BeoLab 17 reviews wanted

27 replies

I’d lke to know why someone would not wait for a speaker that is rumored coming soon?

Could be worth it - if not, the BL17 will still be there.

By the way - that is an overlooked and incredible speaker.

I have BL17 and like them a lot. Had them in floorstands but now on table stands (horizontally). The only challenge I have had with them, and still have, is that one speaker is more bass dominant then the other. I never really got to the bottom with that.

Sorry if this is stating the obvious but are you sure the position switches are set correctly for free/corner/wall?
Good discussion thank you.

If the price of the BeoLab “30” is what I think it will be .... I will probably be looking at the BeoLab 17s too based on these comments !!!

However I have never liked their looks. 🙁

I have a Moment with 2x BL17 and a BL19. The 17s are hanging on the wall.

It is a fantastic setup. The BL17s do have a good bass on their own (which I did miss a bit in the BL18s, but could be personal). By adding the BL19 the sound distribution became a complete ‘curtain’ in stead of just the 17s.

I can recommend them to everyone.

I heard the Beolab 17 with Beolab 19 today. I was very impressed 🙂
