BeoSound 2 is so simple and intuitive to use, there is no need for a display. The thumb-tip navigation quickly becomes second nature. Just enjoy the faithful music reproduction through the earphones, without unnecessary complication. Copy music onto the memory card directly from your computer. A specially designed docking station provides the connection to the computer and, at the same time, acts as a convenient power charger

The minimalist approach is sometimes best.......2007-12-02
I've owned the BeoSound 2 since 2002, and I've never been disappointed.
As you can see, B&O has taken a different approach with the design, which should come as no surprise to those who have enjoyed the company's minimalist approach to its audio components in the past.
There are just seven buttons, and their functions are very easy to learn.
Holding some of the buttons simultaneously provides other functions, such as locking the device, setting it to shuffle and have it rescan the card. Those are explained in the manual.
Because there is no display, you really have to remember the order of the albums on your card if you are searching for a specific track, for example.
The BeoSound 2 does not contain a hard drive. Rather, it relies on SD memory cards, which you can change quickly. Currently, the maximum size card allowable with the BeoSound 2 is 2GB. Perhaps a future firmware upgrade will provide for larger-capacity cards.
With 2GB cards, I've found moving from album to album can be slow. I haven't tested with other 2GB cards, so I don't know if this would be rectified by using a different brand of card. There is no delay with smaller-capacity cards. However, there is a pause between songs, which seems to happen with other MP3 players.
The BeoSound 2 fits nicely in your hand. Battery life is decent, although with all internal batteries, there is no simple way to replace the cell when it comes to the end of its servicable life. That's a fact with all rechargeable batteries, so it's not limited to the BeoSound 2.
There is no equalizer with the BeoSound 2. From what I can tell, B&O has chosen to adopt a neutral approach, which I think is the correct method. Bass lines don't sound tubby or artificial, and higher tones retain their natural timbre without sounding bright.
I've used several earphones and headphones with this. B&O's own A8 are a very nice set, although you'll need to fiddle with the ear bar to find a comfortable height. I've also used several different sets of Sennheisers, which sound really fantastic.
If you're tired of the "me too" designs from everyone on the planet, take a look at the BeoSound 2. Just make sure you have plenty of cash in your checking account.
Pros: Great design. Easy to operate without looking at the buttons. Great audio.
Cons: Limited to 2GB capacity SD cards (holds about 17 to 20 albums). Travel charger and other accessories are unreasonably priced. Too easy to inadvertently press buttons if it's in your pants pocket.
no comparision whatsoever.......2007-09-25
Well first of all i always admired the designs of Bang & Olufsen. Its hard to believe that only 7% of Americans are familiar with this brand. It has been rated the top luxury audio brand in the world followed by BOSE.
It all started when i was trying to buy a mp3 player for myself. Most of my friends recommended ipod. Buy i said :C'mon guys, every other guy standing next to you has an ipod." I was looking for something unique. Then i came across this mp3 player - Beosound 2. I tried to give it a shot, so i went to the showroom and tried it. Guess what, i was blown away with its crystal clear music. I purchased it the same day. It comes with a three year warranty.
Pros: design, sound quality, overall performance.
Cons: no display, price.
Actually, you cant really complain about the cons. It was buit without a display because it runs on an SD card with 20 albums in it. So it could get really difficult to find a song if it was more. What i do is I carry multiple SD cards with 20 albums in each .Simple.
Coming to the cost, if you are trying to buy a B&O product, Price must not be in the frame of mind. There are some things in life for which you have to pay the premium price like a lamborghini or a Zegna Suit or whatever.
Coming to the player, the music is flawless. The earphones are very comfortable too. There's nothing like listening to your favourite song on a Beosound 2, its priceless. You cant measure the expression you get out of it. Well i read a lot of reviews where people said the price is too high. C'mon you gotta hear it first and you dont expect to get a ferrrari for the price of Honda, do you?
Anyways i am highly satisfied with this product and i just wanted to say that if you are the kind of person who puts design, quality and taste before price, you might wanna try this out.
Bang & Olufsen has recently released its second mp3 player Beosound 6.It costs around $800.

Customer Reviews:
Great Value!.......2007-08-13
This is not a cheap cable, but it is a cheap price. I was amazed at the quality of this cable when I received it.
If you need HDMI, don't pay those outrageous prices for name brands, this works GREAT for a lot less.
With digital signals, you either get a picture, or you don't, paying tons more $$ at other cables, is nothing more than a waste of your money.
If you don't work that hard for your money and can throw it away, please throw it towards me instead, at least I won't bilk you out a lot more $$ for absolutely no increase in picture quality, I'll just honestly take it from you and give you one of these cables and you'll see no difference in picture quality, but you'll know exactly how i handled it, unlike those who will have you believe otherwise.
HDMI cable (affordable).......2007-03-09
This "affordable cable" works the same as the VERY expensive Monster brand... I am quite pleased with it
