Thanks Peter. I noticed the recommended speaker was a pair of Beolab 4000s but I assume the 7-series speakers perform much better so I guess I'll have to save up a bit.

Thanks Peter. This will be plugged in to the "Center channel Powerlink" on the Beosystem 1, so does this still give a stereo effect with the Center channel? Sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm new at this.

Hello, I have recently obtained a used Beosystem 1 to do my surround processing with my non-B&O Samsung LED TV. I have 2 pairs of BL 6000s and working on wall mounting them. My TV i(55") is wall mounted and I have a console underneath it. I am going to get a subwoofer someday but really like clear speech sounds with my movies so I'm thinking

I have the 55" 7000 series LED and the picture is stunning. Also, it is wafer thin, almost as thin as my macbook pro. We are talking 2 inches here. I have it mounted on two bolts and a wire system that Samsung makes that makes it hang like a picture. I wanted to wait for the LED technology as the energy usage is much less and the ability to make

Or another idea....why couldn't you just plug all of your sources to the TV and take the TV audio out to the Beosystem and let the Beosystem do just the audio that way too?

what about just putting the audio in to the Beosystem 1 and then the video from the DVD player to the TV. You would have to switch both sources (TV and Beosystem) but wouldn't that work?

Walking in to Best Buy and trying to explain anything results in a blank stare of confusion!

Thanks Cooldude! Does this mean if I have for example my ipod connected through the TAPE2 connection sound will output through the AUX?

I just did some research and there are lots of receivers with pre-amp outs for active speakers. I guess my remaining question is does the BC 9500 have audio out? Thanks!

Thanks for all of your replies you all have been tremendously helpful. One more question please: I was wondering if there is a non B&O surround processor that would have the ability to connect the beolabs to. What I'm not sure is if the 9500 has an audio out or not. I thought I read somewhere that the AUX is IN and OUT which is news to me. What
