[quote user="valve1"] All my beocoms are mk2 and they can probably do with an upgrade as I have had them a few years. [/quote] If your system is working perfectly, you don't need an update. Recommended to solve problems and mandatory if you add "new generation" handhelds eg. a BeoCom 5. [quote user="valve1"] The only

One reason could be: part of the installation might be according to standard 568A and an other part or patch/adapter cables are wired according standard 568B. Can easily be cecked using a simple "Ethernet Cable Tester" for approx 50 EUR (your B&O dealer should also have one)

[quote user="Stan"] Huh?... My BS/BM5 combo must be special because it definitely plays gapless (with lossess WMA). [/quote] The OP says the music collection has been ripped to FLAC lossless ... I admit matters have improved on the BM5/BS5 as a result of updates. BSd5/BM5 is playing gapless "most of the time", as long it's in

[quote user="mbee"] I was thinking of a BS5 as a Christmas present, now that's a deal breaker.
