gorissek: And since iTunes doesn't play FLAC and I really don't want to rip them all, I'm "stuck" with a closet full of CDs. Not that I'm complaining : ) Did you try Fluke yet: http://cubicfruit.com/fluke/ ? As the speakers are concerned.....go for the Beolab 4000!! Ralf

"piel frama" is what you are looking for Best regards Ralf

I found this on the forum: "It is certainly possible to have the Beo4 in permanent link mode provided your Beo5 provided your Beo4 software is at least at version 5.0 or later.

Auch wenn es Dir nicht hilft, aber meine Eltern haben das Problem mit Thomson TV und Technisat Receiver auch... ZDF Problem? Ralf

Does the week-end stopping surely work for the 9500? As I read in the manuals only the 9300 support entering days (1 to 7 for mo through fri). What if you don't own a BL 7000? Just a BL 1000 or Beo 4? Thanks Ralf

I got a V8000 I don't use anymore... if this was possible, maybe you could even attach a STB/DVD Player to the V8000 and use it in the Link room? Any ideas? Ralf

Oder den Converter 1611 nehmen... Ralf

stereogeezer, please let us know how you managed to set up everything! Thanks Ralf

Congrats to you! Just some thoughts: - get a simple cable to connect your PC or mac or ipod - get a beoport+IR Eye to connect your pc or mac and control it via your Beo 4 - get a beogram (with RIAA) and play your record through the system - .... Ralf

Umgebaute GTG Geräte - sehr teuer! Oder Kabel von one remote... aber besser: Ulf Kiener Umbau! S. Thread ganz hier in der Nähe... Ralf
