BL 14 or S8

BL14 is nice looking and its a tad smaller.  The BL19 is an amazing bit of kit though, the level of the bass can always be adjusted, if you want a high quality sound, which is responsive, and not "boom boom", then the 19 is the right choice.  It's opposing drivers almost totally eliminate vibration and create a fantastic sound.  I don't believe it's too powerful for you, my room is only slightly bigger maybe.

No need to replace the speakers, just add the sub; 

shouldn't be any problem; 

for the size of your room and your set up I think the BL14 sub would suit you the best.

The 19 is a powerful sub and may be too much so for the size of your room..

I would not suggest you remove the 12 series speakers to replace with satellites. (sorry if

you took my suggestion of the bl14/s8 that way)

Plastic!

Pretty much the same material as your BL12's - only without the front-cover 😮

How about a BL11 in white?

That would be my suggestion also, it has done wonders to the sound of my Beolab 4000s and is IMHO the best one design-wise.

Thank you!

 

A high quality "not boom boom sub" is exactly what I want. So you think I could go for a bl 19 and be satisfied, don't you? I mean... you are in your Living room... Right? Do you notice the presence of the sub even at low volumes?

Absolutely I'm recommending it.  No it can't be heard at lower volume.

I'm watching a TV show right now, at volume 50, no sound, as there's no need.  If I was watching a movie, it would be heard, but it's fairly subtle, same for music.  Of course at 60, everything is louder.  As I said before, having had other subs, which don't have opposing driver, there is vibration, even can feel the sofa vibrate, with the 19 this doesn't happen in the same way, clear and robust low notes but without the rumble effect which I hate.
