Hi, here´s some pictures of my setup.
Greets
I have to say that looks really, really cool. Nice job.
What would look even more amazing is a little Danish Guard figure where the mini-rocket is. That's be a true "catalogue shot" ...
Lee
WOW, is that some kind of altar, amen!
Grrr! Millemissen
There is a tv - and there is a BV
Hi Guys, thanks for your replies.
@Lee, perhaps there will be a danish guard figure in one of the next price draws :-) ?
Beofan53, that´s an impulse sale... Rather I'm pleased with my Encore, but i´m waiting for the first day buying of:
- Gapless Playback
- Beo 6 control
- even Ipad Control
- Showing Radio-Station-Covers.
and so on. So much thread´s here i have comment, and much of you said: You can wait till the end of your live. Now i read so much of the Spotify Introductions of the BS5/BM5. I don´t need Spotify. I only want a update, that apparent never comes.
I have my, for me, great library on my NAS, and damn yeah, i will they control via Ipad, Beo6 ....And Yes, Millemissen, you´re right, take your Ipad and fire up your songs to the (ugly) playmaker or your Airport Express...
It´s i a shame for B&O that they will give a product named Beosound 5 Encore NEVER a real chance. So when i sell its okay (hehe there will be other speakers from B&O too) , when i sell not, it´s okay too.
At least:At the moment, there will for me NO reason,expect a divenly design, to buy - if it comes- a new Audio-Product.
AMEN :-)

Hereford:Okay, that is much easier than my local retailer made it sound like. How much does a cover cost?
Hereford: I love seeing these setups, very inspiring! ... @Beoice, your setup is sleek, but a bit cold for my taste. Do you plan on putting stuff on the walls? How are the acoustics in the room?
I love seeing these setups, very inspiring!
The room is not finished yet. Of course there will be some stuff on the walls, but I would like to finish the complete setup on this wall before decorating it. During this year I want to add a motorized video projector wall above the tv and a full hd beamer on the opposite side to my setup.
The other walls are already decorated. One would get crazy in a complete white room of nearly 40qm.

markiedee: beoice thats a very sleek looking clean setup really nice, do you use a beosystem 3 with your panasonic tv and if so whats the results like???

I don't have a beosystem 3. I connected audio out from the tv to a.aux of the BS9000, as I only have a 2.1 setup.
Perhaps when installing a beamer I will add background speakers with a surround sound processor. Hopefully B&O will sell the surround processor of the forthcoming "Beolab 14" setup seperatly.
The muting relay of the Beomaster 8000 has failed, waiting to get to my B&O repairman. Installed my recapped 4400 (though only a shadow of Søren Mexico's restoration!) as a replacement. Sounding almost identical to the 8000 in many ways; I'll keep this setup for a couple of months for a change
The half-track high speed Revox does a better job than my Beocord 1200 open reel deck - and 10½" reels are sweet.
Vinyl records, cassettes, open reel, valve amplifiers and film photography.
Beautiful gear. I love big 10.5 inch reel to reels, I still miss my Pioneer RT-909. I bought it from a coworker, beautiful thing, huge brushed aluminum, auto reverse 4 track, blue fluorescent meters and tape counter. But, the previous owner's cat had slept on it for a decade, so no matter how well I cleaned it out and vacuumed out all the cat hair, after it warmed up it smelled like cat, something to which I am highly allergic. I got to where I couldn't take the sneezing and such after listening to it for a while, so sold it off for 5 times what I paid for it. Still miss it though.

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus.

What a shame, those Pioneer units look great. I have a similar issue with another B77 that has been in a heavy smoker's apartment for 15 years. The foul smell of sour nicotine fills the room every time I turn it on - so it is in the workshop waiting for a total stripping and cleaning of the circuit boards.
The TV is ugly is sin, but a BV11 is out of the budget. I like how the plants stand there like little green friends to the Beolab9s.

Its been a while since I posted to this thread..
Recently got around to making an aux cable for my BS6 to use it in the car and I have to say - I don't think it is leaving any time soon!
This is one beautiful player.

Does that mean the Beolab 5s are going ? I have a home for them
More seriously, what do you think of the differences - given your apartment seems a bit small for the power of Beolab 5s.

DMacri: Hammer93: What a shame, those Pioneer units look great. I have a similar issue with another B77 that has been in a heavy smoker's apartment for 15 years. The foul smell of sour nicotine fills the room every time I turn it on - so it is in the workshop waiting for a total stripping and cleaning of the circuit boards. I was able to get rid of the nicotine smell from my LCD projector, so this might work for you, although it takes some time. I simply placed the projector in a cardboard box with an open box of baking soda and closed the box. After a few weeks, the smell was absorbed by Arm and Hammer, and the projector has been sweet smelling ever since. I was then able to remove much of the nicotine stains from the outside surfaces with regular cleaning supplies. You may want to give it a try.

I got rid of it with "Rodalon" very effectively, the PCB's weren't as bad as I thought either - but thanks for the tip

This is a photo-op I've been meaning to shoot for a while now. I was able to get the shot while he is between experiments. One day I hope to do some actual measurements of players and headphones on this guy. Maybe a summer project while all of the grad students are gone....

Where did this guy have his nose damaged, nosy guy ??
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
Seconded! The usual Russian style fur hat with ear flaps would fit perfectly, and also improve the acoustics of the entire room

He usually wears a hard hat when sitting idle.. Clearly this doesn't protect from nasal impacts as Soren M has pointed out!
Mika is on the right track... His shiny head is quite reflective - a Russian hat will do quite nicely!
