    Beocenter 9500 - How should it be displayed?

    Hi everybody,

    I am appealing to allBeoworld members who own or are fans of the Beocentre 9500 (I assume that isprobably most members).  I currently have a BC9500 and it is sat on a lowcoffee table in an alcove in my lounge.  Every time I look at it I smile,as it is such a beautiful piece of design.  But sat on the table it isjust not being shown at it's best and this makes me sad. I know this has beendiscussed a couple of times previously in other threads over the years so I amsorry if I am dragging up the same old subject.  But my BC9500 deservesbetter and I have been racking my brains on how best to show off this fantasticsystem and have so far drawn a blank.  So, I am appealing to all you guysout there who have either solved this problem or have innovative ideas. Please can you suggest any way it can be displayed to show it off at it'sbest?

    Many thanks inanticipation

    Peter G

    There was a wall mount which leaned it forward at an angle of about 35 degrees. Looked very good but you would have to get one fabricated as I have not seen one for years!

    That sounds like a good idea peter, thank you.

    Does anyone have a photograph of one or the measurements so that I could have one made?

    I think a very simple cabinet around 70 - 100 cm in height and wide enough ( at least around 80 cm, twice as that would be perfect ) with nothing else on it but the BeoCenter would be great.

    There is also a stand for it, but I don't think it's very pretty. Lifestyle AV has one, it's the BeoStorage ST9500.

    Have you considered an F1000 unit, a wonderful piece of B&O furniture. It would suit a Beocenter 9500 very well IMO.

    I know what the topicstarter means. If you look from 20" above the bc9500 it's beautifull, but when you look at it from the couch it looks not that great. My solution will be a angled cabinet. I've played before with some 5" wooden bloks under the back of the bc and it looks good on couch position Smile.
