Everytime I see a Beolilnk 7000 with "No Contact" in the display, it hurts my eyes ;)

If you do not have any 2-way products, you can configure the BL7000 to 1-way only..

Just go into setup and remove all products under audio/video, and add them again. It will detect no 2-way response, and set it to 1-way mode :)

Thanks for that. I will do it tonight.

But I don't know which room I will keep it in the end.

And I have so many systems. I don't know if any of them support 2-way?...

2-Way systems are.

 

4500/5500/6500/7000/9500

Early Ouverture/2300 with the small 4cm plastic cover under left glassdoor. Behind the cover are the IR sender diodes :)

Out of all above, I have a BS2300 and BS3200.

I plan on purchasing a 9500.

BS3200 is one-way, and your 2300 is only two-way if it has the small plastic cover I talked about.

Good evening! Time for some oldschool hifi Cool

A new partition wall, raw beoplay style, gave me a good place to set up my bl/bm5000, beogram4000 and my newly acquired beovox m100's. 

And yes it sounds fantastic! The Beolab and m100 just goes great together. Sorry about the sloppy cabling, some organizers are underway.

The Av9000 is for the old gaming consoles, and just because I still love it Big Smile

 

The Rosewood veneers are a very different in colour. Judging from this and some of my other stuff it could seem that they used a darker staining on the newer things?

Kromer what a nice shrine to your vintage b&o

L1NO also posted some pics too of using that type of material on the wall which also looked good.

I have seen on the outside of Scandinavia houses that sometimes they treat the wood with a wash in either soft blue/ grey , mod grey wash. I think in time as a change this might be a good effect on the bare wood

Enjoy your music.

Thanks for the compliments elephant and Aussie Michael. 

Yes, osb chipboard is surprisingly decorative and another plus is that I can re-use it for roofing a small outbuilding when I take wall down again in a year or two. 

The other side hasn't been wasted either. Perhaps a little excessive for a 2 year old girl's room, but I couldn't resist.... a 9300 and beovox 5000's

Blue Beoplay H6 in daylight and at the evening... although it's not my main headphone as I prefer the open detailed sound of my AKG K701 over the H6.

Thank you, Johan.
Unfortunately not. Engraving is due in may or june when I have more time; guess it will look discreet and great on the small dark grey aluminium parts.
Only the headphone stand and the DAC are already laser engraved.

Merci BeoGreg!

I don't agree with your dealer. You just have to keep in mind for what the P2 has been made for! And for a nice pocketable mini speaker it packs in a lot of punch... much more than expected. You dealer may just not be happy because he will not earn a lot from such a cheap device...

The P2 is quite cool. Like a small soap. Fits easily in a pocket. Sounds good for what it is. For a frequent flyer I think it makes perfect sense. Especially if you want to travel really light, and without a lot of luggage.

Noticed the black stand for beovision Avant when I was looking at the new stuff. Looks quite nice. I wish they also made a black metal front for the speaker bar as well. I would like to update my set with a small design twist like that.

Regarding the P2 colors I really like the pale brown color. It's modern and elegant. The black one is too. I didn't see the blue.
