[quote user="evman140"] Radioshack is still around however I went to the website and found nothing. I even stopped into one of their stores near my house and the two people operating the store have never even seen a 2 pin din (had a pic on my phone). They directed me to Best Buy... (they have never even heard of B&O). [/quote] I probably

Try radio shack (If that still exists ?) Good (audio) electronics repair centers should be able to get some I suppose

[quote user="evman140"] I will be doing all kinds of experiments now Just to be on the safe side, if I run both channels to a single Cona, it could handle the 110w? I will not be connecting any other speakers to my Conas. I just wanted some more bass. You will all probably think im bass hungry when I tell you I already have a pair of BeoLab

Cona's have simple crossovers, basically a couple of caps and a coil per side.

[quote user="tournedos"] But if you do have the cabling or can build it - go ahead and try this and tell us how it worked! Just go easy on the volume; if you connect both Cona voice coils and a normal speaker on the same channel, the total load on the amp will probably be slightly more than with two pairs of normal speakers connected. Does

At 168$ the beomaster with a working mcp panel is a fair deal. I payed 200$can for mine. However the 5000 series is getting on in years and obviously needs some TLC (caps replacement and some other expert fine tuning) to really bring out it's best. I have a full system which I am slowly restoring (I am not a tech person, so it takes a lot of research

Hi Tom, welcome to Beowolrd. congratulations on your new toys. The penta's are fine speakers and finding some at reasonable price and in good condition is very hard. As a fellow North American I know all about how hard it is to find B&O items second hand. Ebay sometimes being your best bet. I do think they need powerlink MK2 cables , but just

A double sub setup is not that uncommon, but it totally depends on which speakers you will pair them with. I did have 2 cona's and a similar setup (CX50 paired with a cona each) before I upgraded the speakers from cx50 to cx100. Besides having obviously more bass (from which the CX50's definately benefit), l did barely noticed the extra benefit

Hi, For a compact unit, the beosound3000 (I have a 4000) is working perfectly fine. The sound is largely dependant on the quality of speakers and their build-in amps. I suggest a pair of Beolab 4000 as speakers with it. They are affordable, well designed, look great and give a real nice sound. For a little bit more you can get some BL6000 which will

I use a mac mini as I found the apple tv just too limited in it's original setup and hacking it is just a temp. patch to extend it's limited functionality. The mac mini (not the latest model !!) is being used as a dedicated mediacenter connected wirelessly to a nas. I have tried xmbc which I didn't really like and boxee which is just aggravating
