All you need are mini jack to powerlink cables and they work a treat. I think they&#39;d suit as rears in your setup. You will need to get the mounting brackets if you don&#39;t have them already. </p> <p>I would consider even mounting them to the wall quite high up rather than to the ceiling. The angle of the speakers willdirect to your seating position a lot better.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/243565.aspxWed, 02 Dec 2009 17:05:33 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:243565Stan0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/243565.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=243565<p>I&#39;m not an expert by any means - I got rid of my surround sound a few years ago... but I think the BL4 would make a decent rear speaker, and, according to my dealer, it&#39;s not that unusual... he told me that he has sold many for rear speakers - they&#39;re small and pack a decent punch for their size... good WAF.&nbsp; I also think their bass would be enhanced with wall mounting.&nbsp; I use them in my bedroom and they work quite well for this purpose.&nbsp; Most on the forum don&#39;t like them, but they probably don&#39;t own them either...&nbsp; I&#39;d say give them a shot...&nbsp; (although I would try them with the TV before drilling - if the room is large, they might be too small - and everybody hears differently <img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/01.gif" alt="Smile" />).</p> <p>Stan</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/243083.aspxWed, 02 Dec 2009 10:19:58 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:243083leogenghis0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/243083.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=243083<p>No experts available? Peter, Lee, Trip...? Guess I&#39;ll just have to try it when the BV 10 comes and report, not that anyone would be interested in the results. As I said, an unusual combination.</p> <p>Leo</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/243016.aspxTue, 01 Dec 2009 22:14:35 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:243016leogenghis0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/243016.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=243016<p>I asked this question in another thread but it got lost within, so I thought I&#39;d start a new one...</p> <p>Years ago I bought a pair of BL 4 PC&#39;s which were never installed. They don&#39;t have Powerlink, but they have signal-detection auto on-off. To find some use for them, would they function as rears in a surround setup, hooked up to say a BV 10? This is a strange combination I know, but it&#39;s only because they&#39;re already in my possession. I don&#39;t see any reason why this wouldn&#39;t work, but would like an expert to reassure me before I drill holes in the ceiling!</p> <p>Thanks, Leo</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
