I like it a lot also. I think I will plan on doing the same setup. Looks great!

[quote user="TripEnglish"] [quote user="Dave"] [quote user="linder"] Trip. I hope the music system has a place for me to plugin a Beogram 7000 besides the Beosound 5. I don't want to get too digital!

[quote user="TripEnglish"] [quote user="jk1002"] When you look at the new audio system how it was described in the last years financial report it said that it links to an Ipod or a Beosound 5 system. I 2nd the 2 way remote, but I am thinking they first should spend some time gather feedback what people really want from a BS5. For

[quote user="burantek"] [quote user="PhilLondon"] Video, Photos and Internet are not displayed on the BS5, but on the TV screen. This is a BM5 feature not a BS5. [/quote] OH! A BM5! Now that this confusion is settled... The original topic sounds even more convincing! So, has anyone ordered their iPad yet? [/quote] I was able to place

I should hope the Beosound 5 is unfinished. Beosound 5 is after all a computer and those of us who own one know very well there will be periodic updates.

The Europeans have, frankly, better aesthetic taste and also tend to live in smaller dwellings where the combination of size and sound are

I ran the software update function and got a complete 100 percent download. The update was loaded and the system restarted normally. I looked at the release notes which said the update is about controlling Beomaster 5 from linked TVs to display photos and album art. My Beosound 5 is a stand alone system which is running normally.
