    How many Remotes??!!

    I was recently explaining the many benefits of B&o equipment to a friend of mine and they were suitably impressed by me telling them that you can control all the different bits of equipment with one remote. TVs, Stereos even lights (I have an old LC1 in my bedroom) etc. "Ooooh, thats great" they said "so you only have one remote then." I then thought about it and realised I have 5 Beo4's and my old remote for my BM6000! I am not rich or overly endowed with B&O, they just seem to accumalate and was wondering how many remote controls you all have. Include them all, MCP's, Bl1000's etc.

    I have

    • 2 pcs Video Terminal
    • 2 pcs Beolink 1000
    • 3 pcs Beo4
    • MCP6500
    • Beolink 7000

    ...so that makes nine. And I still often find that I would like to have a Beolink 1000 for some operation when I'm holding a Beo4, and vice versa! Laughing

    Hi,

    I have only ONE remote, the Beo4.

    It does everything on my A/V setup. Simple, easy to use, beautiful, very strong as it can stand many falls on the floor, this is an excellent remote to have.

    "Less is more"....

    Cheers,

    Guy

    1 X Beo 5 ornament

     

    Stick out tongue

     

    2 x Beo4, here.  Complemented by volume control on the BeoCom 2400 and on the BeoCom 1.

    Just can't seem to find a justification for getting a Beo4 for the BeoLab 2000 in the bathroom.  That seems to be the only sound system around the house that actually gets touched on a consistent basis.

    Re: How many Remotes??!!

    In my home..

    1 x Beo4 Cinema with all the coating peeling of the buttons and a leaky LCD screen

    2 x Standard Beo4's that refuse to be destroyed

    1 x Beo5 Remote, last seen in a drawer in the kitchen - charger currently 'M.I.A' ...  really must send it to Keith (with no return address...) 

     

    In my 'private collection' in a secure area at LifeStyle AV

    BeoLink 7000 - boxed, only used twice by it's previous owner and 'as new'

    BeoLink 5000 - boxed/unused.

     

    Jaff - you have too many remotes.  (i have an A-Level in stating the obvious you know..) Laughing

    The ones that are actually being used almost every day are the BT8000 and the BL7000 in the bedroom, the Beo 4 in the livingroom and the Terminal 5000 in the kitchen.

    Re: How many Remotes??!!

    4 beo4s

    1 beo5

    for 4 rooms.

     

    From reading the posts I'd say that I'm the average (five remotes).
