[quote user="Michael"] With the sharing feature, albeit good, it still requires the master computer to be on, which to me is pointless. [/quote] The server (wether a nas or serving computer) always need to be on and available for a network like that to work. I have my itunes on my NAS, (which is always ) and streams to all my other locations

You can find replacement belts (maybe) here : http://cgi.ebay.com/B-O-2500-5000-5500-6000-9000-CASSETTE-Belt-KIT-/360285204103?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item53e2abee87#ht_8034wt_1178

The service guide is available on this website, however look for the besound century. If you need a copy email me.

[quote user="Piaf"] Sounds good to me, however where do I go for these belts AND how hard is it to change them? Jeff [/quote] I had my beosound4000 tapedeck belts done in my local electronics repair shop... total cost around 50$ if I remember correctly, but that was a while back and still works perfectly.

[quote user="Piaf"] Press PLAY and the 2000 begins to play in one direction for about 1 second then it reverses direction, also for 1 second, then shuts down.

[quote user="Craig"] Agree with Nigel, get a Cona sub. It will make a world of difference to the sound. Craig [/quote] Definately try to find a cona sub. .... opens up the sound and increases the bass. Also replace the capacitor in the crossover print inside the speakers.... will clear up the sound. As for custom finishing .... I'm all

[quote user="Michael"] I love the flexibility and the ability to purchase whatever whenever with iTunes. However, when i try to share the library with other members of the household, i find it useless of having one central library that we can all access rather than having local copies of the same library on each others computers. Even if this

Hi, I use a drobo and it works fantastic. Expensive yes, but upgradable and the safe against data loss. I use the 5-bay FS which has ethernet connection .... no glitch ever. super fast! I use it as a server for my mac mini home theater/beoport/linkplayer setup.

[quote user="alenvprekrsku"] The new BeoMaster X with 2TB SSD HDD, HDMI, S/PDIF out, HD 1080p player and FLAC player. Of course, all this on the open source OS!!! [/quote] B&O missed the boat for a media center type system which is a shame. I am very pleased with my mac mini/plex/linkplayer setup. The new mac mini is certainly on my wishlist

[quote user="dilznik"]Have you ever thought that your set up would be better/nicer/more fulfilling if only B&O made X product? What is that product? For me it's a cut down Beosystem that does 5.1 (including subwoofer port and built in crossover) and has HDMI control for, say, 4 products. That's all it really needs to do. I don't
