.....

I was about to buy the wireless and I had a test with my dealer in the store:

----------- BL3 + wireless via BS3200 = the sound was awful.....

----------- BL3 + BS3200 = sound OK...

If you want HI-FI, then forget wireless.

Heard some bad reports on wireless.................

Also there is some doubt if it's compatible with the BS7000 due to age!?!?

They are quite different, I know. Will be a hard choice. I will need some more time, but I hope I won't regret it afterwards. Great avatar!

Tom,

In my case, I cannot tell you which one is better. Each one has something ‘special’ and for this reason I am very subjective.

I cannot have one without the other one.

Because......................

I have a BS 7000 in the lounge with Penta 3's stood either side of my Avant with 4000's as rear and a V8000 hidden away.

Don't really want the BS7000 upstairs as most of the music listening is down stairs................i can really crank it up as i live in a converted old village hall.The BS9000 i agree would look great down stairs.

However if i have it upstairs with a pair of 4000's i can link it to a Bl 2000 in the bathroom and it can wake me in the morning too!

Why would you limit the pleasure of looking at the BS9000 to the bedroom. I have mine in the livingroom and via masterlink it is connected to a BV6 with Beolab 8000 in the bedroom. Still have the option to have me waken up by it. The timer function also works in link-rooms.

Advantage BC2

- DVD player

- smaller

Advantage BS9000

- multi CD

- no hide away box

For the rest it is up to you what you like best

I am planning to buy an audio system too and can't decide between BC2-Audio and BS9000. What are the advantages of the one (not talking about design) to the other in you opinion?

I have a BS9000 in my bedroom. My wife love it (especially at night!). ( it replaced the BS4)

I have also a BC2 in my living room.

Go for BS9000 IMHO. It's a piece of art. Each time I'm going to sleep, the BS9000 is waiting for me....That's cool! Makes me sleep well!

Hi .

Thinking of getting a BS 9000 (preferred)! or possibly a BS 3200 for the bedroom

Can anyone tell me if either have a wake up facility.........either for the radio or cd?

Thanks in anticipation
