Thank you for the update. First, your room does not sound like you will have a problem with skip, or sounds bouncing off surfaces such as linoleum. Carpeting, and foam panels ( on ceilings, or walls ) will trap sound and make your system sound more clear. Second: Your drawing took a bit of work, and is very helpful.

Some note on the transition from our BS 3200 to a Beosound 4: Stunning ! Major change in audio clarity, with our CD and SD recorded music.

Timeless ? The time just ran out on our BS 3200. I came home from a 3 week business trip, and the CD clamper would not lift to accept a new CD. Some of the HD albums now have dropouts. So, it went to the store for a repair estimate. Only 600 Euro. ( Now how much was that BS 4 again ? )

Pulled cable all day today (Cat 7) inside silicone conduit. Three floors levels is a lot of walls. I spoke with someone who attended Beonet/Encore training last week. Looking forward to the new product party.

Good to hear you identified the source.
