Have heard that we can expect a new finish for the BC2 - will get both Aluminium and steel finishes. There is also to be an audio only model designed for those with a BV7 so that the DVD is not duplicated. Obviously cheaper - I seem to remember someone asking for this so they do listen! The difference is in the cable box - the head units are the same

ICE power rated at 35W per module but producing the same sound pressure as the old ones. I guess this is done for economies of scale rather than anything else. It would be interesting to hear them side by side!

Need to buy a new iPod as this one is full! Why they fit such small drives is beyond me! (Full 80Gb model!) I clearly need to go back to the BS2!

We have added a considerable number of user and service manuals to the site but the lists are not comprehensive. However if you particularly want a manual and it is either not there or is not in the correct language, please request it on this thread and we will attempt to find it and put it on site. Manuals are available to those members with either

It shouldn't do - it was designed so you could fit a graphic equaliser to the set up - should that be something one should want! However the pre-amp out should be the ticket.

Worth a try! I seem to recall that the 5000 does have proper pre-amp out sockets whereas some of the later ones simply had an attenuated power amp out - which was not the same at all! I see the picture now - is it the Line in and out that are connected?

Are those the ones with a pair of metal U links in them. The problem with these are that you lose any power amplifier output and MCL . may not be a problem.

I use a splitter - two input sockets going into one jack.
