Thanks for the valuable imnformation guys - I can see from your varoius replies that the best utilization of the BS5 is achieved with a bit of effort and good organisation skills. I'd be happy to buy it as long as it adds value to the overall B&O experience. I do get fed up changing CD's in the BS9000 and I also think the BS5 is a lovely

is this Beosound just a glorified ipod? i have Beosound 9000/beolab 5's and I have an apple mini on back of my BeoVision 7- 40 with itunes....what would be the advantage of getting the Beosound5, apart from the fact its lovely to look at?

sounds as doggy as a a traveller offering to tarmacadem ur driveway for £200....wouldn't touch it with a bargepole....A lot of the high value items stolen in the UK riots are selling internationally, so if its not a complete swindle, you could in fact be buying stolen goods....the only way you can be sure is to ask him/her for the ID number

well, it was a combination solution....first the beocom2 needed a software update, happily supplied by my local dealer here in Dublin, then it was a matter of unregisterig the Beocom5's from the beolink2 and then registering the Beocom 2 first to the Beolink2, then re-registering the Beocom5's back onto the Beolink2. its now working a dream

hey, thanks for the advice as it worked:) really appreciate it and its working a dream now:) kind regards Paul

Hi there, can anyone tell me if there is a compatibility issue between a beoline2/beocom 5 and a new Beocom 2 unit I just bought but cannot register. When I try to register the new Beocom 2, it does find the base number, but then it fails to registerand gives me a REGISTRATION FAILED message.I then tried several beocom 2 units in shop in case the unit

i bought them in early december i think. im gona give my dealer a call and see if he has the latest sw 1.70. :) cheers paul

i bought two of them and i might as well have two tins of beans sitting on my tables for all the use they are - they are junk in current setup, so unless the resolve the sound problems with a new sw upgrade soon, mine too are going back - and even using them with screen away from ear the sound is poor. The sound on my speaker oneconstantly fades in

Thanks a lot guys - at least i now know there is a solution that will probably work and turn this beautifully crafted aluminium disk into an actual usable spaeker phone:) ill let u know when i get the upgrade Paul-Dublin

Thanks Yann for the update and ill contact my dealer again on monday to see if he has any news on the sw update:):):) cheers p
