Yep, thanks. Found it, jeez it's not layed out too well at all.

Now if only someone would come along and answer the rest of my question, (the click sound the units wings make ~ it isn't the clamper i'm referring to...)

Had a good look Graham, a very good look. Information for that part doesn't appear to be here, unless i've done it wrong?

Look here

Go down to BC2 Specifications. The typist was having a bad day but it is there!!!

When you find it you'll think "no wonder I didn't spot it"

Dave:

I'm surprised this hasn't come up, i searched the forums and found nothing; the cable between the socket box and the unit, is very short! I'll be putting it on it's floor stand when the rest of my belongings arrive.

Are there longer cables readily available? Soundsheavenly don't sppear to stock them...

Alot of the setups illustrated by B&o with BC2 have the unit quite far from the rest of the setup, so i am going to assume that they are available in larger lengths, question is what criminal amount do they charge for such a unique and complex cable?

While i'm here, are there any BC2 owners who have experienced a mechanical ^click^ sound from the unit, as the wings commence their return to closure?

- Thanks in advance, i'm coming here before i have to resort to consulting the dealer here. I do dread having anything to do with them because the few times i've spoken on the phone they sounded simply too busy to focus on my call. Queensland only have ONE dealership!!

You could of course arm your self with the correct part number by studying the Product Pages of this forum!

Then a simple phone call to your dealer such as "How much is BC2 cable, part number *******, please." This must surely get a sensible reply?

If not then report the incident to B&O Head Office in your area. Ultimately, they need your money, so it is not in their interest to p*ss you off.

From Beoworld product section:

The Socket Unit contains most of the electronics, as well as all external connections. This greatly helps the organising and concealment of the numerous cables needed in a typical A/V set-up. In BeoCenter 2 only a single thin cable, available in 1.8, 3, 5 and 10 metre lengths, connects the Master Unit to the Socket Unit. A 1.8 metre cable is delivered as standard.
