Differences between B2 Black and B2 Metallic??

[THE REAL RFI-EMI-GUY]

Can someone explain the exact electrical and mechanical differences between the B2 Black and Metallic?

Is is simply knob color and HDD size (options)?

Is the housing different?

[Daniel Taylor]

The only difference is purely cosmetic.  The Metallic is bare brushed aluminum.  That's what I have, so I can't say exactly what the Black one looks like.  But I imagine it is quite similar to most black audio component of the past few decades.  There are pictures of each on the Brennan website.

There is no electrical or mechanical difference.

Hi rhyolite,

Just the colour of the front panel - everything else is the same - so all HDD/SSD options are available in both colours.

I was wondering because when I look at the store the Mettalic appears to be priced at the 2TB price only and the picture looks like black.

Also which are the SSD vs HD options?

The picture of the Metallic is deceiving - in my opinion.  I bought that style because of the picture and then was surprised when it arrived.  In the picture, it is reflecting what else is in the room.  It is silver colored.
