Gents, Just been lucky enough to buy some Beolab Penta Mk1 speakers and they have speakerlink cables not powerlink. Want to connect these up to my Avant as my fronts with my BL6000s as my rears - what cables will I require and are they dealer only parts? Cheers all - awesome speakers by the way and sound really crisp and clear. I bought them with a

Guys, About to fire up my Virgin media box yet having no joy. There is no SAT option on my Avant menu yet the chap I bought it off has Sky on it and it has the STB option installed. Is it just my virgin box playing up (my Avant is a 2000 VHS model) or will I need a software upgrade? Any tips on how to get it tuned in/working or what STB to select in

Thanks guys - thats what was stopping it working. On my Avant it gives me Type A and Type B options so the menu's aren't the same as the above... They also reset their settings each time the Avant is turned off. Least I now have surround sound....

Hi guys - having a few problems linking up my system!! I have my BS3000 connected to the Avant with the TV set to Opt 2 and the 3000 to Opt 0 as I have my BL6000s connected to the Avant front or rear powerlink ports (deosn't seem to make a difference to the problem).

How much would one fetch in VGC, don't require the turntable just the Beomaster and the

In the current economic climate used B&O is going for a song - I was watching a Beocenter 9300 + BL6000 speakers which went for £500 last night. I forgot about the auction otherwise i'd be picking those up!! Also a Beocenter 9300 with a sticky CD mech but in working order went for £205. I just bought a 32" Avant on Wed for £330

2 duvets and a bad back later and the Avant is home That TV is very very heavy!! Not turned it on yet as going to let the tube settle back in its upright position but one very happy Avant owner as it was mint. The chap I bought it off was a B&O engineer and a nice chap. Had a listen to his BeoLab 5000s - AWESOME sound, didn't realise they were

Cheers Andy - pillows, duvets, bubble wrap and a prayer it is! Flippin thing weighs nearly 85kg so will have my Weet-a-bix before the drive down!! Bad back anyone

hi all - finally i've bought a 32" Avant after lots of searching for one in exellent condition. Its only a VCR 2001 model but looks lovely.
