I have a beolab 2 with beolab 8000s. For some music the sub is TOO MUCH; for other things, it makes a nice addition. I have seriously considered taking the sub out of the picture, as the 8000s have enough bass for most situations.
What I'd like to be able to do is toggle the beolab 2 on/off without having to rewire anything.
So I guess my answer is, "no, I have not sold it, but yes - I have considered repurposing it for the same reason."
