Prototype maybe? Pretty cool though!

Did you find this in the media archive section?

Could be a 2.1 system for used with a PC. Looks to have actual on/off buttons on the front.

I'm guessing it is just the working prototype unit.

Here is the BL 5

That looks like some sort of prototype, possibly innards for prototype tv development?

Maybe is was accidentally uploaded by one of the web designers or something?

Yup. I remember seeing that back when.

 

Perhaps it's a prelude to an updated BL9 with digital inputs  (and hence the grab back in time to show the evolution)  😁

 

Oh, well, one can hope.
