Sounding great! MMC2. It's connected to my recently acquired (and now fully recapped) Marantz 2275 receiver 🙂 It sounds better than the 4002, which has an MMC 4000. The 8002 sounds a little cleaner - the 4002/MMC 4000 e…

Hi sonavor, Thank you for your welcome and for your helpful comments - much appreciated. As a lover of vintage audio equipment (and classic cars, which I would indulge if I could afford it and had the garaging space), I …

Hi, I have just joined Beoworld after acquiring an 8002 with an MMC2 for a reasonable but not cheap price (£650) from a dealer on eBay. Although it was serviced (last November), it has issues (which might be down to hand…
