&lt;p&gt;The early ones also feature a &amp;quot;proper&amp;quot; mains cable. Not the teeny-weeny usual B&amp;amp;O mains cable. Looks better IMHO, not sure if it makes a difference... &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" alt="Laughing" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The early one without pincode protection and the newer one with pincode. The newest sw of the early one is 1.62a as far as I know. The other is 2.62 (?). Both sound great! And their best protection is the weight I think.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;More info:&amp;nbsp;http://www.beoworld.org/beotech/beolab5service.htm&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope this helps&lt;/p&gt;

This was around late 2004 from memory. All it was though as far as I know, was a revised set of values for the crossovers. Remember been in a dealers whilst they were updating a pair they had. It was when I was looking at buying my BV3. Purchased that in November 2004. Hope this helps.
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have a chance to purchase a lightly used 2004 pair of BL5 and was wondering if they would give anything away in perfomance&amp;nbsp;to a 2007+ build pair?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
