Due to cost and other constraints , I am looking to hook up a beosound 3200 with beolab 9 speakers for music and to hook the 3200 to a pioneer plasma tv ( using a separate blu ray player). Because of physical constaints i cannot hook up a rear speakers and will have to live with only from speakers and a centre speaker via the TV.. .I am going for beolab9  in the hope that movies played via the speakes will be good enough ??!!. Am I wasting my time with spending money on the beolab9 or will beolab 6000 or 8000 be good enough. Also I will not have a sub woofer... beolab 9 has a wide range and a low frequency level 30-20,000.

Does anyone have experience with this kind of configuration? Any advise?

I have a similar set-up.  I use the stereo output from the TV to the Aux input to my 3200 - which then feeds my BL8000 and BL2.  This works ok (I guess).  Turn on TV - turn the volume all of the way down and then adjust the volume on my 3200 (2 remotes).  Pretty simple - but unfortunately B&O cant support anything more complex (I even have a cheap Radio Shack switch to flip back-forth between the TV audio and my iPod/iTunes audio).......  B&O really is WAY behind the times on these things...... no wonder they are having problems.

Michael,

What exactly is B&O WAY behind on? Building something cheap that has so many features it's unusable? It's called everything else. Look into it.
