Thanks Bieele!
Congratulations to you too for the BeoSound 9000 and for the football match!!!! haha.
The BS9000 is truly a beautiful, iconic device; I am definitely impressed. It feels really nice owning one :) Regarding the clunk sound, I guess I expected it to be very silent; the thing is that in party mode the sound stops when it changes CDs and a clunk sound doesnt really feel appropriate then! I change the settings so that the BS9000 is configured for the floorstand but i still get that sound...
