Hi i'm looking for new B&O l


Generaly I'm listening to music through in ear (currently Noble K10) I love the K10 sound sign which it Clear, seperate, great soundtage, the Treble and the mid is awesome, the vocal is balance or a little bit forward...the bass it enough but not too much. The bass is not overlap the mid which make the sound more relax... And I can enjoy for longtime


So with that sound sign I love should I go with the M5 or the Beolit 20? Many thanks


Most of the time I listen at home so I won't care too much about design, portable, connection... Just sound sign and sound quality !

If soundstage is important, then I'm not sure if either of those choices will fit.  Of the two, I believe the M5 has a better soundstage given its speaker configuration, but no single point system is going to rival the soundstage found with headphones.

EDIT:  Sorry, I would delete this post if I could.  After making this post, I realized that the Beolit 20 is a redesign and also has 3 full-range drivers (M5 has 3 tweeters) so I don't know what I'm talking about with respect to these products, except for neither of them are going to give you the soundstage of headphones.  Then again, you can stereo pair a Beolit 20 so maybe you could eventually buy 2 and get a nice stereo soundstage.

The Beolit 20 is worth every penny, and is also a mobile device thanks to its battery. And you can now pair them.

Things are usually pretty quiet around here in August.  Maybe postings will pick up shortly.
