Did anyone encounter the same issue? The rubber damper on my new BeoSound system has left a stain on the oak tv furniture. I sent an e-mail to beocare asking how to treat the stain, they told me to contact the company that sold me the furniture piece. a bit easy from their part i think. I expected a different answer, as it is not a € 200 sound system. A €1.700 sound system should simply not leave a stain. Did anyone encounter a similar issue?

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

I read this when I googeled stain. Very unfortunate.
I guess they must be, but it is not the other way around. Design wise I still prefer the BeoSound system, which is b&o not beoplay. ;-)
I had a similar problem.
To solve it you need to understand what the oak furniture is treated with.
If it is treated with a petrochemical based oil - this is usually matt (i.e. danish oil, or mineral oil) then another coat of oil will usually solve it.
If it is treated with a high gloss varnish then what has often happened is that moisture has been caught under the varnish. Very strangely I have solved this by putting mayonnaise on the stain - this pulls out the moisture that is trapped underneath the varnish. NOTE - if you have a Matt coating on your furniture Mayonnaise will likely make it WORSE so test something you can't see first.
Hope it helps - but DONT HOLD ME RESPONSIBLE!
