jandyt: Up periscope! Fire One! Fire Two! === @ Alex - and when you check out the price of the Overkills, and add the amp's, the DSP processing unit, the room correction module ... then you really start wondering. The guy who designs them is very serious about his work, though. He travels to all his clients setting them up - no matter where they

tom: wow! great story and wonderfull picture. I think I'll come and spend my holidays at yours. It keeps raining over here... You'll have to hurry. I've recently sold the place, after nine wonderful years here. Closest neighbour is rarely home and a good distance away, which means I have been able to play music at a comfortable volume outdoors

Standard Operating Procedure - (SOP) Your wish is my command. Note how cleverly the BL3s have been matched to the dock's night-lantern! Apologies for the exposed wiring. (Usually I have them connected to a DAC's analogue out, but I didn't want to overload the cable down to the dock.)

kuyttendaele: That's the only way you are able to move a BL5! The (lower!) disk is constructed that way so it can be carried by 2 people.. or keg rolled by one person :-) I was still amazed when I first saw it. Said something about the thinking behind the product! Of course, you don't want to ruin the cloth, and you really would break your back

Peter: soundproof: David: VERY cool, you must be feeding those speakers steroids, because you always have wacky stories with your BL3's, and people vowing to buy a pair! I guess that if I were to take the BL5s out on the patio the birds would drop out of the air ... More than likely - but probably vultures to feed on the broken body having lifted

David: VERY cool, you must be feeding those speakers steroids, because you always have wacky stories with your BL3's, and people vowing to buy a pair! I guess that if I were to take the BL5s out on the patio the birds would drop out of the air ... Yes, I think I'm becoming quite an advocate for BL3s. Several of my friends have bought their own

Yesterday was a wonderful morning, so I took my BeoLab 3s outside, connected them to an Airport Express and sat in the open air enjoying the music. Something I've done for years, though not with the BL3s - it was a first for them. They were mounted on stands, behind me on the patio - and though I had my back to them as I looked across the water

Yes, I know the feeling. Have never managed to get comfortable with the new electrostats myself, though the Quad ones have wonderful sound. Electrostat design today is function over form. You need the panels, you need the "see through", and in the case of the Martin Logans you need the curvature, which spreads the sound a bit more. (One weakness

Double post.

They need to be fed right. I've been told the precise bass of the Beolab 5000 will connect nicely with these speakers. In two months I'll know!
