B&O should concentrate on audio and overall sound reproduction, what they do best. I love the B&O sound and would love to see them get more recognition from audiophiles. Pure price / performance ratio could be better, and this is the kicker. The high prices are fine, but it would be nice to squeeze a little more performance per dollar out of

If I were to get the Beolab 5's, Id have it in an audiophile 2.1 channel listening room with perfect acoustic dimensions, then placed to the cardas golden cuboid dimensions with all sorts of ugly acoustic absorbers and no furnishings except a small listening chair. But I guess Im just a crazy audiophile... My Pentas my look beat up, but foam is

Ive got a question: My displays dont work on my penta because Im using the Line-in with an old Yamaha. I noticed in the manual you can adjust the settings of the penta with the display, such as balance, bass, treble. With my setup (no display), is everything set at factory default or is it the last known setting? Is there a way I can reset the settings

I really want to hear a pair of BL5. Do they have them at dealers?

[quote user="EYEdROP"] I have a pair of BeoLab Pentas in a room that is 10 x 11.25 feet. How bad are these things choking? At high volumes, there is some noticable blurring. But thats blasting them.

Thank you guys, much appreciated. I did get the foam rings from good hifi. Are there things in the amplifier that will need replacing soon? Also, what would be an optimal source for the Penta? Im using the pre-outs on my receiver.

About 4 or 5 months ago, I bought a pair of BeoLab Penta Mk3's on a whim for $400. The aluminum is a little beat up and the midrange foam was trashed. At first I wasnt so sure if they would be any good. I was told B&O is a designer speaker company that isnt for audiophiles. But I saw the list price of $3-4k and that it was the flagship model
