Moxxey if you see it in real life, it look´s much better

I can imagine it does. My next B&O TV will be all-black for sure.

Great!!!

Looking more like "old school" B&O - av9000 and BV1, BC1 which I really like !!!

Nice setup, but I think corner position is not very attractive.... in my taste it will be much more better on non corner position....

Enjoy......

I have looked at the 740 with the BL10 a few times now and i'm not a fan! Give me an av9000 over this anyday. BL7.2 to me looks just 'right'.

We all have different tastes! :D

You seem thrilled, and that is what is the most important, you didn't do this to get a bunch of strangers online to approve!

Beolab:

Hehe it´s true, i have changed TV two times, color of the frame three times and changed the center speaker three times. =)

By changing colors, do you mean you changed TVs or did you actually change the color on one TV? If so did you do it or have B and O do it?

Here is my history:

At first i bought a BV7-40 in Silver MKII with Beolab 7-2.

Then i bought one more BV7-40 MK III in Dark Grey with BL7-2 in Dark Grey

Then i changed the BL 7-2 to a BL 7-4 DK

Then i changed the frame on my BV7 to Black by my self. I would not recommend anyone non experienced person to do this advanced procedure.

Then last week i ordered a new BL 10 all Black with MS1040 STB bracket.

Thanks Stars!

I only bought the BL10 for the look in the first place, but the sound are much better than my previous 7-4.. More dept and clarity in the lower end. (45Hz instead of 50Hz )

I think it match the BL8000 quite well because of the textile front covers instead of the metal grill cover of the 7-4 is one reason...

You must see it in real life to get the right appearance how it looks together..

Thanks for sharing photos with us, Fredrik. Unlike most others I am really not a fan of the BeoLab 7.1 or 7.2, I find them terribly boring. However I do love the BeoLab 7.4 and prefer the sound. I quite like the BeoLab 10 as you have it, better than the BeoLab 7.1 and 7.2, but not as perfect as the BeoLab 7.4 in my opinion. I have heard BeoLab 10 quite a few times now at my dealer and think the speech reproduction is better than any other B&O centre speaker. Enjoy!

Moxxey if you see it in real life, it look´s much better than my poor digital camera can show...=(

Hehe it´s true, i have changed TV two times, color of the frame three times and changed the center speaker three times. =)

But like David Louis say: -I don't care if some people like or don´t like what i create, as long my design creates reactions to people! Then my design have bin a success!

I will take some better photos with a real pro cam soon..

Sorry Fredrik, but I think this looks awful! I am sure that it sounds very good, but I really don't like the BV7-BL10 combination.

It doesn't look right at all, you're correct. I love the all-black BV7 (and wish I'd gone for this option with my BV7-40, darn), but an all-black BL7.4 would look much better.

Still, everyone's tastes, thoughts and desires are different. Don't let us influence your enjoyment of your setup!

Visually I think the BL10 goes very well with BL8000. Nice setup!
