Looking at some recent (and not so recent) postings some contributors easily take offence at the comments made by others. This is unavoidable to some extent due to the nature of discussion threads. Emails are equally open to misinterpretation or are read in a different context to that intended by the sender. In my first role as a young engineer I worked

And as I plough through the Sunday Times again I find an article by Matt Rudd listing all the high tech products he has that don't fulfill their promised function. No mention of B&O but the headline....... 'The iPhone's best trick: it works.' Final para re poor performing products......... 'I accept all this without complaint

[quote user="vikinguk"] I still can't make my mind up, though, whether their shares represent a good buy at the present time or whether the risk of total financial failure is still too great. [/quote] So the concensus view (i.e. lack of further positive responses) seems to be that B&O are not a good investment (from a share value point

If your main interest is in radio rather than downloading via iTunes etc then a wireless Roku/Pinnacle unit gives access to thousands of stations. In my case I have a unit connected to a Beomaster 1200 via the tape DIN socket. The cable came from an eBay seller and was wired for the purpose. Graham

But I suspect it must be between 9 volts and 12 volts with around 500mA? Anyway the unit is working now perfectly and I am a satisfied buyer, the only thing I

[quote] Forgetting Apple, the question is... would you invest in B&O at present low share prices, confident that you will get a good return in the long-term? [/quote] So does anyone on this site (maybe our Danish members?) have any real insight into the current share price of B&O and whether they would be a good investment at present prices

[quote user="Dillen"] Welcome to Beoworld ! Basically, I agree with Peter. Still together with f.e. a Beomaster 900 or 1000 they would make a great and well sounding vintage system.

[quote user="moxxey"] [quote user="vikinguk"] B&O sales within Apple stores another approach. [/quote] That's not going to happen. Where's the benefit to Apple? Think about these things! :) Can you imagine B&O saying "we can't shift our own products in our own stores....but do you mind moving some of your

[quote user="vikinguk"] [quote] Where are the market advantages that Apple would obtain from buying B&O? List the advantages? What technological advantages do B&O have that Apple would want?
