Yes I upgraded a month ago but I'm not sure if the room got any better. The BV 7-55 is a bit big for my taste.

I even tried a black fret to make the speaker "invisible".

Which one do you prefer, silver or black fret?

Thank you!🙂

I'm the 3rd owner. Mid '80s. Renovated by Dillen. He also supplied the stands. I also have Beovox S120 in white. Dillen did those too. Below S120 in the back. It's an old picture and I got alot more space these days.

 Great thread otherwise. Keep it comming.

Well congratulations! I think I prefer the black fret, due to the fact I have nearly become tired of always seeing the silver ones. I honestly have never seen one in black before! Additionally, the black fret seems to match the frets on the rest of you're labs in a way.

Okay, off to class now, be back soon!🤒

Black is the best one by far.......................:-)

John,
I don't know if it's just the way you decorate but your photos
always have a nice warm glow to them.
Very nice !  🤒

PS: Where is the Beogram tonearm ?
EDIT: I'll answer that myself... Looks like the photo was taken with a looong shutter time.
Both the 33 and 45 RPM lights are lit proving that the tonearm
was travelling the whole trip back and forth as the photo was taken.  😂
Also a wonderful photo !
