[quote user="rednik"] B&O have gone to lengths to keep things under wraps, and to arrange a proper launch which will release the product to the media in the best light possible, and allow all the proper information to be released at once. [/quote] Unfortuntely they have also given their dealers pictures who are now leaking like colanders

For those interested, the user and service manuals are on site.

[quote user="tompa"] Maybe little but this is not the point ! B&O should be heavy !! ice power for more power and better sound [/quote] Sound quality is said to be unchanged! There are other changes but all done for standardisation reasons. No RCA plugs now.

I would guess it is the cable - what sort are you using? I would use a dock and connect to the RCA plugs for Tape 2.

My S120s were very well balanced - if being critical I would say the bass could be more extended but that is what the MS150 was for! Very clear top end with very few vices except the tweeter shriek at high volumes which seems to be a characteristic of this - and later - range of speakers. I suggest some fettling is required.

I doubt the cut Din plugs mean a lot - you have to take them off if you want to change the outlet from the bass. If you want to completely hide the wire, you cannot avoid doing this. They look like a bargain - sort of!

Think Beosound 5 without the need for a Beomaster 5 (the bit that doesn't work very well!!) and which simply connects to your own music on your computer. I think the others are fairly explanatory though I have not seen the Beo6.

[quote user="Step1"] Just out of interest, and always been curious - do B&O carts slope off at lower frequencies or do other high end cartridges have an exagerated response / sensitivity in the lower end? [/quote] They are pretty flat - but so are almost all cartridges! The MMC20CL is quoted as having a frequency response between 20 and
