Cheers Camshaft,

On reflection then I think i'll go for an MCP 6500 - shame really coz the 7000 is super cool - but the MCP is the better option on balance i think.

I have a 7000 and love it.
I must admit though, that it's apeal is due to it's wow factor. Although the MCP is a fine piece, I don't think it has the wow of the 7000

@Ridax: Would those spare glass and mirror plates be for sale? I have two BL7000, both with scratches on the plates and would like to repair them.

Yes, all parts I have for the BL7000 are available for sale.  Remember that replacing the mirror panel involves 2 solderings (but quite easy ones).

Oh yes i agree Jandyt completely - the 7000 is an amazing thing in good condition etc. but seems to me when something goes on it there's a fair chance these days you cant repair it - or it will cost a lot to do so if it's possible.

In comparison the MCP is fairly bland, but seem to be a lot more robust, a lot more of em around, and if it goes wrong irrepairably, u can just find another one cheap and easy on ebay (cheap compared to the 7000 that it).

What system do you control with ur 7000?

Regards,

I use mine to control my Beosystem 7000 and Beosystem 2300. The Beosystem 2300 is an early one so it has two way communication.

I use it to control the lovely White Beosystem 7000 that I won on Beoworld!  I also have it connected to my (one-way) Avant via a converter. Using AV, I can read Sat and Volume on the Beolink 7000, but obviuosly not the channel number.

HELLO RIDAX,WOULD YOU HAVE A MIRRORED PANEL & GLASS PANEL FOR THE BEOLINK 7000 FOR SALE.IF SO HOW MUCH WOULD THEY COST WITH POSTAGE TO SEND TO THE UK. REGARDS SEAN.
