I have now made an initial sound test between the original Beolab4000 and the rebuild version with the Sonos built in amplifier. The result is very positive! It is a dramatically improvement with the Sonos amp! The sound is much more open, this is specially present with the voices. The bass is more precise and nuanced in the rebuilded speakers.

Questions?

Did you pair two rebuild speakers?

Which source did you use with the original BL4000's?

Yes, I rebuild two speakers and got two more as original.

I used Sonos Connect via the RCA input for the original Beolab4000  in order to make it as equal as possible.

P.S. @carljh, kindly use your first sale to buy a gold membership here, in order to post to sell stuff.
@carljh We do normally ask you to pay for gold membership before offering items for sale, in particular in this case it looks as though you are offering to sell this item commercially. Would you please be so kind as to purchase gold membership on the site so that you are helping to give something back to our community? Many thanks!

Hi Steve,

I wasn't aware that you had these requirements you mention above. I have looked everywhere and can't find how to upgrade to a gold membership nor how much it cost and how to pay?

Regards,

Carl

Click the 'Main Web Site' link above (or under the Menu button if using a phone), then look to the right hand side below the LOGOUT button - you should see a link to 'Upgrade/Renew Membership'.
