Congratulations to all winners and especially Spain - that's a great win I have a sudden craving for monkey nuts.

[quote user="Puncher"]Evening Sonk! Yes, they're very "moreish", I've already passed the feeling sick stage but still can't stop dipping into the bag for more! [/quote] You should mix them with some raisins. Better yet, pour some Glühwein over it. Oh yes and congrats everybody so far!

[quote user="Stonk"] Well done Totto. Good book, so I hear. Still haven't got one [/quote] Get one! I'm afraid they will outlive most hamsters...

[quote user="Stonk"]Hamster - check (seriously, got one today!)[/quote] I better join the draw this time

[quote user="langleyav"]Moooi in the UK sells this priced at £1266 !!![/quote] I see similar pendant lights in every store nowadays starting from 49€ - so if you'd rather spend the difference on an MX8000 and a pair of BL8000s...

Try the one-way setup of the remote first then for keying the code - here's the relevant page of the Beolink 5000 manual. Configure it back to two-way mode later, if the Beocenter starts working. If that doesn't help, I'm out of ideas... EDIT: the second button from the top is "SHIFT", it's a bit hard to read on the pic.

Well, unfortunately all I know is what I read in here . But I wouldn't be suprised if there were no feedback at all while keying the code. If your Beolink 5000 complains with "NO CONTACT" while you try to key the numbers, it probably isn't sending them right.

[quote user="lausvi"]Right? [/quote] Good idea! There are at least seven rolls of this green wallpaper with the huge pattern, and dozens of some more subdued, yellowish orange small cross pattern (which I can actually remember from my childhood - probably had it at home!). Anybody building a '70s lounge?

I never had a Beolink 5000 myself, but I think you might need to configure it to one-way mode for this to work (so that it will behave as a Beolink 1000).

Now it was of course interesting to see what once was in it. Apparently the box has been sitting in storage ever since somebody in their right mind used that kind of wallpaper, probably not any more in the '80s Wonder where the Beomaster is now...? Sorry this wasn't more interesting! I was disappointed too!
