Good point about Beolab 8000 system owners. We all have our reasons I guess. I can blame the horrible Beovirus that comes with owning one or come up with practical/logical answers. I'm more in "office" where the Beosystem 6500 has taken ower and my Beogram 8002 are waiting for the next MMC pickup. The Beocenter 9*** has been mentioned

I have 3 remotes for my Beosystem 6500. 1 Beo4 MKII 1 Beolink 1000. Printboard exchanged as it was DOA. 1 MCP 6500 On a day to day using the Beolink 1000 will cover the basics. I don't know how many time you actually set the radio channels in a place but its something I rarely do and you can change the frq. with the Beolink 1000 but not see the

Radio & Cd + Vinyl I can also vote for the Beomaster 8000, Beogram 80002 and CDX. I'm using the smaller Beovox M150 but its a really wonderfull sounding system and a very good introduction to B&O. The Beomaster 8000 is a bit longer than must Beomasteres and weigh about 21kg on its own. That's the cons I've found besides any service

My sister came by a few weeks ago with her husband. I said: I got that tv picked up. When it was for sale I asked him if he could help picking it up. My sister: Wow it looks like new! Me: It's from 1998. I then demonstrated how Beolink works. My sister: Ah Beolink. Not bad for an 11 year old Beovision AV9000.

As for taking less space any 5000, 5500, 6500 or 7000 system would be ideal. The later are more link and beolab friendly. Whatever unit you ad to one of the above systems they can be stacked. This is a huge space saver! Like John Barker I also got the full Beolab 8000 system. The wow factor of a Beosystem 6000('80s) in white made me owner of one

If you pick the full 4500 system it will take alot of space even on a wall.

Welcome to the forum. What to buy? God that is a big question. Novice yes but most B&O after 1978 are mostly one touch for any change so very simple to use. The best answer would to be go with the one you like the best. What do you look for? Jacob Jensen area? David Lewis? What do you need? Beomaster, Beocenter, Beogram, Beogram CD, Beocord? Room

Very nice does not cut it. It's art and Dillen has done it again. Making it come alive! Really awesome. How about some sound clips like last time? It's an honor to follow your repair threads but hey you know that allready. Thumbs up. Any idea for the next B&O to service in public like this?

How do you connect Beolab Pentas to a 5500 which has no powerlink sockets? Do you mean Beovox Penta?

Dillen you deserve it! I just want to thank you on your new purchase. http://www.qxl.dk/pris/hi-fi-tv-video/bang-olufsen/stereoanlaeg-modeller/beosound/gramofon-bo-4002/v/an580778408/ 18£ for a nice looking Beogram 4002 in white. Let us know whats wrong with this one now its in good hands!
