Beolab 8000 + beolab 11?
No - a BeoLab 11 will make little difference. The 11 is much more suited to BeoLab 4, 4000 and 6000's.
Get a BeoLab 2 and you'll be much happier, I promise. 🙂

The Beolab 2 was so powerful my doors were coming off their hinges. Get one.🤒
Hi lee
Maybe you are the best person to ask, what is your opinion on beolab 3 with beolab 11 or beolab 2? Which combo is better? I mainly use speakers for music and occasionally for music, and I just have one pair of beolab 3 now, maybe will upgrade to 5.1 set up later. Btw, I will connect speakers directly to an oppo 105 player, so not much sound setting available. And my room size is about 50m2
Many thanks
I see most of you recommend a BL2 instead of a BL11 to go with the BL8000's, even for music. I have read elsewhere on the forum that the BL2 is a bit slow, and too much "boom-boom" to be a good companion for music.
Any feedback from Forum: should I go for BL11 or BL2?

BL2 hands down in my opinion.
Beolab 11 works great with BL 3s. It helps to make a fuller sound and frees up the 3s to work on mediums and highs.
I own BL8000... the BL11 was my best addition in the recent years... For music it adds a lot more depth to my music... and (for my opinion) also to movies.. But since I'm living in an appartement a BL11 is sufficient.
I have tried a BL2 in the past (before buying a BL11)... also no complaintes... but the neighbors were not that keen on it.

Hi jans,
here is another twist on that subject.
Subwoofers are great for movies in a 5.1-setup - a BL11 or a BL2 depending on the size of the room.
For music in a stereo-setup you should go for a "complete" speaker. With the BL5 or BL9 you have two of them build right into the speakers.
(For music) if you go for the 8000 and one of the subs set the 8000 up via the sub - not via sub-port on your tv.
Otherweise - If you are into tweeking of the sound, you might on the V1 use the subport AND do some experimenting with the soundsettings.
According to reports from V1/BV11 you could get superb results for different listening-situations after some tweeking.
