Default Re: Bang and Olufsen Help Required

Well..., to continue where I left off.
I bought a complete Beocenter 9500 complete with a pair of Cx100 and a pair of CX 50 speakers, cables, speaker stands. Had it serviced, needed a new cover motor and cassette drive belts. I re foamed all the loudspeaker bass drive units (6 in total).
In the meantime I had the luck to come across Bob on the forum, who sold me a pre 3 phono stage, which sent me off to Mathew for the matching power supply. After many helpful calls to Bob the power supply and pre were fitted between my Void Valdi Deck and the Aux input on the B and O.
Now it's been in use a while my conclusions are:
World Design products very good, nice clear sound without being bright and wearing. The Beocenter performs quite well, nothing spectacular but nothing to fall out with, if I didn't know better it would suffice. The CX 100 speakers have 1 tweeter and two small bass drivers (3 1/2 inch each). Mid and top very clear but bass lower end totally missing.
So, I've tried the B and O and as I own better, it's not for me. After hearing, and being impressed with the World Design products, I'll buy a Pre 3 CF from Mathew and hope Bob will again be kind to me with his advice.
Now, I need brownie points, so off to buy the chocolates and flowers!!
