Are you sure it has an ATI chip? I could have sworn it had something from NVidea or something, you could be right though. The whole HDMI > DVI > Video conversion thing seems a little clumsy, and I fail to see how it would work if the signal coming out the DVI converter was digital, which it must be if connecting through HDMI...

Hmmm, £2000 on cables, or £2000 on albums? Which would be better spent? Let me think about that one... And if you thought that was bad enough, there was a company making speaker cables which cost something like $16,000 a METRE (the link was on the old forum somewhere, I've googled but couldn't find anything). Seriously, I believe

BeoLab 9s and 5s all deserve as many stars as can be given, they're all first class speakers, maybe even BeoLab 3s. B&O needs to rethink their plans if they're going to be releasing more speakers like the BeoLab 4s though. For £900, you can get a much, MUCH better sound! My £250 active studio monitors sound MILES better. They're

PL212: They are already installed in many Danish stores -- even store-within-a-store (Fona). If you thought the IWS looked anonymous, wait till you see these! I'm sure the aluminum is very high-quality, etc, but they look like anonymous ceiling speakers you'd buy for $40 at the hardware store. But they don't sound like anonymous ceiling

Peter: Must confess that my opinion of this rag continues to plummet. Not a proper review and not detail you could not get from the official site. The earlier review of the BL3 was also appalling with the reviewer seemingly unaware of any of the features. I am still waiting for a double blind test of power leads by them. Reviews of these items going

beodude: In one store, the sofa for viewing of the new 50" BV 9 was a distance of about 1.5m to 2 m away . We watch our much smaller 32 " avant from about 4-4.5 metres away at home, so this didn't show the tv off in its best light - hmm I can see 10 pixels on the screen not in my peripheral vision!! There was however a super cool rotating

I'd go for option 2 or 1 if you can. BeoLab 9s would probably fill a room of that size, but BeoLab 5s would be much more suited to the job. BeoLab 9s or 5s would be much less intrusive on the room IMO, as you can leave a subwoofer out of the equation (ie less equipment). Push for 5s if you can, the BeoLab 9s should sound okay in that room, but in

Peter: Not tried making 9s scream but I would be surprised if they don't. That is in part the clipping function. Only the 5s don't do it of the modern speakers. Pentas don't either but that is not always a good thing! More likely that they will blow if you really hammer them!! 9s are better than Pentas in my opinion but they should be as

I agree with the last two comments! The overall shape and perspective seems much more balanced than the BeoVision 5, and more elgant. Of course B&O designed it to fit in line with the ALT speakers and not much else. They aren't going to design it with the older speakers as a priority, as let's face it the BeoLab 6000s & 8000s have been

Do you need a house cleaner? I'd be more than happy to steal clean your BeoVision 9 . This makes me want an Apple TV even more though. The Xbox 360 is rubbish as a mediacenter. It always sounds as if it's about to take off, only supports WMV and is rubbish at navigating through tonnes of music. Also, RE the '300' movie trailer. I went
