    Overture with integrated iPhone - thoughts

    Reply Contact

    Hi

    This may have been covered before but came across a company which integrates iPhones and iPod touches into the BS Overture - website and photos here - http://beodesign.org/

     

    Thoughts - Frankenstein or innovation?

    I think it's a great idea, but from memory quite expensive.....

    It was just under 900 euros for the conversion!

    I do like the idea

    Yes €890 (just enquired) which does make it expensive. I had thought this was a great update to my long unused Overture and BL4000 but is it worth the cost of a new BS8?  Ageing Overture vs new BS8 - I think this conversion quote has just made me realise what good value the BS8 is and will order one this week.

    Again my recommandation: SONOS and Napster (or similar) flatrate ... attached to the Ouverture - no need to get out of your chair to change the music, can be used with ipad or android phones as well.

    Or plug in a interface to control your Iphone to your Ouverture (look at Revoxbeo). In this way the Ouverture stay in the original state.

    I didn't understand the "not for profit organisation" bit.

    ...

    Definitely don't get it now ! Laughing
