In all honesty it will end up much&amp;nbsp;cheaper &amp;amp; easier&amp;nbsp;to simply buy a pair of Beolab Penta&amp;#39;s - even if this means selling your Beovox&amp;#39;s to fund this. The BL150 amps are the first ones used in the Lab penta range &amp;amp; were replaced with the BL200&amp;#39;s &amp;amp; they are now starting to develop problems of their own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The only way it would make sense to buy the parts &amp;amp; upgrade a pair of Beovoxes is if they were in truly mint condition or if they had some sentimental value.&lt;/p&gt;

You need a pair (as you would find on a pair of Beolabs) ideally.

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve got a pair of B &amp;amp; O&amp;nbsp; Beovox Penta Speakers. Would i be able to convert it into Active Speakers by connecting it to a Beolab 150 pls.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is the function of Beolab 150?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
