Nothing wrong with your rant. It actually reaffirms my misgivings about selling some of my B&O items on Ebay. Thanks

[quote user="TripEnglish"] In a very very short time Apple Lossless and FLAC will be supported. I started ripping at home to Apple Lossless in anticipation. [/quote] This is good news. Thanks, However these is some confusion. In the Beosound 5 forum, a member recently posted the following email from B&O. We are pleased to see that you

[quote user="beocool"] Just found this on the internet. A lamp designed by Tokujin Yoshioka in collaboration with Yamagiwa. [/quote] I have that lamp. There were actually two versions.......the larger one as in the photo and a smaller one. Artemide has some of the best designs. I am thinking of getting Pirce also.

Jaff, I think you have nailed the problem. It is software and certification testing of that software. There is no doubt there is a problem. A long time ago in the mid 80's, the software or more correctly firmware on my MX5000 tv was done by replacing a chip. Replacing a chip is an expensive thing to do. Today they use flash memory. I have managed

[quote user="TripEnglish"] [quote user="burantek"] Guys, guys, guys... Don't confuse enthusiastic complaining about poor business practice(s) with anti-enthusiasm of the brand and the products!

[quote user="wasti"] Hi there! I have just finished to compilate the list of the TOP 10 designed B&O products. I am wondering if you would make a similar choice? I am open to suggestions :) I might also change the title to TOP 12 if there will be a quarrel ;) Here is the link : Best wishes and thanks for help! [/quote] I think your list

[quote user="DrDimitris"] [quote user="linder"] Since cars are often used as examples here I will mention a car that I think is too expensive. I would really like an Aston Martin but I honestly can't afford it. Its not that it is overpriced because they seem to be doing well. I just don't have the money for sometime like

[quote user="TripEnglish"] Well then let me choose another metaphor: [/quote] I don't think you have to choose any metaphor. Beoworld is turning into an B&O anti-enthusiast site. Its difficult to imagine someone contemplating a B&O purchase would come to this site and think new Bang and Olufsen products are wonderful. However there

[quote user="jk1002"]Jup, and I don't want to move on. I am waiting for them to give me a modern music system. If they can't get the BS5 right, does it mean they go back to CDs? Or does it mean they become a video only company? I wish we could get the product manager here for a Q&A to give him a proper beating :) [/quote] I meant

[quote user="jk1002"]Very weak argument. Sonos has Apple lossless. I would live with a lossy format but want to have gapless playing without converting my mac environment to windows.
