Reviews

• The BX-100 series units, as well as some units from other manufacturers during this period, have a so-called idler ex-factory for the drive, which is not considered to be particularly wear-resistant.

• Audio 09/1985: Comparative test of the similar Dolby C model BX-125 E: sound "excellent" (2nd highest positive rating), rating 3 ears.

• FonoForum 05/84;

Stereo 06/1984;

• Stereoplay 05/1984: top class IV (lowest classification of the "top class", then followed by the "upper middle class").
