Pictures would help, but what you could always do is place a cabinet in front of the sockets to house any external units (such as Sky Boxes, Media Servers or Games Consoles etc...), and place the BeoVision 7 next to this on a floor stand.

Craig: Alex: I'll be interested to see the BeoSystem 3 based BeoVision 7, as so far IMO the picture on the BeoVision 9/4 + BeoSystem 3 surpasses that of the CRTs. Still not sure about the other sets, and most certainly not the current non-BS3 based BV7!! Agree with you Alex, the BS3 based BV7 will be very intersting to see. After seeing HD versions

I really hope Soma FM doesn't go down, I live off their stations, particularly DroneZone and BeatBlender. As for artists getting more for their music, this has the complete opposite effect. Even with these regulations and fees in place, artists will still get a tiny amount of money directly from having their music played on the radio. What they DO benefit

I doubt it was something wrong with the cable if as you say, you've tried different ones. The easiest way to see if it is a phasing issue is simply just to have a listen. When you sit down in front of a well set up sound system, you should be at the corner of a triangle with the speakers at the other corners, each one being exactly the same distance

Apple TV: Only works with iTunes, limited to 160 gb drive (as opposed to 250gb in BM1), no fast scrolling from Beo4. BeoMedia: Larger, x6 higher cost, incredibly limited video functionality, only works with BeoPort, functionality with Macs is pretty poor, difficult to set up, doesn't work with older sets, no ability to stream from a computer, no HD

Sounds to me like the sound travelling down the ML cable is wired out of phase! When you sit in between the two front (left and right) speakers, do you get any 'phantom sounds' appearing between the two speakers (such as vocals), or does it sound 'vague', meaning you cannot position the sound anywhere? If it is sounding vague, then I would say you've

I would also personally go for the Apple TV. More functionality and a better interface IMO! The BeoMedia 1 does officially now support Macs, but it's really not that elegant to be honest.

The IMG tag will not work for what we want! Sure it will let you embed a picture in a post, but enough people are struggling with tags etc... already, they don't allow thumbnail browsing (through images), the layout of all the threads would be wrong for an image gallery (long list of text) and a lot of people haven't even got a clue what a 'pixel' or

That's not really very reliable though, and means you cannot do any kind of 'processing' with the image (resizing for example). IMG tags also aren't that great, you can already do this but it's just not very good.
