No gapless, no fast forward or rewind , a shame.😡

Yep.

They don't listen to there buyers either.

Referring to BS5 or Moment?

On Moment you can fast forward and rewind.

Thanks MM. This makes good sense, and explains why I can do gapless playback on BS5.

I once contacted Creation5 to ask if they could implement gapless on the BS5, but they said that this would have to be done by B&O.

I got a call from my dealer today who told me that the harddrive was dead and had to be replaced. This would cost about 900 euros😱

I will of course not spend that amount of money on an old system, and a second hand Moment does not cost much more.

However, without gapless playback, the Moment is not for me and instead I might consider changing the harddrive myself. There are several threads in here about this, so I will have to do some studying before I decide what to do. I’m no technical expert, so this may be too complex an operation.

I’ll let you know what I decide to do.

Thanks for all you comments!

Mine cost similar, £400 approximately.

450 euro's by the way is also a ridiculous price for a 1tb harddrive
