By themselves, no. You can however connect your computer to the BS4 and then use the iPod Touch to control iTunes through the BS4.

Agree - the essence of B&O should be joy - joy of use, joy of ownership and joy of performance. If you have to make excuses, where is the joy. I don't care about the cost, though clearly you cannot price yourselves out of a market, but I want something out of the ordinary. What we have at present is a veneer - I want it to be solid. As said
-
The problem I have is that there are times when B&O make fabulous kit and I want them , but other times when the equipment just doesn't stand out. Stand out products for me were the 2400 system in 1980 - remote control, no buttons and good sound, compared to boring stack systems from other makes - Beosystem 5000 - the remote was light years

If it was set as a link set, it should be option 6. I would set it to option 2 and see what happens. This will not break anything!! To set options, with the set off, press Stand by and LIST at the same time. Then press LIST until OPTION? is shown and then press GO. Press LIST until V.OPT is shown (it may be the first one shown anyway) and then press

I do not think the A2 has been available for some time. The price for the BS9000 is clearly the price a new one would cost now rather than the 2001 price which was nearer £2500. On the value of the A2; the price it is worth is clearly what the market will pay - I wouldn't pay £400 for one but that is because I don't like it! I will

They will work fine - the 5500 is used in MCL systems which will often result in difficult loads. Remember also that the 4 Ohm rating is just an estimate - all speakers have different values at different frequencies. Which speakers are you planning to use? The efficiency is probably more relevant anyway.

Your screen will be a D8 screen. These are not easily available and B&O would replace it with a D10 screen. Needless to say this is only the screen so you will not be that much better off though it will be an improvement and clearly will be new. Your insurance company should stump up though! The only complication is that the screen has different

The jargon in this case involves two issues: The first is Datalink - this is the language used that is sent to the Beogram by the Beomaster or Beocenter. It can be seen to be fitted to all Beograms with a 7 pin DIN plug except a few early versions which come from the very early 80s - Beogram 4004 and 2400/2/4 essentially. All decks after these can be
-
But the 5500 has RCA plugs as well - these are the ones I use as it is not necessary to mess round with DIN cables. The 7000 only has DIN plugs.

Agree with martin about the overload circuit. My MS150s sounded as if they were blown until the oxidisation was cleaned off - now sound as good as new.
