Hi, i am based in Singapore. I have a beocenter 9000 with upgraded CD mechanism(with clamp) changed by B&O Singapore. The set was sent in for the change last year and checked. The trim is in bronze and i believe the new CDM will last you many years to come. You may find a set with old CDM but you have to be careful as it might breakdown half way through.
My old original box was thrown away due to the humidity problem but i have the after-sale box from them which i got it for my BC9500. I am not able to find the manual unfortunately. Let me know if you are keen and make me an offer.
