TripEnglish: "As is known to most B&O users, you just add SPEAKERS to your LIST. Then just select LIST>SPEAKERS, GO, NUMBER 1,2 or 3 -- for the various setups. (The dealer should try it! )" I agree, Soundproof. I think we should take a break from critiquing the products and critique the dealers! Some of the stories I've heard on

For once soundproof and I agree completely! US spec BV-8, Speaker 2 works exactly as it ought to. Russ

Well, JK, the BV-8, as it comes, straight out of the box, WILL play along with your B&O stereo and speakers, if you add the ML socket adaptor, which I will admit is an almost 10% penalty...but if you already own the B&O system, the nyou won't need another remote control, so thats a 5% savings right there. The problem we are discussing here

Hi Mark, to answer your last question first; yes, you can change the system to 'Speaker 2' with no trouble for music listening. Anyone following some of these threads carefully will have surmised that TripEnglish and I frequent the same B&O shop, and have the same opportunity to amble down to 'Sony Style' and look at other manufacturers

Rumor has it that the original Xbox used RCA DVD player IR codes. I don't recall seeing RCA listed in the US software, but perhaps you can track down the OEM for the device. As far as the Xbox 360, I haven't heard anything about which control codes MicroSoft uses, and for certain the Xbox/360 is not listed in the PUC database. Russ

No Sleep timer that I can find. ML module is indeed extra, as is the Beo4/5. $3755.00 ML Option looks to be $350.00 Russ

Hi Linder, I would rather have a BV-7 on my living room as well. Of any size. I am really looking forward to seeing if they can do the MKIII transplant into the 32" chassis. My frustration is with a viewpoint which seems to demand a MKIII for the price of a BV-8. The BV-8 is the entry level tv precisely because it lacks the DSS module, Video engine

Hi Soundproof, Gee I love a lively debate. 1. I mentioned the shuffle, not the nano, to be precise. I think that there are a LOT of people here who would agree that B&O ought to throw in the towel on portable mp3 players. But, then again so should a lot of other companies. To be honest, alongside my BeoSound 2 I have 2 iPod Nanos. But for music
