I agree - superb post and puts it much as I think. I think it is great that all sorts of products exist to allow each and every person to listen to music in whichsoever way they like. I do however have a confession of my own - I now listen to music mainly on non B&O. I still have my main system plumbed through the house but it doesn't reach

I think there is room for both - the Linn fanatic will be unimpressed with the B&O system sound and the B&O fanatic will despise the compromises to life necessitated by the Linn system. Both will be partly correct - the B&O will sound extremely good and the Linn will no doubt allow tweaking of the sound in all sorts of unimaginable ways

Well found!! I think the point is that when the BeoNet does come out, this wiring will allow the new system to work through this wiring where fitting masterlink cable will not.

That is my old Beocord 2400 that you are using as your avatar! I can tell by the non matching reels! Now that was a beautifully built machine!

The problem with column speakers is the small size of the bass speakers. I am afraid a good big one will always beat several good small ones. The speakers which seem to be most popular are the 8000 and 5000, both of which are always going to be limited by the engineering compromises in their design. They are unexpected looking because no sane person

For a very short time, there were round MCL eyes which look very similar to those used for ML. Similar to the BL 7000 charger but no charging connections. Rare to find. I think they are very nice!

It sounds to me as if the Beomaster 5500 needs servicing - electronics do drift out of true and it may be that some components are now causing the system to shut down. One sign of this is if the device runs hot. These systems are serviced quite easily if you are electronically trained so I would find a repair shop. The manuals are on site for silver

That would be great! Thank you.
