Eugene:
I like Leslie's new look Pentas. They would certainly match well with a BC 9500 or BS 4500.
Thanks Eugene, when are you dropping by?

Michael and Alan, bought them from Quickshipmetals in the beautifull US of A.
Have a chat with this nice women called Eva or Andrea
The dimensions are: 22 Gauge # 8 Mirror Finish Stainless Steel Sheet .030" Thick 4 pcs. 120x122mm (4.72"x4.80") 6 pcs. 120x128mm (4.72"x5.04")
They cost me 68$ for all. Not sure about the shipping costs for your country!
Use thin double sided tape and drill one small hole for the switch panels led.
Still amazed how they look, really!
Cheers, Leslie

To avoid any mistakes regarding dimensions.
Please check dimensions again for your Penta's!

Very nice set-up mate,
Yes (referring to the BV-5 thread), I think a nice BV-5 replacing your Avant would look good..
Demote the Avant to a bedroom or something. I've stuck my Avant in the snooker room

Leslie:
tournedos:
I'm a bit torn on your Pentas. The shiny amp obviously looks nice in itself and goes well with the rest of the setup, but I also see the point of the original grey design, which doesn't "cut the column" when looking from the front...
Well, in this I have to disagree. Have had several Penta's but this is much better looking then the original dull grey! Looks fantastic!
Personal taste?
Edit: The plastic B&O is using bothers me... And the led is shining through a tiny hole instead of the square hole originally which looks more sophisticated.
I think that the mirror finish on your Pentas look beautiful! Just pure awesomeness. And I cannot stop thinking how good pentas could look if all the panels would be in mirror finish and with black fret. I actually have one active pair and one passive - oh if only I had the time and skills...
