Hello,

It's my first post in this forum. I'm french, 31 years old and I like B&O since I was 15. I read this forum for 1 year because I bought at this time my first B&O product : a second hand 2300 with a pair of 4000. Then I bought other items to fit with the house I was trying to restore : a lab 11 and a pair of 6000, a 3500... At this time, I've only bought audio products

Now the project is finished and I can post some pictures.

Thank you for this so good forum !

Another view... I designed the furniture to be able to hide each cable...

The beautifull Lab 11... it is the first new product I Bought in the B&O shop in Toulouse. The best technical service I've ever seen !

My kitchen... with 4000 and the beolink active Ir-eye.

And my bedroom. I use the 3500 almost every day. It's really good to have music in this room. All my system is masterlinked and i use airplay everywhere. I like this setup ;) !

a wonderful collection - the Beovirus' bite was deep and the infection quite bad

great pictures - thank you for sharing

and I think you woodwork and design is outstanding - such an inspiration and it makes the speakers look terrific

Im totally new to B&O so this is my first B&O product

Good choice Tompasten... and thank you elephant for your comment !

What a shot! What amp is hiding between those Labs??

EDIT: My gut says Levinson..

Hi guys,

Just a little set-up update:

The Beo6

Now the BS9000 is back on its floor-stand

A little Lutron Rania (from Steve SoundsHeavenly) to control the ceiling

And my all new Beocom 2 (amazing in polished alu!) to replace the Beocom 5

Some labs would be nice close to my BV10....To be continued.....

Cheers,

Found a teak Beomaster 3400 with matching Beovox S-35's at the local Salvation Army. Everything works, just in need of idle current adjustments.

Maybe this could form the base of a four-channel system with a Beogram 3400 fitted with CD-4 board, some S-45's as front speakers

That project could be kinda fun to try out, though I don't have the space for it and I probably won't have until I have moved into my own house in many years! For the record, I am living at home with my parents, 18 years old

That is beautiful, Soren. Absolutely loving the light wood tone!

I live at home too.. As my BeoCollection thrived I was forced to conquer more space so that it could grow . As a result of my campaign, I now occupy almost an entire floor!!! - the basement!

Thanks, Evan!

It's nice to know that I'm not alone when it comes to be a young BeoCollector! I have several systems in storage unfortunately

The Teak veneer is actually a little different compared to my normal preferences, I tend to like rosewood better, having all other systems in rosewood; but the teak really adds a contrast to the anodised black aluminum topplate of the Beomaster

No problem Soren

All of my vintage kit is rosewood too. However, I have been a huge fan of the oak and teak stuff all along.

I say you should get firm with those parents of yours and spread out all of that magnificent Beo!

The problem is that my Father is beginning to flood the house with more B&O! Thanks to me, he now has 3 complete Beosystems and some loose Beomasters lying around 

Well, that should not be a problem ;-)

You are so lucky starting to collect BEO products in your age. I needed to grow up a little more to be infected by the BEO Virus.

Just keep it going.

The polished alu looks spectacular! I have not seen that one in the flesh. Only the glossy white and the glossy black.

Is the surface of the phone sensitive to fingerprints?

Hi Edouard! Nice setup and nice photos!

Why don't you connect the BL 8000 to the BV10?

Ah, the folly of youth.

Wait 'til you have an unenthusiastic wife.

Luckily B&O tend to have a higer Wife acceptance factor than most other gear 

His Beomaster 8000 is kept in the mancave because it is "too damn big", same thing with my MS150.2's

Me and my Father are working each other up on higher levels of B&O nerd-ness; I find a Beogram 4000, then he must also find a Beogram 4000 to keep up. Originally, I was inspired by his Beolab 6000 system and my first B&O became an old Beovision 7700 and a Beomaster 2400-2 at the age of 6 years

I bought a Beosound Century in very good condition for my son when he was 4 weeks old. Couldn't resist the offer He's now 2 1/2 months old. Completly disassembled the unit, cleaned, serviced and reassembled it. Now my son can hear his sleeping music with style.

Hi Hiort,

Thanks for your comment!

Yes, the Beocom 2 in polished alu is amazing and not bling at all cause it's like BL8000 that reflects the wall color.

I chose it because its look made me feel like the old PanAm airplanes ;)

It's not very sensitive to fingerprints and I think that most of the hairline scratches won't be visible in such a polished finish.

Hi Daniel,

Thanks!

I didn't connect them to the BV10 yet because of the chimney that doesn't allow me to put a ML cable between the BL9000 and the TV.

I'm still thinking about how to do it the cleanest way as I don't want the ML to be visible....

I already know what it's going to be like.. Girlfriends comments of the past can all be equated to "meh."

After I bought my BeoLab 5000s, my girlfriend at the time said that they were "ugly!" Can you believe that?!

Put the Beolab 8000s on either side if the BV10 (connected to the TV). Masterlink the 9000 to the BV10 and put this between the frireplace and the TV. Your BV10 speaker will become a centre channel if you set it in Speaker 3.

So that back wall will be:

fireplace -> Beosound 9000 -> Beolab 8000 -> Beovision 10 -> Beolab 8000

You'll then have a nice big wall to hang some art
