    Re: BeoSound 5 is there !

    Hi Steph. Envious of your stuff, but in my opinion the way you have it displayed does not exploit its beauty. It looks like a rather old fashioned top-of-tv setup of picture frame with 2 vases each side. In my view, better to display the stuff off the tv and perhaps on a glass shelf. Finally, the distance apart of the speakers will not produce a very effective stereo soundstage.

    Sorry if this sounds so critical, I don't mean to offend you, it's just a personal opinion and probably others will disagree.

    Good luck with it anyway.

    Looks great! but I would possibly look at wall mounting all three? Have to admit I am becoming a closet fan...

    I was at B&O Liverpool recently (Huge thumbs up to Nick & co) and saw the BS5... have to say I was impressed, very impressed and like many have said, the BS5 has to be seen to be appreciated.  Also pleasantly surprised about its size and form, actually works quite well..

    Re: BeoSound 5 is there !

    Thanks for the reply,

    in fact, it's a temporary set-up.

    I'm waiting for the Home-Cinema set-up to put the BS5/BM5 in and get a full digital system.

    And i'm very busy to convert all the CD in Lossless ! Stick out tongue

    You're right Kokomo, i don't get a superb sound stage because of the location of the speakers.

    But for the moment, it's OK and i delight to play with the wheels... ! Embarrassed

    Hi,

    I must admit I get a bit jealous of you, but for the moment my BM1 will have to do. Maybe I change my mind during next year, but I need more than a beautiful piece of B&O-design to motivate the buy, at least when it comes to the price tag attached to this one, especially given the BM1 that fulfills most of my needs. Stick out tongue

    Would be cool to see you final set up!! Cool

    I see no cables (nor the BM5) so you have certainly done a good job with the installation so far. I would really love to see some more pictures of your setup and, if possible, a short descripton where you have hidden all the undesired stuff.
