  • Re: Cx50/100 as rear speakers

    It would be a good set-up assuming you're not a hard-core surround speaker person! Recently I installed a pair of CX-100's to fill the rear-speaker role of a home-theater system consisting of BeoLab 9's in the front, and BeoVision 10 as the TV. It works fine, but I had to tweak the "speaker level" settings a lot to get a good balance

  • Re: Loudspeaker "pop" when changing channel in cable box

    I hear a "pop" too, but my situation is different from yours. My cable box (Pace RNG 110) is connected to my BV10-40 with HDMI only, and when I used to have only front speakers (BL 9) connected, would not hear a "pop" when changing channels. Recently, I installed rear BeoVox speakers through a Beolink Passive amplifier. Now, I hear

  • Re: Well, look what we have here !!

    Are these prize drawings open to overseas gold members? Has anyone from the US won? Recalling off-hand, it seems that most past winners have been in the UK, with some on the continent. Leo

  • Re: Where is BeoSound8 made?

    Does anyone know if the BS8 fades out when the power is turned off, and fades in when turned on? At least that would give it a little B&O credibility. The BV8-32, embarrassingly, doesn't have the electronic curtains. Wish they would come out with an update to fix that problem. Just read in the user guide that there's no "source"

  • Re: Blu Ray for Bang & Olufsen?

    A B&O standalone Blu-ray player would be awesome. I'm using a PlayStation 3 configured with Beo4 remote control, which is nicely integrated all-and-all, but nothing would beat having B&O for the whole disc-to-display chain. Plus, the PS3 fan gets very noisy at times. Maybe the upcoming year would roll out a BeoCenter 3? Leo

  • Re: BeoVision 7-55 or BeoVision 10-46? That is the question...

    Saw a BV10-32 on its floor stand the other day - it's the most adorable TV! Kind of like a big-faced little robot... Leo

  • Re: Where is BeoSound8 made?

    Many people seem to be dissing the BS8 solely based on the "Made in China" bit of the equation. How many have actually seen a BS8 in person, and felt it and touched it? I had the "pleasure" to do so yesterday (and today again, actually, at a different store) and it is distinctly underwhelming. Perhaps not the sound, but everything

  • Re: Where is BeoSound8 made?

    [quote user="BeoFab"] I don't understand. This way of thinking might be true 15 years ago but now Made in China is not neccesarily bad quality. [/quote] [quote user="Doctor"] The site of assembly does not give any true indication of the quality of design, materials or reliability of the product. [/quote] True. However, the design

  • Re: Where is BeoSound8 made?

    I had the chance to play with a BS8 in a store today, and was disappointed by its quality. The remote control is lightweight and plasticky (although I like the "UFO"-inspired design). The LED's surrounding the control panel that light up when the volume is changed look cheap and tacky. The socket that juts out above the unit when no iPod

  • Re: Beo 6

    Will this Beo6 come with programming software freely available to the consumer? Having grown up in a digital society, I like to program the settings myself and tweak them to my delight. From what I've heard, the Beo5 needs to be taken to the dealer for programming. Not only is that very inconvenient for Generation Y consumers like me, it is also
