Puncher: Jandyt: Thanks for starting this thread John. Up until now, I had no intentions of ever having a Beosound 2. I see those that do have them, enthuse greatly, I will get one shortly. Andy T. I can understand an enthusiast having a BS2 but, with any degree of practicallty, surely a big(ger) iPod wins the day! - more songs, at a higher (even lossless

Thanks Affineur It's really pleasing to see how many people have taken the time to praise the Beosound 2 - it must be a special piece of kit, in spite of some of the more obvious omissions when compared to the plethora of alternatives out there. I guess sometimes the simple things just work the best! One thing I did pick up on: am I right in thinking

Thanks guys - your experiences mean a lot to me. Am definitely on the look out for one now. I guess eBay is the best place, unless anyone has a good one they want to part with?! John
