Peter : Actually the only problem with the 7000 is the lack of connections compared to my 5500. It no longer has all the RCA plugs , just DIN connections which means that one cannot connect so much. I suppose they needed space for the Powerlink sockets but it is a definite disadvantage. Ah I see................. may as well just bin it then if it's

You have a very, very lucky friend!

Jandyt: Hooray Henry!!! Well done mate. You can take your hat to Italy with you. Surely that should be Sloane Square, London rather than Italy

C'MON CHAPS - this is a free competition, requiring no skill, knowledge or effort and you could possibly win a Beo5 We have threads requesting a user contribution facility and yet we can't even muster more than a few handful of entries to a free competition If you don't really want the hat, use it to take a photograph of the most original

Jandyt: ............................ Probably because I soldered my index finger and clouted my big finger with a hammer on the same hand today. You're nowt if not versatile

As you suspect, the 5000's rely on being wall mounted to achieve their bass performance.
