Subir Pramanik . However I am afraid I don't think the letters SP are in honour of him. Engineer Pramanik joined B&O in 1965; the SP1 was introduced in 1960 and was the brainchild of Eric Rørbæk Madsen. I have a suspicion that SP stands for Stereo Pick-up!

A link would have been nice!

Very interesting little speaker! You should have bought it! B&O's first foray into ALT technology! It is a separate omnidirectional tweeter - Frede has a pair. I think they are from the 50s. I attach a picture of one dismantled. You can see there are two drive units facing each other with a lens in between.

Not long to the release so all questions will be answered then. Trip is correct about the software - far cleverer than the Apple Genius which simply compares record collections! The B&O system is far more advanced. But to really understand why, you need to see it in action! The remotes are also in development to back up the system. I think the the

Seems strange that both go at the same time. I take it that you have done the switch off at mains for 5 minutes trick? Is there any click when you press the open side?

That is quite a bit of trouble to go to for a quick laugh! Beautifully done!

Take the top off and investigate! Did it happen suddenly or have you just got them? The tops are held by two clamps at the back - they should be marked on a diagram underneath the units. Loosen them and the top slides forward a bit and then lifts off.

Turn the TV on to TV, press Menu then scroll down to set up. Press Go and then gto to connections. That will bring up what is attached and one will be STB-C decoder, Highlight

Not easily! It is possible as the Beo5 can be programmed to emit the correct remote sequences but only Keith seems expert in this. In practical terms, the answer is no!
