[quote user="ablaumeise"] What's the grey knob on the right side, though? Looking at other pictures (like this ), that doesn't belong there.

I think you're quite right about minimalism and do respect that. On the other hand I like to copie B&O as much as possible to get the original result. Please continue your excellent thread (with pictures)

Superb job Egoh! The bending of the panels has been done by a professional, must be! Have you got a Cad drawing for these panels? Btw, you painted the 5 side panels of the labs, what did you do with the text on the switch panel? Did you taped them off?

Forgot to tell, Beo 4 wall bracket fits a BL 5000 as well!

Oostenrijk is Austria in English and Österreich in German. Are you Dutch? btw, you got a PM!

Where you from?

Hoi Dennis, Welkom! Voor wat je probleem betreft, sluit je aan in de rij. Er wordt op Ebay een alternatief glaspaneel aangeboden maar waarschijnlijk niet (ik tenminste niet) wat we willen. Ook op Ebay UK wordt wel het een en ander aangeboden aan Beomaster 3500 en 4500 versterkers. Succes!

Hi Egoh, Did some "refurbishment" on a Penta 1 myself a while ago. The grey plastic side panels of the Beolabs has been painted into glossy black and a later Penta 2 pair I did, mirror finished SS panels has been placed. Can't wait for your next pictures
