Beolab 4000 or Beolab 6000?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 30, 2014 20:56I have both. 6000 mounted against the walls, the 4000 in wall cabinets. The 4000's produce more and tight base, but the music IMHO sounds much better on 6000's. I would say the 4000's are punchy and a bit bright, the 600…

BV11 software update?
in General Discussion & Questions · May 15, 2013 05:39Have both downloaded and working. Removed a host of problems when listening to my BS5 and BV11 and link rooms. Things just seem to work much better, before I had a lot of random problems. Time lag when playing audio seem…
Sub to pair with BL 8000.2
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 22, 2013 04:49I have used an 8" Velodyne sub for 5yrs now with my 8000 (not 8002). I felt the lab 2 was quite powerful, but not as musical or tight as the Velodyne. The small Velodyne just rounded out the 8000's perfectly. I use a Vel…

New House
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 28, 2013 07:29That's what I have done. I should have all my cat 7 installed to all rooms and future locations done by the end of this week. Wireless was randomly unreliable... And was was just making me unhappy. So I just bit the bull…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 20, 2013 02:36I went through this decision process a month back... I went into it thinking I could get away with wireless. Unfortunately my house is finished - except the basement (which is being finished right now). I am simultaneous…
My first ML/NL product
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2013 16:42I am using both Beomaster and Beosound 5. Dealer (summit NJ) has two sources running to one set of speakers and plans to do the same at my place. I will forget exactly how they will set this up. We had to do this so I co…

What's the WORST product in the B&O line-up
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2013 02:23Beocom5 is THE worst product B&O I have owned. Here's why 1. Line disconnects on calls 2. Creates static noise on calls - such that you have to disconnect and redial - sucks when you are a conference call moderator.... 3…
Idea for A9 add ons
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2013 01:41Not sure if it needs any changes, except some funjpky covers... I say this because its a BeoPlay product - it's more industrial/loft and lower end. I would never use it in the main part of my house (several B&O pieces) -…
