About half BeoSound 5.

Last I heard, the adaptor will surface toward the end of summer/early autumn.

I'm waiting for the holo-deck from Star Trek: The Next Generation. (Also waiting for the multi-teired glass chess boards as well).

Putting a headphone jack instead of an Aux input on this thing is among the stupidest decisions ever. And I mean in the world, ever. Not just in B&O products. It will go down in history.

To add to that last point, what I've found from a lot of interaction with clients is that the product to beat is not the AppleTV or a competing audio device, but the laptop computer itself. Companies from Sony to Apple to Dell are making thin, powerful, lightweight form factors, and that doesn't even take into account the tablets that will certainly

Not impressed with that Bryston box. Same issues as the McIntosh. Any device that's going to store a digital media library has to take user-interface seriously. Not even Apple does a great job with this! The larger the collection, the harder it is to browse it. Two lines of text on the front of a device that will likely live in a cabinet is useless

The ALT technology was to put a big dent, but it seems that either B&O themselves didn't quite understand what they had, or didn't trust the clients to and so put the technology out there as a convenience feature. I'll also mention that they should

Happy New Year is a red herring implying that we are all observing the gregorian calendar when that is logically fallacious and also it is a straw man in that a year that has not been yet experienced can be concluded in advance to be happy. Oh wait. Wrong thread. Happy New Year everyone!!!!

Despite a few bumps in the road, I like where the discussion is going. Tomaz, I saw that you added some details to your design in a previous post, specifically that the design maximizes the distance between the two speakers. Taking that a step further I have to wonder whether a "high-end mini-system" isn't a contradiction in terms. While
