"the design is nothing special yet not ugly" Do we pay B&O prices for the design to be nothing special? I certainly don't. I think we are all use to the peculiarities of B&O interfaces on products that broadly make compatibility difficult with other products (that's been going on for years -- see postings on cables and inter

Thanks very much for your experience on this matter Ian. I can't say that I am surprised though I would have loved to have heard a positive feedback on this matter. As an owner of a totally useless MX4000 STB controller I completely understand where you are coming from. I need say no more you said it all. Many thanks and I will probably go with

Bingo, So what are B&O going to do now then? What they are going to do is issue a TV set with a digital tuner and charge its loyal customer base £500 to upgrade their sets!! Anyone know how the DVB-T performs for the BV6-26?

Spot on Peter and many thanks for your help. I just can't see the solution immediately. The 2300 and the BV6-26 are in the same room and I want to put the MX4000 where the 3500 currently is. I will sit down and think about it and I am sure that it just needs a bit more spark! Thanks again

Can I ask the question in a different way then? (see advice on set up). If I put a Beolink video in between my BV6-26 and my MX4000 can I take my ordinary Beolink converter out of the system or does it need to stay in to take the Aux based audio products? Signature explains the product mix. Thanks in advance

To all you Beonuts, My signature provides the list of equipment that I have to deal with and the only factor I have to add is that the MX4000 is connected to the main system but because there is no beolink converter only analogue TV and sound (including CD & Radio) is transmitted. I want to take advantage of some decorating to move my bits around

Peter, The argument regarding the separate tuner is in some ways effective (enough to convince me at the time of the purchase of my 6-26) but is unsustainable on sales and design terms. When the great switchover comes is B&O going to sell TV's without any tuner? Is it going to say that whilst you have bought this gorgeous piece of design pop

Picking up on Peter's mention of critical members I believe he is very right in supporting that. I have been very critical and still am over my two periods of ownership which have lasted since 1982 and intend to continue. B&O ownership (IMHO) is a balance of sound quality (or video) and design. Most of the Audiophile press discount the design

Many thanks Martin! Just to assured that your time hasn't been wasted both Lee & I thank you. Lee because he didn't have the time to get to his warehouse and measure the tops when its all packed up. Me? Because you re-assured me that what I was buying would fit. Can I say that your help was in the best tradition of Beoworld and a 5 starrer

Many thanks Martin. Lee has one for sale and he is going to take a critical measurement for me but its all packed so it would be easier for all if someone with one could provide the measurements. Thanks again Barry
