Thanks for this informative post. Very pleased to have read about your experiences. Simon.

Well done on your win, looking forward to seeing the pictures of you're new setup. Simon.

Steve, I didn't quote you and you're attached quotes to save on space! You raise an interesting point but there are more than enough people with plenty of money ready and willing to splash out on B&O equipment, so this alone should be driving B&O to come out with better products. Chris, it also depends on area of course so dealers in

Absolutly. I would never buy B&O again if I couldn't trade in what I already had. No point.

355f: Beobird: 1. If you want the best picture and a pretty cool design you should go for the Pioneer. The XD versions have digital outs, so it's easy to connect it to your BS4. The best looking 42" Pioneer is the 428XD (not the 4280 with the rounded speaker). 2. If you wan't a design tv for a good value, you should buy the Loewe Connect

I think the 1s are huge and if they are not going to fit into the rest of the home then avoid them, regardless of sound quality. For me B&O is more about interior design and matching over the sound quality. At least, that's why I personally buy into the brand but many others will have different reasons. The 8000s are superb speakers and I think

If you prefer to stay with the B&O brand then I would suggest buying a second-hand Avant 32 RF DVD if you can find one. It sounds like the screen size would be just right for your living space and the picture quality is the best in its class. I recently bought a 7-40 with 7-2 speaker but its not a great TV and definitely does not offer value for

Hi saf, good to see you around. I was starting to miss your posts, I always enjoy reading them. I hear what you are saying and I knew that was coming (about me being part of the problem and donating to charity etc) which I do, but I could do alot more you're right. Whilst I agree with your points I also think that there is still a lot more that

Hi Henry, I use the BeoLab 7-2 speaker which is pretty good. The original plan was to have a BV5 (non-HD), BeoLab 9s at the front, BeoLab 3s at the back and the BeoLab 7-1 as centre speaker. A BeoCentre 2 to go with it all for the playing of DVDs. I should have stuck with this in hindsight but nevermind. Instead, I bought the 7-40 with the 7-2 speaker

Thanks for the correction, a much more reasonable price. I am looking forward to seeing the BS5 but I certainly won't be buying one because I don't really make use of digital media. I only play music from my PC when I am using it and I had to rip my CDs to store stuff on the SD card for use with my BeoSound 3. I get much more pleasure having
