They can be solved, but the 4000 has the advantage of being of a simpler design.</p> <p>I like both Beomasters a lot, having the Beomaster 4400 which is a big brother to the 4000 and a Beomaster 5500 which is exactly the same as a 6500 <img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/01.gif" alt="Smile" /></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/338153.aspxSun, 11 Sep 2011 07:34:45 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:338153Friedmett0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/338153.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=338153<p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The BM6500 will power all Beovox and Beolabs as well. Some Beovox would be better suited though. The output is mot likely around 2*55 not 110 as stated so make sure the Beovox&#39;s can handle that. </p> <p>What is better is up to you and your ears. Do you like the design better? Do you like the sound better?</p> <p>Do you need everything being controlled with a Beolink 100 /Beo4 or MCP6500?</p> <p>A BM4000 is late &#39;70s and a good one if it still works correctly.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/338152.aspxSun, 11 Sep 2011 07:22:26 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:338152steve19890https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/338152.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=338152<p>hi will the beomaster 6500 power the beovox 3800 speakers and 1001 speakers also ? and is it better than the beomaster 4000 tuner and amp ? </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
