Razlaw, though I didn't experience the double click issue, I would not recommend these to anyone. I'm not sure there's such thing as a "good" player having experienced all the big names either at home or in my shops. I would say a nice simple Samsung is the best bet. BDP-1400 and later seem to be reasonably quick and work well

Interesting. I'm using 5 of the S550s in my new shop with every current model of television. No double presses needed for any action. The only thing that I notice is that there is a latency that I have not experienced with Samsungs or Panasonics. I can imagine that eager fingers might press 2-3 times before the initial press has taken effect. See

The Zektor Box is a Component Video CVS4. However, there is a special B&O version that can be ordered through B&O dealers or directly from Zektor. The price is around $480 I believe. It's a great solution. Blu-Ray, AppleTV, HD Cable/Satellite and room for one more!

From my experience, the BeoVision 7 is not often the first B&O purchase. It is likely that clients will already have some pair of speakers for the task so it may not be necessary to stoop to the level of BeoLab 4s (over which I would likely choose Form 2s on an extension cord). Think of the B&O client who owns a 9000 with 8000s. Now they pop

They're a ways out. If I had to guess I'd say late fall at the earliest, though I'm guessing that Bang & Olufsen is working as hard as they can to launch it in time to miss next Christmas. EDIT: Simon, you will not be disappointed. They are really sexy and answer many of the calls for "features" in a very Bang & Olufsen

I would not repair the BeoSound 2 considering the cost of a new one it may actually be cheaper and have a brand new pair of A8s with it. But if you did decide to go for an iPod, be weary of the Touch. I've had an iPhone since the day it came out and have never been able to migrate completely away from my BeoSound 2 because of all the attention it

When I heard about this "promotion" I immediately started to wonder what the need would be for a BeoVision 8-40? Now we've heard about a BeoVision 8-40 and I think that it has been anticipated both for its potentially low price-point as well as its potential to add in some of the flexibility that has been missing from the BeoVision 8-26

moxxey: TripEnglish: I think that pejoratively remarking that an audio playback device "only" plays back audio is a bit silly With all due respect Trip, only a few weeks ago you were having a go at the BS5. You blow hot and cold. Want me to find the post? For me, and for the price, it needs to do a lot more than store my audio tracks and enable

I think that pejoratively remarking that an audio playback device "only" plays back audio is a bit silly! It's also not the whole truth. The BeoSound 5 is first and foremost a music discovery device. I would suspect that if we fast forwarded a few months where more of us had the opportunity to live with the feature, you'd hear different
