i like #4 also... if you really want a bs5 -just wait a year or two -and get one for free (ala serenata) when you buy your new bs9000 Mk. IV in rosewood.

just my .02 cents... that price does seem high... you are approaching beolab 3000/4500/5000 territory. of course, if you wanted to stay w/ passives, you could probably pick up a couple pair(s) of other types for that $$$... s55 / s60 / mc120.2 etc... hmmm... i wonder if anyone has any available??? w/ stands!

Chrisreunion: Now the next step is, how to get the BeoLabs..anyone fancy a trip to Reunion? How about: I send my wife one way? on a less serious note... CONGRATS to you and everyone else!

solderon29: Any standard 12 volt unregulated power unit will do,as a regulator is built into the B&O unit. can anyone elaborate on this? the mcl2av states 15vdc - 250ma max... what is the range of usable adapters for these, assuming polarity is correct and adapter plug is correct size? i have a 12v 500ma that fits... thx in advance and happy holidays

on another "service manual" note: does a master list exist? re: being in the xmas mindset... i have tons of manuals and other miscellaneous print. when (if) i get the time -i would be happy to share these w/ beoworld! i can scan and provide pdf files -no problem. would take some time obviously, so i would hate to duplicate anything the site

oops, i'm late... [;-(]

well then my 1% of "not sure" sounds like a winner, er, ah, ...loser rather! wow, they sound so similar! if i get a iphone for xmas -shazam will be my first dload!

hi all, just a quick thought i had... as a new A9 user and having an existing beocom 6000 network, i just love the ability of controlling my a/v with both devices, but... 1.) wouldn't it be cool to have the top control of the A9 rotated for volume control? and on the same note... 2.) wouldn't it be cool if when "a" or "v"

@ apopboy very well put! i agree w/ everything you said! p.s. welcome to beoworld!

well, tried to help you out "long-hand..." artist: Yann Tiersen 99% sure... song: Comptine d'Un Autre Été: L'après Midi he is on itunes...
