In an ideal world we would all rip Lossless etc however, 90% of my music is now bought from Apple iTunes at 256kpbs. As a Marketing Manager of large radio stations, I can also confirm that most of radio playout is ripped to the harddrive at 320kpbs!!! I like a real clear bright sound and this system just wasn't offering it. I think it needs something

WOW WOW WOW!!! THAT'S THE COOLEST APARTMENT EVER!!!

HAHA thanks for that. London was indeed fabulous! Well, I had my demo in Selfridges and connected my iPod Nano to it and... oh dear, guys, i'm so disappointed. Yes there was plenty of bass however, the whole thing sounded compressed and really lacking in treble. I do believe there are 3 tone settings for it on the iPod menu however, I didn't

WOW Tim, your wife is very lucky! Totally agree with your comments. The BeoSound 8 is TOTALLY opening my generations eyes and ears to Bang and Olufsen. The fact that is goes hand in hand with Apple is to be praised as this is what B&O's young generation want. Out of interest, you only have to look at BEATS by Dr Dre headphones, their marketing

Hi Mercats, Oh my, I'M SO VERY JEALOUS ;) Do post some pix of it! I'm hoping to see one in Selfridges, London this Thursday - rather excited!!!

Very strange. I use a MacBook and i've been using iTunes since 2003 and never had any problems! I 've been using Macs since 1995 though. I really hate Windows unfortunately have to use it at work and God it's confusing lol!

WOW that's fabulous! I'm in London next Thursday and i'm really looking to see one in Selfridges - in fact, VERY EXCITED!!! A white one will look AWESOME next to my white MacBook!

Oh my gosh, that is just pure vulgar. It's like driving a Ranger Rover in today's environmentally aware society! Vulgar pure vulgar! oh dear

I would love the orange from the BV10 available for the speaker grilles on the BeoSound 8. Also would love a bright yellow! A don't like pale pastel colours - gotta be bold for me - hey that's the kinda guy i am!

Hi Soundproof and BeoCool. Oh my gosh I love that story - no wonder they were excited when they saw BeoLab 5's!!! Sounds like you have a FAB set up. Yes this idea of iPods and parties is catching on fast. Slightly 'older' people at work are also experiencing it at parties!!! Really great idea as the classix at friday evenings party simply
