    BeoLab 2 in White!

    No, sorry - Bang & Olufsen are not releasing one any time soon.

    However - i did one to see what it would look like.  I am building a little concept system for my new office, and have a pristine BeoSystem 6500 in white so far. I plan to add a pair of (customised) White BeoLab 3's on table stands along with this BeoLab 2 in White..

    Maybe not to everybody's taste - but hey, let me know what you think!

    Yes I do like that Lee, looks great IMO. Cannot wait to see what the matching BL3's look like.

    Oooh...that looks very, very nice. Can't wait to see the 3s in white too, Lee. I reckon they'll look amazing too.

    There's something very '2001' about white, futuristic things

    Re: BeoLab 2 in White!

    .....although i would like one in blue to go with my Avant, Blab 3s, 6000s and VX7000 all in blue!

    Re: BeoLab 2 in White!

    Very nice. The shape of the BL2 in white, combined with the same shape and round baffles of the white BL3s will look spectacular with a white Beosystem 6500.

    If you're using the table stands you should do those in white or black satin.

    Re: BeoLab 2 in White!

    I think it looks super Lee! I reckon it will really suit the white Beosystem 6500, and when combined with BL3's will make a fantastic setup. Should be a good job, congratulations!

    Robert.

    Looks really good, Lee. Could it be that you start a new business? "Lifestyle AV, specialist in customized B&O"? Wink

    It was done by my local Honda bodyshop using ICI paint in a low bake oven. The colour is actually Lamborghini white as the one pictured! Honestly!

    PS - I now have a spare BL2 casing... any colour suggestions for my next project? Wink

    How about a BeoLab 2 aquarium? Fill in the sides/front with glass panels, filters & pump go in and out through the back. =]

    Very "2001," indeed. The new white line of B&O also makes me think of the first season of "Space: 1999." Well done, Lee.

    Lee -- I guess you've picked up that I have my Beosystem 6500 connected to a BV8 ... And they're also available in white.

    Just sayin'

    What a coincidence I have a pair of beolab 3 in white.

    Re: BeoLab 2 in White!

    B&O does not offer the BL-2 in colors but after seeing Peter's blue version and now this white one, I wish they would wake up and offer this option, the current choice is getting old and has been old from day one!

    Can you tell I don't like the current BL-2 color choiceLaughing hahahaha

    Fantastic job, Lee It appears to have a "gloss" finish too, I like it!
