The cloth is from a local speciality warehouse that carries a huge selection of every type of garment imaginable. Lycra like this is commonly used it figure skaters' dresses, it's very flexible, transparency is relatively low and it comes in variety of colours. It's a bit like stockin material, only thicker. It just might work for RL as

Checked a couple of mine, one from '94, another from '96 and they both have the logo. I hadn't noticed it before.

Thanks! I like the modern, unique shape of Pentas and IMO white makes them really stand out (or, in my case, blend in.) A pair of polished CX 100:s with white frets would be a perfect match to them, as surround speakers, as well as a single ceiling-mounted center. Your pics of mirror-finish CX:s were truly amazing and now the all-white ones I have look

I've tried a few "real" speaker cloths, but none of them have resembled B&O OEM frets. Patterned ones that can be found in shops that sell vintage PA eq't restoration accessories are usually far too coarse, DIY speaker shops' cloths are plain smooth and colour range is limited. There's plenty of choice on eBay but you never

The "Penta White" project is well underway, one speaker almost finished. Finding a suitable cloth for Pentas wasn't easy and I ended up using satin matt white lycra, 120 deniers or so, which is a pretty good match to original frets, with the exception of colour, of course. Acoustically it's virtually transparent (free field response

[quote user="cooldude"]After that we cleaned them and did a clearcoat on it to protect the finish which is baked under UVds ( the lines on the sides were put back on later and are handapplied with a matt lacquer) I am very pleased with the result and they look amazing .... glad you liked it[/quote] Very good indeed. I've polished various

[quote user="beodude"]I agree with Avus completely, during recession, the things people stop buying are luxuries - who here doesn't think of B&O as a luxury.[/quote] I'm in a "want" -business (design), nobody really needs the products I'm selling and business has been on a steady rise since last summer.

I've used the Universal Dock with an older B&O system that hasn't got a remote. Its own remote has basic functions like forward/back and volume, but other "features" like very quiet output level (which, incidentally, can only be adjusted down) and mediocre sound quality are serious drawbacks. Proper, comprehensive integration and

[quote user="avus17"]So BL2 yes or no?[/quote] Not quite being aware of how low 8000's can go in practise, or how good a sub BL2 exactly is, I'd still say yes, providing that the cutoffs and phase can be matched. Few if any full range speakers can reach subsonic frequencies, much less cleanly, and subwoofer's whole concept is to
