Is that a disc on your platter, or is it "naked".  If so, it is not exactly the same.  Plus, I don't recall my table having a quad mode.  The Beocentral link I got suggests a couple of disturbing things, according to the info I got from it.

1.  My memory is getting too wonky for my own good,  and I better tatoo my children's names and birthdates on me somewhere lest I forget them, too.

2. That the three most highly respected audio outlets in southeast Michigan at the time I bought my B&O system ( Alma's, Pecar Electronics and The Grammophone) WAS INDEED selling discontinued B&O components as recent and new products!  The only products that matched the purchase timeline and manufacturing lifetime were the S60 speakers  The other two components would have been two years discontinued by the time I bought them.  Unless, as the forums list suggests,  there IS a big difference between the European and North American market.

Anyway,  thanks much again for all the help and info,  and I appreciate all of your patience.  Now, one more question:  When I first bought the B&O components, much was made of the fact they operated on 4 ohms, instead of the usual eight.  I also noticed that B&O eventually started making their components 8ohms.  I now have a Miller&Kreisal sat/sub speaker system.  Are there B&O speakers that would serve well as sats, if my M&K sats crap out?  Any info would be welcome.

I can only double-wow your two wows, Dave. Barker has a beautiful set-up. (To Whitefang, the platter is running, while the camera is fixed, which creates the strange looking disc. It has the regular platter for the Beogram 4002).
