  • Re: Cables - for the last time?

    Best get the $45.000 ones, just to be sure. Beobird: Peter: You don't need $100 wire either - decent power cable will be fine! I reckon $10! If you use anolog signals (scart, speaker, interconnects) I recommend GOOD cables. 100 dollars is maybe a bit to much for a good 2x2mtr anolog speaker cable, but you won't get them for 10 dollars !

  • Re: Cables - for the last time?

    Funny you should mention that. The thread linked to above starts with a fairly frank admission that cables don't make that big a difference but by the end of the thread half the participants are discussing what the flaws in the testing process were that meant that the test failed to spot the differences that do so clearly exit between cables when

  • Re: vintage vs. modern B&O products

    Thanks Peter I was seriously tempted by a pair of M150's that came up on eBay locally (they sold for less than £50, leaving some financial headroom for restoration/reconing) but I chickened out because they are huge and I can't imagine my better half tolerating them in our living room without more of a fight that I would be prepared to

  • Re: Playstation 3 - Is it worth it?

    Graham1982: Perhaps it is for this very reason that you are no longer a games player - whilst the games industry has moved light years away from the days of Space Invaders and Pong graphically, I for one am getting quite bored with the same scenario re-hashed over and over again - massive environments in which one can run, shoot and drive based upon

  • Re: Beocenter 2200 - Only one speaker working when playing records???

    I agree with Peter that it isn;t worth spending too much on a Beocenter 2200. You should be able to find another one in working condition with cartridge for around £50. Before doing anything drastic it might be worth working through the following FAQ on the soundsmith site: http://www.sound-smith.com/faq02.html Simon

  • Re: B&O Audiophile

    It's not really a mod, but you may wish to bypass the op-amps (which don't get a good write-up) by using a set of active speakers. You'll be able to get plenty of advice here on how to do that! It might help if you are clear in your own mind about what the problem is you are tryng to solve via upgrading. Is there anything in particulat about

  • Re: vintage vs. modern B&O products

    I have been pondering this issue for a while. I currently have a Beocenter 7000 with a pair of the aforemtioned s45-2s on the original stands and a modern Sony CD player which will probably be replaced by a CDX in due course so it matches better. The setup I have now may not be at the cutting edge and would probably suffer by comparison with some of
