Hi! I know some of you on list have B&W products such as the MM1, A5, A7 and Z2. I bought an A5 from a January sale at a Hi-Fi store. I unpacked it today and set it up on the kitchen counter to notice that the familiar B&W oval remote control has had somewhat of a face lift. If you look on the underside of the remote - where the battery lives - you’ll notice that the cover now has a slot in it for releasing the cover from the control for battery replacement. I could use a 50 cent piece to turn the cover to allow me to remove the battery and thus the insulating plastic tag which is found in all new B&W units that come with this remote. The design change - as far as I’m concerned - is a welcome one, previous to this the battery cover could easily move and get loose. The cover was easily - or sometimes all too easily - removed with the fingers.
