Funny, i have always assumed that BeoSound 1 is far better than BeoLab 4's? Is that really so?

thank you peter for explaining for me.

well, i just meant after I tried beolab 4, I am not satisfied with beosound 1's sound. I know the comparison is not fair, but human needs is unlimited, right? But I am sure... beosound 1 is a great machine. It includes everything we want for a basic machine. It is still temptating me.

also, for beocom 4, well, it is no more "denmark made", it is now made in Czech, well, but it does not matter... i still love it.

so my future possible purchase is beosound 1 and Serene.

He posted another thread asking about buying these items - I think he is reporting back which is welcome. I agree that the Beocom 4 does have a very nice sound - where is yours made? Early ones seemed to come from Denmark. I think some remarks about the BS1 is fair as it does not produce a very good stereo effect - but this is of course understandable due to its size. But its role as a movable speaker is a valid one.

BeoSound 1 = £950 for the entire system in one box BeoLab 4s = £900 for just the speakers & amps, no CD player or radio, plus larger boxes to play with. Not really a very fair comparison..

This thread does NOT make sense.

Beo:
The result is I have given up beosound 1 at this moment. Since it is better than beosound 3, but it is worse than beolab 4. Most important is that it has too much bass, or the high is not clear enough, and its sound is not stereo enough

this sounds quite strange to me. did you try/check to change the sound settings (bass/ trebble)?

well, haha, actually the comparison is unfair.

I should not compare a all-in-one system with speakers which is at the same price level.

I am struggling to understand what you are trying to say. What are you driving at mate?

Beosound 1? Beolab 4? I haven't heard the Beolab 4's or the Beosound 3 but i liked the sound of the BeoSound 1... for it's size. I like it how it's design of the black one on a floorstand reminds me of a music stand.

Surprised about the beocom 4 what?

hello all, i have tried these in B&O dealer.

The result is I have given up beosound 1 at this moment. Since it is better than beosound 3, but it is worse than beolab 4. Most important is that it has too much bass, or the high is not clear enough, and its sound is not stereo enough

for beocom 4, finally i have bought it, although it is not very surprised, but it is just an art. the sound is slightly better than others. But it is not "made in denmark", my god!!!!!
