Well it was either the lounge or bedroom....thats what I call compromise!!

Thanks Graham........its won't be used for loud music so it looks like it will be perfect!

Thanks Simon!! Apparently they are too "in your face" looking for the lounge thats why they have been moved to the bedroom.

I am wanting to use a pair of RL140's with my Beosystem 3500. I know that the RL140's need a powerful amp to drive them but would the BM3500 do? Its in a bedroom so it won't be played exceedingly loud very long periods. They look so good together. For interest sake what amp was supposed to be used with RL140's when they were released

Hi Jan I did realise that is what you meant. Any advice or suggestion is always worthwhile!

I suppose that by removing the battery, everything is cleared from the memory. One could then just put the original back. There obviously must be a way to also clear it using the remote.

Hi Keith Thank you for correcting the description. Apologies if I sounded a bit irate, I am sure it will be nice to have the CDX 2 added to my collection. Ben

I saw a CDX 2 for sale on a local aution site with a buy it now price. So I quickly checked the description and technical details on Beoworld (Was already logged on to Beoworld of course!), and bought it as it sounded like just what I would make use of. I then looked in the Beocentral book to see if it was there and it was but they write that the CDX

A BL1000 is obviously the first choice but I'd prefer to have my nephew banging a plastic remote on his head than a metal one and of course I always have the original on a shelf somewhere just to point out that, that is the actual remote. I couldn't have them leave thinking that B&O makes plastic remotes!

Hi Graham I have one, not sure why I did but for a plastic remote its very well made. You do have to point it at the actual unit you are trying to control, that is, its not as powerful as the original. The thing that bugged me is that the buttons are in totally different places to a normal BL1000. I usually use it when I know there are children around
