Opman:
Excellent point, very well made
we are on the same wave length !
I made similar comments in the thread about "beyond B&O design"
see here
First B&O (1976) was a Beogram 1500 ... latest (2011) change has been to couple the BL11 with the BL6Ks *sounds superb*

Ease of use and integration without having to be a "rocket scientists"...
Sure, when it works! Blu-ray playback stutters and judders across the old masterlink, HD picture quality deteriorates over the analogue signal, you can't send a HD audio signal across masterlink, plus there's an audio delay between rooms (using the BV7-40).
Plus you can do what you want far cheaply and more effectively using Sonos or an iPod+Aiport.
As Peter implies, B&O haven't moved with the times. If you simply want to link up audio and play back across analogue masterlink, sure it works fine. Problem is, this is what were were doing in 1985...

A typical event in a B&O equipped home. ...working in the study. listening to some good music (CD 3200 or Beosound 5). My wife comes in, she likes the music, goes back into the living room and brings the speakers there to life with the same music. Later on, I turn the music off in the study, move upstairs to another room and ... link the sounds to a different room again. The magic: clever linking with masterlink and BL and equipment that can be controlled easily with Beo4 or 5.
Reading all the posts on "best" / "worst" B&O equipment, I just wanted to emphasize on one of the key points of the brand. Ease of use and integration without having to be a "rocket scientists"...
Wishing you all a great experience !
I agree with you completely. The simple and flawless operation of every source I have connected is a constant source of pleasure and satisfaction with the products.

Not to mention that it gives you a skin rash and blurs your vision. And those marks it leaves on the carpet! Don't let B&O fool you, it's all rubbish and the millions of wealthy people who own and enjoy them aren't nearly as clever as they think. More money than brains I always say (and as we know, the best way to get rich is to be utterly stupid and spend your money frivolously). I for one am sick of B&O robbing me of all possible joy with their obsolete nonsense.
I am, by the way, a true and dedicated fan of this prestigious company, I simply don't like anything they make, how it's made, where it's made, why it's made, anyone who works for them, or what they stand for. They are the greatest.

And like Peter, I enjoyed your inverted/perverted humour but we will now have to deconfuse some Beoworlders

I'm really not very keen on B&O anymore. I'll continue loving their products from the past, but sadly i can see myself eventually changing to another brand when all this new technology becomes the norm, if they don't start getting back up to the standard that they used to be at.

Today I had a full refund for the cost of installation (money and time, all cables hidden) of my master link system.
We were having dinner in the kitchen and I listened to the tennis (Federer vs Söderling) on the radio. Söderling had just made a break and was about to serve for victory, when my 3 years old daughter says "I must go to the toilet". A quick rush down the hall, enter the bath room and before switching on the light I switched on the speakers.
She did what she came for and looked surprised at her father jumping around celebrating the Swedish victory in Paris.
