    Whatever the quality of the router, 5m is within every routers capability... Strange, can you lend another router and try?

    Try a different wi-fi channel? I get dropouts with all sorts of equipment, including an Airport Express. It happens. I played around with various channels (after leaving the router on "automatic") and since manually selecting channel 4, never had a single dropout (as no-one ever seems to use channel 4, so there are no conflicting channels).

    rmclachlan:

    I really like the Beolit 12, pretty fresh, although I can see the retro aspect of the design also. By contrast the Philps Fidelio is pretty derivative of the type of design B&O have been producing over the last two decades. Remove the Philips logo and replace with B&O logo. Add a few perforations on the aluminium finish and bingo - instant B&O product. 

    Huh? That Philips product is more the size of the BS8, The beolit 12 is a small portable music player, the size of a lunch box. I haven't seen anything better on the market which is this size.

    Re: BeoLit 12 is in the shops! Initial impressions?

    Saw it in real life just today... sort of disappointed.

    I have to agree - no a B&O look and feel Sad, not heavy enough, no alu.
    This was the dark grey one -  from the pictures I prefered the light grey one.

    No idea about the sound - the shop owner wanted to show it but "network problems / have to replace the router / linksys/cisco..."
    How will they ever sell these if you cannot listen to them?

    BUT: if sound is better than what competitors can do I can see all the apple kids carrying these out of the stores (sorry - using apple hw myself ;-))

    Let's not forget - it B&O Play!

    Best regards
    Ralf

     

    PS: Just ordered some outdoor non B&O speakers that I will atttach to a sonos amp (in the basement - I can run small speaker cables to the ouside) and use the ipad / napster combination to run that one. Found out that for Airplay you even need napster mobile which I don't have / don't want - so I need another sonos ;-)

    we took our iPhones along with our favourite mysic to test so that was OK

    but when we asked for an internet radio demonstration we ran into network issues as well 

    so we heard the sound - and learned that its placement relative to your ears was important 

    but also realised networking could be a challenge

    but the main reason for no immediate sale to us was a lack of colour availability

    First B&O (1976) was a Beogram 1500 ... latest (2011) change has been to couple the BL11 with the BL6Ks *sounds superb*
