Hi,

I currently have a pair of Beolab 20 hooked up to a Denon X4300H and was wondering if there is any way to make adjustment to the bass. 

Thanks!

Hi lightsyde,

You can either use the "Position" switch on the socket panel of the speakers for a basic bass adjustment ("Free" gives most bass, "Corner" gives the least) or you may find that the "Speakers" section of the Denon menu gives you the best range of bass adjustment.

Kind regards, Steve.

And here are some test tracks I used on my BL20s last weekend 🙂

Given the author you might even believe they are B&O friendly 😁

Geoff has also published in Spotify a playlist for stores to show off the best attributes of the BeoLab 20.

And other people have put their own lists together (as I did under Deezer):

How funny - last night my boyf and I watched a music video Nik & Jay recorded with Burhan. Didn’t notice the music...
