Beolab 50 on wheels?

6 replies

The Beolab 50's are quite big as we all know and the best sound quality can be achieved if they have a bit of breathing space on the back. Unfortunately my room is not extremely big and on normal use they are fine just almost against the back wall.

But sometimes I want to go all the way and have them about a meter to the front.

They are extremely heavy and I was wondering if I could place a small set of wheels underneath so I can roll them forward. But what will be the impact on the quality of sound if I have these wheel underneath? 

 

Hi Peter,

I know that Beolab 90 has a moving trolley, which can be purchased from your dealer to allow those speakers to be easily moved as required - I wonder if there is something similar for Beolab 50?

Kind regards, Steve.

Great suggestion, thanks Steve.

I was not aware of their existence and will ask B&O directly. My dealer was already struggling to find the calibration microphone for the 50's ;-)

A cracking set of results. I would urge anyone to read the “presentation” on the investor website (assuming one is not inclined to read the full accounts).

The transition to a monobrand is explained pretty clearly as are the aims and financial targets of the business.

Difficult to find any negatives although I’m confident sone will try😕

Oops. Not had any beer. Maybe that’s the problem.
