&lt;p&gt;Yes, Steffen&amp;#39;s set-up is amazing - much better than your store photo.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can&amp;#39;t wait to hear / see Evan&amp;#39;s response when he sees WHITE Beolab 5s &lt;img alt="Laughing" src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And Steffen, a very big welcome to Beoworld - thanks for sharing your wonderful pictures&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You do have an amazing set-up&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Quite beautiful&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sorry Elephant, I asked my dealer to move the BL5 from the Beoliving close to a BV10-40 in the rush to see how it would look like at home...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But, I&amp;#39;m with you to welcome Steffen and his very nice set-up!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Both my friend, both &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/05.gif" alt="Wink" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Aren&amp;#39;t the BL5 the best of both???&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Hi Edouard,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;first...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUY A CARPET!!!!!&amp;nbsp;&lt;img alt="Whistle" src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/16.gif" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The BL9 will sound better if you furnish a little bit your room... And the BL5 will not sound as good as it can sound in your empty livingroom...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hi Marc,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know what you advise me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My wife&amp;#39;s parents will offer us a big carpet for christmas, that&amp;#39;s some good news!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;About the BL5, I&amp;#39;ve already ordered them...they should be delivered on december the 6th...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/Themes/beotheme1/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Llewelyn:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I once installed a pair of Beolab 5&amp;#39;s in a room with an exposed stone wall, polished ceramic floor, 3 glass walls and a high, angled glass ceiling. There were no soft furnishings of any description and it sounded terrible!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have a similar problem where I live as I have very high ceilings and a polished floor in the main room although it isn&amp;#39;t as bad as that. You definitely do need some soft furnishings for good sound, especially with powerful speakers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your reply! Hope these beasts will release their strength at home with my future carpet ;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/Themes/beotheme1/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;Steffen:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Amazing set-up! Thanks for sharing!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here are shots (taken from my B&amp;amp;O store) of the BL5 close to a BV10-40:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n216/EdouardG/BO/IMG_0001.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fact I decided to buy (today) some BL5 to replace my BL9 is because I felt like touching the angels hands but not god&amp;#39;s...If you understand what I mean.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To me, as a B&amp;amp;O fan for years, I&amp;#39;ve always wanted to get some BL5 as they are the Holy Grail for me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers guys,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: BL 5 close to BV 10 / Pics to share?</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/346998.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 21 Nov 2011 14:12:54 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:346998</guid><dc:creator>Steffen</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/346998.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&amp;PostID=346998</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img height="600" width="800" style="vertical-align:middle;" src="http://forum.beoworld.org/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.01.25.90/bilde_2D00_1.JPG" alt="" /&gt;&lt;img height="600" width="800" src="http://forum.beoworld.org/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Components.UserFiles/00.00.01.25.90/bilde.JPG" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Now that I have BL9, I think about replacing them with BL5....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But I don&amp;#39;t know what it would look like close to my BV10-40.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you have some pics to share to show me how such a set-up looks like?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
