B&O Gift Cards?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 30, 2011 23:02Did this just start? I was at B&O store on Sunday and nothing advertized or mentioned while I was there.
Who are these people?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 1, 2011 23:04I like joining the 1% club - a bargain at 30 pounds. Plus that first prize - had me salivating for a moment...

what type of lamp on the MX8000 picture?
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 31, 2011 11:15It is actually a very neat light when seen in person - the picture does not do it justice. And it does come in several diameters, and there is now a LED option. An even more imressive light is the Raimond light - http://…

New 7-40 - any word?
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 25, 2011 14:44This is all sounding very disjointed. 3D or no 3D, unclear technology path, unclear differentiation between future 7-40 and BV10 series, dealers who are unclear what will be available, the surreal customer experience at …
New 7-40 - any word?
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 24, 2011 11:29That is unfortunate as I was hoping for the backlit LED technology, as from what I have seen from other vendors it is superior to LED edge lit. I did see the 7-55, and while it looked wonderful, it is far too large and d…

Article on B&O business with Apple from Business DK
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 27, 2011 21:52Apple is the highest grossing per square metre/foot retailer in the world. So an interesting point is how many people would go to Apple and plunk down $999 for a Beosound 8, or $1000 speakers. For Apple it is all about m…

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 11, 2011 11:42Disclosure - I am in the networking business and i do sell Cisco. But just to add what others have said, you definitely do not need a Cisco access point/router for this - anyone would work. But I would recommend a dual r…

Bang & Olufsen will present new corporate strategy on the 17th of august.
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 13, 2011 03:00I think B&O needs two things - a market growth strategy and a revamped retail strategy, at least from my experience in North America. The stores are completely uninviting, and once you make it through the door you are ei…

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 11, 2011 18:24Glad to help - I have been using this for many years (since the laser on my BS9000 is broken) and it works very nicely. I only wish the airport had a better DAC, and would also not occasionally lose the connection (but a…
Can BeoSound 5 Encore connect to AVM "FRITZ!Box 7390" WLAN router?
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 11, 2011 18:10First hard connect the Encore to the 7390 - that should tell you that you are set up properly to the internet via the router. Now try wirelessly by... Turning off all security on the 7390 and see if the Encore then conne…

Pc2 and iPad2
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 7, 2011 18:07Correct - the ipad communicates wirelessly to the AE. From the AE you need a cable that goes from the headphone jack on the EA to the BS9000 AUX jack. If you go to a B&O store they should have one. Sounds Heavenly who ha…
