I definitely agree with you, Simon. It's as much a question of taste and needs as of technical spec list this or that. In my case, lowering a screen to a proper height, while keeping the center speaker of the BV9 in operation, resulted in a set-up that I decided against. Maybe if the room had allowed me to rotate sound perspectives, which the BeoSystem

If you use Color Space 1 on the Pioneer screens, you should carry out a professional calibration, going into all the color options. Having done that, you end up with an amazing image. (Color Space 1 has a very rich color palette, and can seem oversaturated if not calibrated.) The Kuro screen blacks is astonishing. I chose not to buy the LX Full HD version

Alex is right here. There's a spectrum of capabilities, brand cachet and craftsmanship that decides what's a fair price, and what isn't.

David: It wasn't as dramatic as ignoring the CEO! lol I think it is my age that makes it hard for some people to take me seriously. I don't feel comfortable making a formal complaint to the manager.

So, what's playing?

wtlc2zpx: But maybe next year they have another idea and come back to a catalogue, or call it a bible. Sounds like you've been up close to corporate decision making!

Calvin: I was wondering if anyone can recommend a decent site/guide for getting OSX onto a PC? My Dell laptop has finally become too intollerably slow and I plan to reformat the drive and start from scratch. Obviously I could stick XP back on, but I'd far rather take advantage of the 'dark side' style installation of Steve Jobs software

Wonderful story, thanks for sharing that! I have a complete set of pristine instruction manuals for the Beomaster 5000, Beogram 5005, Beogram CD 50, and Beocord 5000. In Danish, but if anything that would make it even more authentic for you. Let me know if you're interested and I'll send them to you, free of charge. Just PM me.

Santiago: soundproof: BL4s get a markedly improved bass performance if you mount them on the wall by your listening position, or if you are able to figure a way of getting them up from the surface they have been resting on. Based on my experience and that of others. Ohhh !! I've ONLY mounted both BL4s over the BL3s rubber base stand (which I had
