Ah, I see. That makes things a little more clear. Thanks. One more question - if you had another BS5, in another room (ie. two BS5s), could they both connect to the one central BM5? Surely it would make more sense if the BS5 was able to connect and control the BM5 wirelessly? So you didn't need to cable-up between a remote BS5 on another floor and

[quote user="KingOfSnake"] Many Dealers use the pre-owned companies to their benefit, easing cash flow without getting involved in capital outlay or storing/maintenance of products, and similarly not getting involved with VAT so a good relationship with any of the pre-owned companies works well. Separate limited companies would need to be

[quote user="seethroughyou"] i suppose i just need time to accept the design and the way in my eyes in looks anorexic.. [/quote] To be fair, you are right, in some ways. It took me a while to get used to it and I'm still not convinced about the user-interface. Album covers are too small. My other concern is the BM5 which I feel is too

[quote user="Mr10Percent"] B&O may want.. [/quote] Hence my question. We don't know what they want. When B&O owned the Bath store there was far far more flexibility than when it is/was a franchised store! My question simply is to ask whether - in this recession - that whether they would consider a wider and improve trade-in policy

How would you do it any better? The design and functionality appears to have gone down well. Sure, it's a bit too expensive, but it's designed well. Simply buy what makes *you* happy, not what will, potentially, make others say 'wow'. I can't see how a 13-year-old product can 'wow' anyone anymore. Walk around Bath and BS9000s

[quote user="beojeff"] Welcome to the club of BeoSound 5 owners, Moxxey! You're not going to regret your purchase. The BS5 must be connected..[/quote] Thanks for the reply Jeff, but could you re-read the questions? I know how it's connected to the BM5. I know how it connects to the TV. I need to know how it connects to my other kit

I don't really buy my kit to make others go 'wow'. Almost no-one does. I have to point out the BL5s to people and they simply say 'they're big!'. Maybe the people who come around my place aren't so fickle to be wow'ed by a 6-CD product from the mid-90s? To be fair, it's been around a bit. It's hardly new.

[quote user="DGeorge"] totally agree. £1k or so cheaper and might have been able to justify it.... [/quote] Well, I've changed my mind and taken the plunge as I managed to negotiate an excellent pre-price rise deal with another dealer, with a discount! I've asked some questions though about linking with other kit.

Taken the plunge and bought the BS5/BM5 based around a fantastic pre-price rise trade-in deal I've negotiated. Should be fitted in the next couple of weeks. However, I'm confused about the linking of the products to existing kit. I understand how the BS5 links to the BM5; that's clear. What's confusing me is this: I want the BS5 in my

I have another question, but I bet Lee won't want to ask :) I'm confused about the trade-in policy offered by a dealer. Despite my BV7-40 MKIII being in mint condition, some dealers simply wouldn't accept it as a trade-in against the new MKIV. Some didn't want it full-stop. However, walk in to my local dealer and they don't advertise
