i have the BeoLab 11 together with the BeoLab 6002. it really opens up the column speakers into something else , a sound world i would expect from a larger set up.movies and tv are also much more enjoyable.and you do notice it more when the BeoLab 11 is turned off !!i have owned the BeoLab 2, but i find the design of the 11 much easier to accommodate in a living room set up.

I have the combination BL3s + BL11 for about 3 months. The day I installed the BL11 (after some 3 years with the BL3S by themselves) my first reaction was of disappointment. I notice some difference but not much.

The fact, however, is that the more I listened to it the more I notice the huge subtle difference (if you know what I mean). it is subtle because the furniture doesn't start to rumble around the room and huge because it really complements the music and makes the sound much rounder and full.

I am very happy with the combination. You should have it tested at your home but bear in mind that the longer you listen the more you will like it.

Do you thik they would add much to the sound of Beolab 3's?

I've heard mixed opinions about this (BL3 + BL11 combo). Some say it will, some say very little (ie. very subtle). My guess is the latter, but I'm going to borrow a BL11 from my dealer for a day or two to test for myself.

I have BL3+BL11 combo and I'm really happy of the sound quality. With songs that actually have low bass the difference is huge with and without the BL11 (try Trentemoller - Rykketid and you know what I mean). What I really love about the BL11 is the perfect integration to BL3 - that might give the impression of only subtle addition and that is the way it should be. Getting a home demo is great idea.

Pros:

+Great looks

+Great sound quality in upper bass notes

+Enough power for BL3's

Cons:

-Made the "need" for BeoLab 9's alot smaller ;)

I've combined the BL11 with BL8000's.. Let me just say that my neighbors experience a difference in sound.

Anyway... The BL11 add a very subtle amount of low to your music & movies... After some time you know the difference if it's not there... Then you notice that something is missing..

Hi all,

I have listened to a Beolab 11 at my local dealer where he gave me a demo with a pair of Beolab l4's. In that setup, I could here a big difference but to be honest it was a rather nosiy day with lots of people around. I have also tried to find reviews on internet but the ones available are not proper reviews with different sound tests, etc. Have anyone of you purchased a BL11 and have a longer first hand experience. I would love to hear your opinion about it both when it comes to listening to music as well as in a surround setup, watching movies. Do you thik they would add much to the sound of Beolab 3's?

thanks
