In the following Beovision 8 video, are my eyes playing tricks on my in the first right to left wipe, when a beolab 3 on an aluminum stand passes quickly by... does it seem to have it's acoustic lens crown disappear into itself? It is definitely facing us.... Does anyone else see that?

You are right! It really looks like the acoustic lens goes down into the speaker! Strange!

It's because there is a black bar in the top and bottom, (16/9)

You're right, but it would be quite cool.... any volunteer that likes to mount the acoustic lens of the Audi A8 in a BL3?!?

Good lord! I feel so silly! The blacks are really black on my Mac!

Sorry but there is on room at all left, inside BL3 would be so cool if it was possible. But BL9

I can't see how it could be done with the BL9, the lens is mounted completely differently.

You're right about the BeoLab 3 cabinet volume though, there is absolutely no space left inside a BeoLab 3, I'm surprised there's any usable cabinet volume from an acoustic point of view left, but they manage to do it. The amount of electronics inside them is incredible...

Couldn't be done, there's nowhere for the flat plane around the tweeter to go...

Yeah same here, the blacks are good on the mac. I fell for it for a second there

and this is why grey scaling is soooo important. The details are all too often lost on displays that focus so heavily on black levels.

Thanks to B&O we have adaptive black so that doesnt happen :-)

That´s not an answer David Lewis would accept from the engineers!
