        It is not the starting sound LEVEL, but the sound QUALITY that seems have to been improved.

        Overall: I still like the system

        In addition the BeoSound 9000 as a stereo system for my BeoLab 9 is well integrated and also controlled by my BeoRemote 1.

          Am I right?

          After the last software update the sound seems to have improved (Life TV (Satellite), B&O Radio).

          Sound of Bluray and Apple TV was always ok.

              Dear 9Lee, for about 15 years I am a member in this forum.

              Many thanks for the great support I got by many members, for great entertainment in the Wednesday group, for the prize draws (with my Christmas present in 2017: BeoSound 5!) and for the Beoworld tour to Struer in 2012.

              Sorry that I am not the guy to take over.

              But I hope that this forum will prevail the next decades.

              And I hope to see some members in real life again, for example maybe in August near Deal where I am going to watch the Recumbent Bicycle World Championship in Betteshanger Park. It doesn’t look too far away from Eastbourne.

              At last again: Great thank you!

                Merry Christmas to all!

                Here with Udo Lindenberg:
                Last night at a quarter to four
                I had an apparition
                Suddenly an angel stood at the door
                and asked me for my opinion

                 

                IMG_2040 Kopie

                He was pale as a sheet with a white robe
                and he raised his shimmering silver hand
                and he said: Good day, you have been chosen
                The world needs a new Messiah
                And then he shaved my head
                and said: Your name is no longer Udo
                your name is now Jeremiah

                Then he asked if I would agree
                and I said: Yes, that would be okay
                At first I didn’t think it was so cheerful
                with the bald head and all that
                but then I said: Yes, I’ll go like this
                The ceremony went pretty quickly
                because he had to leave again straight away
                but then a wing got stuck
                and he was desperate:
                Jeremias, what am I going to do now?

                Then it worked out with the take-off after all
                and I was alone again
                and only then did I realize
                what had happened
                and a tremor went through my legs
                and now I’m standing here
                and my name is Jeremias
                I don’t know exactly what you do there either
                but somehow, of course, somehow
                we’ll manage
                there was one before
                who did that too

                Hallelujah, hallelujah!

                May this one, whom Udo Lindenberg mentions in the third verse, still contribute to a peaceful union in the one humanity. Belonging to a particular association is absolutely not necessary for this.

                Text: Udo Lindenberg
                Photo: A door in my appartment. I discovered the angel just a few days ago.

                Here the text by Udo Lindenberg in German

                Letzte Nacht um viertel vor vier
                da hatte ich eine Erscheinung
                Plötzlich stand ein Engel in der Tür
                und fragte mich nach meiner MeinungEr war kreidebleich mit ‘nem weißen Gewand
                und er hob seine silbrig schimmernde Hand
                und er sagt: Guten Tag, du bist auserkoren
                die Welt braucht einen neuen Messias
                Und dann hat er mir noch den Kopf geschoren
                und gesagt: Du heißt jetzt nicht mehr Udo
                du heißt jetzt Jeremias

                Dann hat er noch gefragt, ob ich einverstanden wär’
                und ich sagte: Ja, das wär’ ganz okay so
                Erst fand ich’s nicht so heiter
                mit der Glatze und so weiter
                aber dann hab’ ich gesagt: Ja ich geh’ so
                Mit dem Zeremoniell ging es ziemlich schnell
                denn er mußte auch gleich wieder los
                doch dann klemmte ein Flügel
                und er ganz verzweifelt:
                Jeremias, was mach’ ich jetzt bloß?

                Dann hat’s mit dem Abflug ja doch noch geklappt
                und ich war wieder alleine
                und dann wurd’ mir erst klar
                was geschehen war
                und ein Zittern ging mir durch die Beine
                und nun steh’ ich hier
                und ich heiße Jeremias
                ich weiß auch noch nicht so genau, was man da macht
                aber irgendwie, na klar, irgendwie
                krieg’n wir das schon hin
                da gab’s doch schon mal einen
                der hat das auch gebrachtHalleluja, Halleluja!

                      To be sure: The price tag of 5,000 € will be for one speaker?

                          Sorry for the multiple posts, but this topic got me to do some thinking! What if the somewhat affordable Theatre was a problem for B&O. Like many people who already have B&O speakers and wanted an update to the Beosystem 4, the Theatre was a dream come true, albeit we had to stretch our budget for it quite a bit.

                          A dream came true, for me too, as i own the right spekers for a surround system.

                          But the price increase will be a nightmare coming true for some who just wanted to wait a little bit to see the experiences of us early adopters.

                          All in all I prefer a brand for people with exquisite taste to a brand for people with extraordinary high income.

                          (Aunty Edit told me about some typos)

                            Before you visit the store, be warned. Unless you get there by bicycle your purse will be lighter and your car heavier. ?

                              Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.” (This he said to show by what kind of death he was to glorify God.) And after saying this he said to him, “Follow me.”

                              John 21:18-19

                              RIP Peter

                              My condolences to his family and his friends.

                                            It even happens when the PUC-cable is loose (happened with my BluRay player). I hope for a solution (my dealer too).
