Kiran:I'm in love with this thing... Regards Kiran
Ferdinand:Very cool Kiran, have one myself snd it's great. You know that you can turn the disc with B&O logo 90degrees so the text 'Bang & Olufsen' is positioned horizontally. And, but now I am getting a bit OCD here, if you place your CD's just a tat neater (text or logo horizontal) , the CD mechanism will always put it back in same position. Also (if I am informed correct) when you put the cd back at s later stage. Enjoy you BS 9000
Kiran: My discs stop 1 or 2 degrees out from the straight horizontal OCD placement that I did initially with all discs. This is annoying me. It is Mint and I got it from B&O Lincoln. Is there something wrong with it?

Nothing to worry about. A few degrees are acceptable according to the sw. It has all to do with the optics that measures the position.
Kiran: It doesn't work with the BS/BM5 when I press N.Music or N.Radio on the Beo4. I think I need the NL/ML Converter which I am waiting on.

It should work without as both are ML products.I've had it working, only combined with a BV9.

Correct. You need software version 2.21 for the mk1 and mk2.
The mk3 should work out of the box. The pictures of the display of the BS9000 confirm that.
Kiran:I brought it back downstairs to test out the BL3500 link speaker and also the cables I bought (RJ45 to Masterlink). It all works. The time shows up on the 3500. There's also a timer setting and an alarm clock function. Wicked! It's also touch sensitive on parts of the display... I didn't know that ☺️I'll keep it here with the Avant until the converter arrives. I don't mind listening to it through the 3500. I use the Beoremote One and it works fine. It confirms my theory in running all RJ45 Wall Plates back to the server room and then patch them into RJ45 Masterlink Modules to create the Masterlinks. It also confirms the cables work!

StKong:Hi, Kiran. Looking good. What display pets are touch sensitive?
Kiran:It switches on in Radio when you touch it. I may need to read the manual lol.
That is because it uses either what was previously selected. As the button says "Mute/Unmute" not change source.
To change the source you will need to use the remote control.

Kiran:What would I use the DIG OUT pin for? Regards Kiran Born in NL; I ride ML
StKong:Digital audio recording was en vogue when it was released. Remember minidisc? I gather that would be why. Or you could add a pair of BL5 or 90s...
Kiran:Yes the Beo4 makes all sources work including N.Music and N.Radio. I read the manual that only Radio can be switched on up close as well as mute/unmute and timer on/off.

If your complete system meaning every product on the MasterLink is switched to standby, then you press the "Mute" button on the Beolab 3500 it will switch on the Radio as you stated. However, if say, a CD is playing in another room and the Beolab 3500 is in standby and you press the "Mute" button, then the Beolab 3500 will show CD, you will be listening to the CD already playing.

noup... i'm talking about BS 9000
I have owned many B&O's but never had the luck of being able to own the Beosound 9000. I hope one day I'll find one....they pop very rarely in my country and if they do, the prices are ridiculous. Its definitely worth owning. An icon forever.

BenSA:I Its definitely worth owning. An icon forever.
No ..and i'm no going to..not yet ..maybe one day ..if.. ..i have other alternatives now.
i only have small problem..
Can anyone tell me what is the diffence MK1 and MK2 fm tuner.
On MK2 i can see tuner running RDS text on the MK1 not ..just RDS station no running text.
Kiran:Doing a software chip upgrade and buying an NL/ML converter makes the 9000 the sexiest music system on the market that cannot be outdated.
Kiran:What would I use the DIG OUT pin for?
I use my BS9000 as a CD player only and take the digital output to feed a digital input on my (non B&O) preamplifier.
