&lt;p&gt;your quite right, beolab pentas&amp;nbsp;offer awesome performance and incredible value for money, this may be a better solution than adding a beolab 2 to your beolab 6000s, but only you will really know hearing the 2 set ups side by side&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Had some speaker demos at a dealer yesterday</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/176932.aspx</link><pubDate>Fri, 23 Jan 2009 11:35:47 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:176932</guid><dc:creator>Dave0280</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/176932.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=176932</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi all - just to let&amp;nbsp;you all know i had a bit of a demo session at the Shrewsbury dealership yesterday with some speakers as looking for a bit more bass than my 6000s offer with my Avant. Opinions as follows:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Beolab 8000&amp;#39;s were average - nothing majorly different to my 6000s in my setup. The 8000s with a Beolab 2 sub sounded lovely but i cant justify the cost of 8000s. The beolab 3&amp;#39;s - fantastic little speakers, really punchy and clear and tight, better than the 8000s by a distance. The Beolab 9s sounded lovely, deep, clear and very crisp - but about &amp;pound;4000 so something you&amp;#39;d expect. The 4000s, not impressed, clear but no depth. Adding a beolab 2 sub to my setup is probably the best bet but i could always add a pair of pentas......&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In conclusion - i&amp;#39;m gutted i sold a pair of Lab Pentas a while back as they could rival the Beolab 3&amp;#39;s in my opinion (better than the new 8000s I listened to) and a good used pair for about &amp;pound;1000 for some Mk3s is awesome value for money - other than that the Beolab 3&amp;#39;s are some of the best in the range if your not planning on spending many thousands!! &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m left thinking either Beolab 2 sub or Mk3 Pentas - keep you all posted&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
