Hi Guys,

I had a set of Beolab 18 and Beolab 19 as a 2.1 audio system.

however, I would like to add a pair as 4.1. Could someone give me some idea to choose Beolab17 or Beolab 18, or even Beolab 20?

Appreciate your feedback!!!

thank you

Ivan

To share my experience, I added a pair of Beolab 8000 to my BL 18 / 19 2.1 and I'm vey satisfied. Same design, low footprint, good sound balance and a taste of vintage.

What is the idea, just music or tv too? If just music I personally would ad another set of 18's as they all sound the same everywhere. but non of the speakers mentioned are bad at all, they all are great, they just all sound slightly different :)
