    Im using 18’s as fronts and BL3 for rears. Sounds great but I want to replace the BL3’s with BL12.3 for more bass in the rear of the room.

    Just FYI 7.01 is already being tested and fixes a lot of other problems.  Hopefully it addresses these issues as well.

    Oh my god how they look and how much?  I was against black ones from B&O as it kills the vibe.

    BS 9000. It still delights me every time I use it.

    I own one for years and I can confidently say that in my opinion it is the worst designed remote ever made by B&O and possibly others.

    It’s not backlit. The buttons all look the same.  The layout of the buttons is totally illogical.  It’s impossible to use in the dark.  You cannot use it by feel either. The POWER OFF button is wedge between the volume buttons which is easy as hell to hit accidentally.  The most commonly used buttons are placed in the middle of the remote totally randomly, and again impossible to find in the dark or feel your way to it.  It is not rechargeable and to change the batteries you have to get a SIM card ejector and take it apart into fiddly 4 bits.

    But ya. It looks pretty cool.  Until you try to use it.

    I find it very odd that this problem still happens on ethernet as this sounds like it’s interference over wifi?

    Hmm interesting. Although I don’t want to have to use a separate app to control my devices. I have a BS9000 and all I did was get a used Essence and hooked that up to it with all the features I need like multiroom, airplay, bluetooth, Spotify and B&O radio. No issues at all.

    Change the theatres L/R to act as Sub centre. I did and works great.

    I think those are additional ethernet ports so you can plug in your Apple TV or PS5 etc.

    I dunno I have a pair of BL3’s and they have very little bass even when listening to 80’s pop music.

    This version of windows is not safe to have on the internet.  It will compromise your whole network.

    Ouch, thats a good deal? Did the Moment cost 5x more than that combo.

    I was at B&O when the Moment first came out and the dealer explained it to me I could hardly keep a straight face when he told me the price. I ask him why I couldn’t do the same thing with an iPad for 1/10 the price he didn’t know what to say.

    I loved the idea of it and the look but the price was stupid. I also watched as B&O abandoned the product and it was really disappointing to watch.

    My essence’s work great,  never crash. But I agree the halo is just a volume and my buttons device.  It really doesn’t do much without the intelligence which it really should come with for the price its at.

    Does the stage allow you to connect other speakers? I thought it didn’t?

    That aside the 8000 don’t have much bass but the Beolab 2 would make up for it mostly.  When it comes to movies though the 9 would be much better.

    That might be part of it. I’m also not used to seeing traditional rectangle speaker  boxes from B&O.  The sub looks cool though.

    They never released that feature. They’re kind of pretending they never mentioned it to begin with. Who knows if they will but if they don’t, that was false advertising
