Aw thanks so much man!

Well it's only 88lbs! Haha

What if you didn't pack it? Drop it off, I'll pay for shipping service to pack it.

Thanks so much for both replies man! We sound on the same page :) 

The AV9000 would actually be the holy grail for me too man. Any of them that have the wooden doors. So awesome

I don't have facebook but I will get one, and join the B&O groups and did not know there was a marketplace! Thanks so much for the tip there.

Those Avant's look cool too! I wasn't looking for something with that high profile, cause it won't fit my space for it, but maybe I should rethink that! I wrote them to see if they are still there...

Really appreciate you looking and replying

No problem! Happy to help a fellow BeoWorlder achieve their B&O CRT dreams 😕

Keep your eyes peeled for the AV5 as well. That thing has popped up in the US as well. Nothing more rad in this universe than an orange AV5.

Beek for the win! This is what BeoWorld is all about right here 😐

The MX7000 with a BeoCord VX underneath would be an awesome setup. 

The weight of these old BV's is crazy. I tried to buy an AV9000 in Germany but couldn't lift it into my van which means I certainly couldn't have carried it up the 6 flights of stairs to my apartment.

Let me tell you about the MX7000 first:

• It's black and in great overall shape. The only visible damage I am aware of is at the back where you have the unpainted plastic area. I see if can make a photo of it in day light. It's almost 5:30 am as I write this and still dark 😕
• It's a European version with 230 Volts connection. Not sure if you can convert that easily to US specs
• It comes without a remote, as all the remotes I have are in use. Not sure if you can locate a Beo4 in the Staes easily
• It powers up, the speakers and screen work. I have nothing to connect to the screen, though.

My biggest issue is getting it to the shipping service, it won't fit in my car, but I will sort that one way or another.
