Hi guys,

Just found these two pics from about a year ago.

This was when I had my BL5's changed to white. Changed by B&O technician.

Thanks for sharing, Andreas

NICE:)

 good to see the insides!!!

Thanks buddies!

Oh boy, that looks nasty.

Maybe the technician was careless... At least I hope the technician mentioned about the broken part to you and fixed it at the same time the fabrics were changed?

Nice eyeglasses...

You a BL5 expert?

That's a piece of plastic.

PLease. 5 post and this is the best you can do!?

"Real nasty", a broken plastic stud.

From my memory, those are plastic studs, holding the black plastic plate sitting flush with the fabric on the cone. 

So just relax. It won't make a difference even if one of those studs was broken off by the repairman.

Overreaction of the century.

Indeed.

Well I ringed my B&O shop, luckily they are sending me 2 brand new BL5's for the problem with the broken piece of plastic. The manager was shocked! I even get to keep the old ones. 

"Please don't sue, please don't sue" he cried out during the entire phone call.

The new ones are being sent First class from Czech.

Talking about exellent service

LOL!

Good one

Bravo Alen you are a real expert :)

Andreas, I will take the old ones

They are now destroyed and obviously not worth it to ship over there. Andreas, if Eva doesn't let you keep two pairs, I could spare you the trouble of taking them to the skip

First class?

Thay will only travel first class! You pay for shipping ok?

Sören,

I would even go so far and call it "first class service".

Nono, we can always have the old pair in the garage. Maybe they could even be mounted in the Z4...?

My direction

to pick them up

Guys - calm down!  Poor old chap has been royally 'flamed' here, which isn't the way we do things on here is it?  

If an engineer started snapping lugs on my BeoLab 5's i'd be less than happy, so i think there's an over-reaction to a fairly innocent post here !!

Right, my helmet is buckled on - i'm wearing full body armour and have a fire extinguisher tucked neatly under my left arm.  Go.

Who's "poor" and "old"?!?!?!

Just kidding!

Well obviously he only broke one, so he's only half as bad as if he would have broken two.

But is it "nasty"?

I don't think so. 

The store did try and get paid for the work twice though... That was a bit "nasty".

I have a friend who can borrow me some nice stuff - toys so I can confront you LEE

Andreas knows that guy as well ....

I agree with you Lee, especially as the tech has more than likely left it without saying anything. Some might argue there is a potential source of unwanted noise... It is dissapointing to see B&O using a system that has generally failed to stand the test of time!

Can see lots of these speakers needing a recloth in 20 years.... "oh dear, what was that snapping sound" lol!
