Thank you for taking the time to take pictures and post them of your install. I absolutely love looking at photos of installs from the truck to the home. I've seen youtube footage of what it takes for the BL90s to be installed, i.e. the special cart, harnesses, handles, etc. Amazing that B&O thinks these things through.

Congratulations!

Can you post a picture of your "listening"  position?

Looks very good, hope it sounds good too. Can I come for a listen 😁.

Install team look very professional, who are they?

Enjoy your purchase, good music is the best thing for the soul, period.

Well done - enjoy !

Dear Puncher,

The listening position is the mirror image of the last photo I posted.

The same couch on the opposite side of the room and instead of patio doors a wall.

When the Beogram CD7000 arrives, I will post photo of the listening position with the Beogram CD7000 and 7000 record player in the background.

I still need to tidy up and hide cables under the underfloor conduits.

I thought that it might be the couch in the house across the road. 

Congratulations on what should be a great system!

Wonderful stuff STY.

You have clearly done so much research over the last few years it is great to see the BL90s finally in your home. I hope you have many years of pleasurable listening.

Please do keep us updated with your thoughts them as you live with them.

Nice pic with the 2 glasses of fizz!

I was thinking of doing a short write-up of my journey starting with why I moved on from BL5 and what I looked into and auditioned in the intervening years. The hope is that the article will help those wavering on whether to save up for a new/used pair and I'd like to post in hifi forums to increase exposure of B&O and help those that want a phenomenal audio system without massive monkey coffins, complexity of room EQ, racks full of black boxes wired in silver and coated in bling and wiring that costs four figure. There is another way, the enlightened B&O way...

Hi seethroughyou,

Thanks for posting the pics of your install, that is superb to see everything going into place.  I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the sound of Beolab 90 compared to Beolab 5 as an owner, once you have got used to the sound of the new speakers.

Your insight will be valuable, as those of us who can only listen to the speakers briefly in store tend to just get a quick snapshot of the differences, rather than the full picture.

PS. Nice looking cable in the second picture! 😁

Kind regards, Steve.
