I also find it’s a great news: it’s always a good thing to have people investing in youngtimers products and keeping them alives…
But, many question though:
- Price, of course.
- Reliability: is it the same tech that the original that will inevitably make it malfunction within two or three years (independently of the battery health)?
- Usefullness: really nowadays there is very little a Beosound 3 can offer, no other more recent device can make better or at least the same. I know some people have still the unit as part of their brick & mortar life and for them it’s a great news, but…
I used to have two units: one was sold as donor (and curiously find a buyer, whats defeat all I said above…). The other is more a decoration than a music device. Once a year i need to take the keyboard appart and thoughrougly clean it, and it will work for 12-15 month again, but beside displaying time it is useless.
From now on (since a couple of years in fact), I don’t buy anything B&O that has not Aux-In.
And BS3 should have it more than the useless headphone socket.
Anyway, I wish you to sell all your batch.
