BeoGreg:What an iconic product Stones ! B&O at its best.
Stones:Seen from the same position as the Overture only turned 90 degrees left.

Last one.
Stones:Yes! Ever since a BS9000 replaced my Overture some years ago I have been missing the easy operation of my good old friend. Therefore I was happy to find a new every day use for it By the way: Here is the BS9000 with the BL6000. Seen from the same position as the Overture only turned 90 degrees left.

Very good to see how timeless the TV and the Beosound look together.

Makes me want to get a beogram 4500. Any detail shots of that turntable you can share?

Beoberg:Thanks guys! Regarding setting up the S8 as a sorround system. Instead of one RJ45 cable there are two from the S8 sub to the television. One transmits the subwoofer signal (I choose the BeoLab 14 sub in the menu as it is identical) and for the other I choose BeoLab 14 satellites. Easy as pie. 5.1 sound stage is phenomenal. Great power from the S8 sub without taking the punch from the Lab 9's and the two S8 satellites have crystal clear audio for rears. Plus what an upgrade from 40" to 55" when watching movies. I am very pleased!

Aussie Michael:That's excellent Beoberg. Do you know if you can use the S8 with a Receiver 1?
Beoberg would need two of those then!
Seems that he already has done the cabling, though [a]

There is a tv - and there is a BV

Yes but I was asking particularly as I was wondering if the Avant could use the S8 (as the Avant has the built in transmitter) if I could use a receiver 1 with the S8 as rears so I don't have to run a cable to the TV
Hi there, Aussie Michael,
I dunno regarding the receiver. It works perfectly with the BV11 and the Avant should have the same options for programming the individual sound signal from the powerlink outputs.
Best regards,
Frederik

A photo from my messy kitchen.
A Danish TV showing a Norwegian TV show in a Swedish kitchen. Some Finnish chairs can also be seen.
...and yes, I'll take care of the cabling any day now ;)
The living room of our old apartment. My old Beolab 1, a white Sony Mediacenter PC where nearly every menu item has a corresponding B&O wallpaper. Controlled with a Beo 5. A selfmade (my dad and I) active subwoofer in reflective white color to limit its optical size a little bit. The subwoofer becomes visible if you click on the picture. Beolab 7.2 beneath a LG OLED TV.
Menu items of the Mediacenter:
and to prove my love to the brand despite it's current way in design and quality: Nearly all of my B&O items are laser engraved with my logo and my name. The name was removed on the pictures (on the Beo 5 it's engraved corresponding with the circle aluminium housing and so small that it doesn't disturb the asthetics of the device)Except the Beo 4, all engravings are very subtle on the natural aluminium. But if somebody steals my Beo 5 he should explain on ebay why my name is on the remote and not his ;)
"You think we can slap some oak on this thing?"
Hi Beoworlders, new beovirus victim here ;-)
Anyway, on the table tonight is my bm 900s. The 900k is for the kitchen, had a bit of noise on 1 channel, so I'm testing if one of my spares is better. I just picked up the naked one and the bg 1000 from service today after waiting for 2 months.
Very excited to get them back in the RG Compact case :-) The best looking stand-alone system ever made? It is in my opinion. Fitted with an Essence mk2 for streaming and future multiroom integration.
Meanwhile the 6500 system is supplying the soundtrack .

Hi Kris,
Welcome Beovirus victim, you appear to have it bad but coupled with amazing good taste! Nice combination.
Love the furniture, by the way.

Thanks for the kind words jeff :-) by the Way, the tv bench is costum made (Home made) to fit between the pentas
Kromer:by the Way, the tv bench is costum made (Home made) to fit between the pentas
Very well done, very well done indeed. Excellent work.
What is the story behind the cabinet above the home made piece?
P.S. You are very welcome!

Do you mean the small rotating cassette tape holder? Similar to this: https://www.etsy.com/listing/486279345/vintage-cassette-tape-holder-cassette
TWG - great photos thanks for sharing
Kromer I like your photos too - it appears you're from the same place as my mum in Denmark :-) 🇩🇰

This is looking great. Looks like Kodi? I'd also planned to add wallpapers, but couldn't find overly nice ones. We should have a thread on this with all of us posting links. Particularly love to see some of the more recent items. What do you think?

Add sugar and you've also got it in your teeth but maybe cheese would be a better fit ;-)
alex_112: You can control the future and the past by controlling time!
Ah, but do you control the horizontal, and do you control the vertical? Can you change the focus to a soft blur, or sharpen it to crystal clarity?
I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus.

Sorry, I forgot that playfulness is the Essence of full control. ;-)

BL12:s look awesome in that setting and it´s a very nice and sleek installation.
Happy with the sound?
A BV11 / 14 would be nice on that wall as well :)
