Ghosts in Beocenter 9500?
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 18, 2015 21:27You don't have a cat do you? They are well known for causing haunting behaviour in many a piece of B&o equipment. My cat recently discovered my BM6000 quad setup. Touch controls are not good at 3am when combined with a c…
CD player recommendations for Beomaster 8000
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 20, 2015 17:58The CDX is in my humble opinion the nicest sounding CD player B&O have ever made. It's definitely the one to go for. It was my favourite bit of kit that I had and I used it with many different Beomasters until my dishwas…
I bet this sounds good.
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 14, 2015 16:07I saw this car today and couldn't help but take a photo. I reckon it would sound great, lots of bass and clear high notes 😁
Flash your B&O - new thread!
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 1, 2015 03:13I may be slightly biased but I think a white 70's 6000 quad system is the ultimate looking B&O system. Not the best sounding but beautiful and with a huge wow factor even now. People can't believe it's 40 years old until…

Beomaster 611RG vs. 900RG
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 5, 2015 12:55I've got a 900 compact which is available for sale if you are in the SE of the UK.
I don't understand listings like this.
in eBay - the right way! · Jul 5, 2015 10:57Looking at eBay and came across this listing. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bang-Olufsen-BeoVox-S45-Matched-Pair-Rosewood-3-way-Loudspeakers-T6302-/261917674436?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3cfb828bc4 Surely no one will bu…
A2 or Beolit 15
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 30, 2015 17:38I've got home, opened the box and fired it up. Sounds great! I'm a satisfied customer. 😁
A2 or Beolit 15
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 30, 2015 13:43Well, the decision has been made. A trip to my local dealership and working out what I'd use it for I ended up getting this. Black and copper A2
A2 or Beolit 15
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 29, 2015 20:53I'm undecided on which one of these to get to enable me to sit in the sun listening to the Ashes this summer. The problem as I see it is that the Beolit is a better bit of kit but the colours really put me off. I much pr…
Beocenter 9500 for FREE!!
in General Discussion & Questions · May 17, 2015 12:46I've got a Beocenter 9500 which someone can have for nothing or its going to the dump. Don't get too excited though! It has no metal panels, no glass and the CD doesn't work. Basically it's a load of spares if you need t…
Beomaster 6000 Quad back and sounding great
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 14, 2015 18:29The 900 compact is indeed a nice looking radiogram. It's not too big but as you say it needs to be longer if I want the Beocord 5000!
Beomaster 6000 Quad back and sounding great
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 13, 2015 13:50I would get a Beocord 5000 just to complete the set even though I'd never use it. It would look nice
Beomaster 6000 Quad back and sounding great
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 12, 2015 19:53My Bm6000 had developed a habit of dropping a couple of the channels once it warmed up had never really worked via the remote so I got in touch with Tim Jarman and he agreed to take a look. Well I picked it up last week …
New A2 colour
in General Discussion & Questions · May 10, 2015 10:55I went to my local dealers about a month ago with the intention of getting a Beolit 15 but was put off by the colours. Pastel pink really isn't what I was looking for. They also didn't have the blue in stock but even tha…
Your latest addi(c)tion?
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 27, 2015 16:49[quote user="Ben_S"] Beaker, where on earth do you find these rare things? Looks lovely though! Does it work? Even better to find it with the manuals and catalogues as well! Ben [/quote] It does work even though I'm sure…

Your latest addi(c)tion?
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 25, 2015 18:31Yes it is a Beo / Beo610 / TR26. I'm not sure what the correct name actually is, I think it depends on location. I've got a user manual which calls it a TR26 and brochures that call it the other names. Anyway, I'd never …

Car Talk
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Mar 21, 2015 12:28I always vowed to never drive a car younger than me and kept that idea going for quite a while by driving 60's cars. I had a Hillman SuperMinx and a Sunbeam Rapier which was great. Then I went a bit crazy and got a boy r…
