timhanna: Personally, id love to see a beocentre 2 with built in, updated via net, Blueray player :) I Agree!

Do you have ML and Powerlink at the back of your BC1, Martin? Are you using the Beo4? Which speakers have you got? p.

I think that is why the BM5 has the same size as the BM1.

Although it is very sad* for the staff that was made redundant today, it all seems to make sense for the company. I know some of us love their B&O MP3 player and mobile phones, but today the competition is immense and offer products that even compete with B&O in term of design and usability, while being more affordable. If the new platform includes

Puncher: I can understand the BS5 not having a CD drive but why on earth couldn't it be on the Beomaster - cost can't be the issue! It is a design problem as the Beomedia is integrated at the back of Beovision 9 for example. You could not access it. It is supposed to be a hidden box. I would have liked to see a signgle CD player and an analog

Any similar upgrade for Beocenter 2500?

The downside of connecting the speaker on the TV, is that you lose 2 way control of the BM. It still remains the recommanded solution. p.

In that case that would work. RADIO would turn the BS 2300 on. AV + RADIO would turn the BC1 radio on. Why have you not connected the 2, do not want to listen to the TV sound on the BS speakers sometimes? p.

A question I have asked in the forum a few times, is can you have both in the same system. They complement each other perfectly, one does Radio and CD, the other one N.RADIO and N.MUSIC. At the moment the answers seems to be that is is not possible, but it would be a mistake if B&O had not thought of a way to integrate the 2 together as potetial

This solution would not work if all speakers were connected to the BC1. I believe there is another way to do it with the BC1. I remember seeing it on this forum. I do not know if it is in the standard menu or in the hidden menu. p.
