Jandyt: Alex: A digital input on most of the BeoLabs will be as useful and beneficial as a chimney on a submarine. Hmmm. Hilarious JandyT!! Leave it to the Brits to still be using coal-burning submarines. I think Andy would have done better to use 'screen doors' as oposed to 'chimney'. On to the question at hand though.... Adding S/P

I agree with Christian here. I don't think that B&O expect an unusual leap forward in playback quality from the BS-5. I think they expect a leap forward in the experience of exploring, re-discovering, and listening to ones music library. I have just read a highly favorable review (Sterophile magazine, September/08) of the SooLoos system. The

Nice job so far Karsten! Likely to put some installers out of business! As for lighting, have you looked at Lutron? Their Grafik Eye 3100 series is available with a secret 'GBO' prefix part number that you might find useful.

The B&O remote will send whatever command is appropriate for the button(s) you've mashed. The issue is that there are at least 3 languages or command sets which might be

My Local shop has not received any official word yet. Its 'expected', but not 'confirmed'. Russ

I got my copy of 'Brasiliero' today. Fantastic! Thanks for the tip! Russ

RussR: I'm going to have to drag 'Rumors' out of the pile now, 'cause I would have gone with 'the Chain' or 'Never Going Back Again.' That's just me though. As an example...my choice of 'The Chain' is driven by the open-ness of the track, the LACK of layers...if you listen, you can hear Mick counting in at

No harm done Soundproof. I acknowledge that simply tossing out song titles without some guidance as to their utility is less helpful than this thread could be. So, c'mon guys! Answer the big question! Why? Why did you nominate that track?
