Thanks to ALL the posters here (and also the posters in the "Flash your B&O" thread of course) !

This is certainly the best advertisement I can imagine for the BS Shape and for Bang & Olufsen.

👍👍👍

I’ve recently downsized to an apartment and can’t fit all my beo things in but desperately trying to fit a beosound shape in here from the photos in this thread. Keep them coming. Really enjoying how versatile the shape is in fitting in very different interior settings

It’s a great product and so versatile. I think it’s as important to B&O as the BeoSystem 2500 was around Breakpoint for the company.

Hi Opman

Thank you very much for all those pictures. Very inspiring 😁

I was wondering if you know whether the Beosound Shape can be installed as ceiling speakers?

I’m thinking of making cloud shapes for Dolby Atmos.

We recently installed a system on an angled ceiling, please note that it’s not recommended to fit the amplifiers horizontally, they need to be fitted vertically for heat dispersion.

As you’ll see the three amps are in the cluster of 4 units with the BS Core in this instance.

Thanks w5bno123

Someone else mentioned that. Looks like I’ll need to follow your approach and attached the amps on the walls. Will need some thought but sounds like the speakers can be installed horizontally in my cloud Shape formation 😁

We installed a smaller alternative BeoSound Shape at our showroom yesterday. This 9 tile arrangement is known as Downtown. It sounds great and it takes up no space at all. We even installed an Alexa Dot with the BS Core to provide that extra flexibility.

Hi Stuart and thanks for the picture 🤒

According to your experience, which form sounds best?

Is the support wall material very important?
