Congrats Mika!! Sorry that I haven't been around more... just too busy.

Holy smokes !!! Don't know what to say ..... speechless...!! Thank you to the Beoworld crew for awarding me this fabulous price. When I saw the email in my inbox this morning I thought my membership renewal was up, so I got my credit card ready while I opened up the email. Nope ...I won a prize!!! Wow ... My apologies to all the wedthreaders for

Why not go for passive speakers all-over. Works great with the av7000, as it already has the build-in amp for the center channel. For the front L/R channels , I use a powerlink cable to a MCL2p amp unit. (you'll find plenty of these on ebay, fairly cheap) connecting any passive speakers with 2pin din plugs. Same for the back L/R channels. I have

[quote user="burantek"] [quote user="PhilLondon"] Video, Photos and Internet are not displayed on the BS5, but on the TV screen. This is a BM5 feature not a BS5. [/quote] OH! A BM5! Now that this confusion is settled... The original topic sounds even more convincing! So, has anyone ordered their iPad yet? [/quote] LMAO ...I did order
