It warms my heart to read this thread despite the grinch, all beautiful pieces from B&O - just given away!! To very good homes too. David sounds like a good bloke and it's a nice name eh?

wonderfulelectric: koning: The only upgrade is the color maybe when they read this it opens their eyes.... Doubt so... B&O is too into preserving its stylish "I don't care about what others think about me" image. lol Sorry, i don't accept that snide remark, and it isn't funny, it's silly! If this is how you feel then why

Several years of the same imgae? I'm afraid it's very likely to be permanent damage...

Why would you want to change from green? It's unique! and really pretty imho :)

halid: Beodim, I am thinking of getting the BeoLab 9s for front speakers and it then felt natural to have the 3s as back speakers. Why do you think it is a waste to use the 3s as rear speakers ? Regards Hans Because he has 8000's and 6000's which aren't anywhere near as fidel as the BL3's, but if you have BL9's the BL3's couldn't

beojeff: FYI: If you should ever choose to wall-mount your BL4000 speakers, I highly recommend buying a second pair of powerlink cables and leaving the existing powerlink cables in the BL4000 stands. The cables are extremely difficult to thread though the stands without damage to the cables. No they're not How have you been doing it? Your meant

Are B&O becoming maybe possibly slightly... frugal, these days?

Oh settle pettle. :) I didn't say they were bad speakers, i admire them and wouldn't say no to them, but they are a different product to the BL9's. The 8000's are a lifestyle product and they sound amazing for the tiny 5 litres of constraint and they will always look beautiful and expensive. BL9's are speakers for the heavt listener

avus17: I mostly listen to pop an classic-pop music. For example: Alessandro Safina, Sarah Brightman, Josh Groban etc. but also Schiller, Bob Sinclair etc. You will wonder how you've been living with your current set-up for so long - when you get your BL9's.

Hey Sean :) OH, phew. :) Did you have it when you had your BV3? Now all i need is to find a cheap one. I've been wanting one for 2 years but still can't afford it brand new... how do you like it Sean > is it good? I imagine the sound quality is good, what sort of video uses is it good for?
