I absolutely love my B&O stuff (old and new) but sorry I don't know if I'm alone with my Beo6 adventures but this is an absolutely disappointing experience.

- I constantly need to reconfigure the thing to connect 2 way

- Does not connect with spotify (one of the best features of the BS/BM5)

- User unfriendly product (it seems only dealers / programmers can use it properly)

- It has indeed become a paper weight. I have gone back to Beo4

Ps. Do anyone of you know whether radio addresses on BM5 update automatically or do I need to speak to a dealer regarding stations that have changed their addresses.

Will my BS 9000 work 100 percent properly with ML to BM5 in a stand alone set up? Is this tested and approved that everything will work?

Friendly regards from Braunschweig,

- What do you need to change when you reconfigure your Beo6 form 2-way?
     If it's the BM5 ip-adress that changes, try to configure your router so it won't change.

- I haven't tried this yet, but it's possible to map Spotify to A.MEM and program your Beo6 to use that.
      Will try this weekend, if I find the time...

- Yea, ill guess that's why you should by this as a service from your dealer.
      I know the pain, cause I also want to do it myself :)

- I still think that a well programmed Beo6 are way better then a Beo4, but the Beo4 is easier to get started with.

I haven't started playing with presents and N.RADIO stations yet, but it should be interesting.
Sad to say, but it seems like 3 of my favorite radio stations no longer are available through N.RADIO.

You should be able to use BS/MB5 as a N.RADIO/N.MUSIC source when connected to a BS9000.
I'll think that you have to set the BS9000 as audio master.


Hopefully are my English fairly understandable :)

Make sure your Beo 6's "server IP" is matched to your BM5's
