This is from a post from GL:
Here are some words I received on the basic differences of the BM6a and Bm6a mkII from Ed Simeone Chairman of TC electronic/Dynaudio...
I would reccomend the Bm6a in the end due to there mosfet amp design which has alot of benefits. Especially at the price we sell them. I have had a pair for 7 years with no issues. Hope this helps some
"The BM6A uses discrete pairs of MOSFET output devices (IR540-IR9540)
We have not seen the insides of a BM6A MkII or BM12A yet, so we don't know what the amplifier complement will be.
But the bottom line in this: We have heard the BM6A MkII and the sound quality is amazing. Critical listening tests conducted in Denmark showed the MK II to have a superior sound quality, and while it may not get quite as loud as a BM6A, many test listeners preferred the MK II's sound quality. We recognize the BM6A is a studio standard, so it is not being discontinued. Both the BM6A and the BM6A Mk II will stay in the line for a long time, so your client does not have to go elsewhere.
There are many audio enthusiasts who believe that MOSFET amps sound better than non-MOSFET amps. I think I'll stay out of that argument, but I do think the new Dynaudio models are just as exciting as the original BM Series. They have a modern look and a modern sound and while they cost less than the original series, the performance is top quality, something Dynaudio engineers are quite proud of".
