It was without dought the most wonderful sound you&nbsp;can imagine, slightly mellow, but full of detail &nbsp;especially in the higher frequencies. The BM6000 was later replaced with the BM7000 with similar results, although in a stereo only configuration, untill eventually the whole system was replaced with a Beosound 4 with BS3 and BS2 combination. The 4 Tannoys now sit in my garage waiting for the day&nbsp;that I can return them to the rightfull place in my&nbsp;listening room,&nbsp;having given them new foam surrounds (yes, other loudspeakers do&nbsp;suffer the same foam rot as B&amp;O speakers!!)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/230079.aspxSun, 04 Oct 2009 12:44:09 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:230079beaker0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/230079.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=230079<p>A friend of mine uses a pair of Tannoys (Lancasters I think) with 12inch dual concentrics and he loves them. When ever I go round and listen to them, at first to me they sound horrible but after a couple of minutes they seem very good. Nice and natural sounds. I was wondering if anyone on here uses Tannoys with any B&amp;O equipment. I did have a pair of Tannoy 3LZ&#39;s with the 10 inch monitor golds (known as bookshelf speakers - you must have very big bookshelves!) but sold them as I got them for a pittance. Maybe I made a mistake.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
