  • Re: Favorite David Lewis design

    I keep switching back and forth between these two ways of setting them up - loving how Lewis' BV8 matches the Beosystem range from decades earlier.

    [quote user="Maab"] Hello again Could you please tell me: is this an RCA cable for the line connection? [/quote] No, that is most likely the end of one of your SPDIF-cables for a digital connection. You use it to daisy-chain your speakers - Source>Cable to Speaker A>Cable from Speaker A to Speaker B. (You set which speaker is supposed

    1. Take your watch off your wrist and rings off your fingers. You may also want to consider not wearing a belt while getting the speakers in place. You don't want to scratch the large aluminium platter once you begin. 2. Removing the box is easy to do. 3. The speakers are easy to move. Just do what they do in Struer, or the B&O installer does

  • Re: Beolab3 and Macbook Pro

    A wise set-up. You get a very good signal out of the MBP, your DAC processes it, and you can control volume from the DAC. This way, the inferior DAC in the MBP is not part of the signal chain, and your speakers are protected from surges, particularly if you should connect or disconnect via the minijack on the MBP directly to the speakers, as I see some

  • Re: Apple & B&O: is imitation the best form of flattery??

    I want to add something to the discussion. What's the essence of B&O? When they're at their best, they simplify their users' lives, adding convenience and premium quality to the A/V experience. It's in their very first product, where they liberated consumers from having to use accumulators when listening to their radios - they called

  • Re: Apple & B&O: is imitation the best form of flattery??

    I don't think voice control is the key to Apple's TV-sets, it's the integration to the cloud. When I updated to iOS5, I suddenly found I could access all the movies and tv-series I had bought over the years on all my Apple peripherals, including the iPhone. Everything I had purchased over the ATV, was available everywhere else, through the

    I actually love/like/enjoy B&O more than I do Apple's products. I'm not out to bash B&O - I have spent lots of money on B&O products through the years, and I've had/have great times using them. B&O lost the plot, they've had terrible management for close to twenty years, yet are still alive and still rank among the world's

    [quote user="SWISS_2"] On the subject of good product invention, versus patent lawsuits filed by Apple, here is an example of how aggressive Apple can actually be: http://www.thelocal.de/society/20111026-38449.html Cease and desist order from Cupertino, California ? I don't believe anyone would confuse the two companies. do you ? There
