Whether it is the BL90s, or their smaller child coming later in 2017, or these final editions of the venerable BL5, or the punchy BL3, there seems to be an increase in the number of second life BL5's on the market (at least here in the states, if eBay is any indication). I wish I had room for them.

Completely agree with this. I have mine connected to my BV12-65. Great size, value and sound!

Yes, Carlito, we remember!

I was hoping for more elaborate information and specs, possibly even a price. I've learnt that there is both a polished aluminum and a black one now. !

From Graham's link it would seem that jn addition to the picture of the polished aluminium acoustic lens that you posted, there is also a black version of the lens.

I wonder about available cabinet colours.

Same specs, same price; the glossy disks is the only difference, and last order possible for any Beolab5 will be mid may before end of life.
