I know I may be subjectively biaised in thinking that the Beolab 4500 is probably the most beautiful B&O speaker ever built, but  I am sure that there are many more candidates out there. Am I right?

I love the Beolab 4500, but my favorites are the Beolab 8000... (I do own both ;-)

I think we're all subjective when it comes to beauty! I think my MS150s are beautiful (especially when they've got their clothes off!😁) but I know others have said they're no oil painting (SWMBO and a high profile Beoworld moderator included...) 

I think most people would agree that the Beolab 4000s has a certain je ne sais quoi about them...

Cheers

I would agree, i think for looks the 4000 is a beautiful speaker!

The BeoLab 4000s have always struck me as truly beautiful speakers, but my personal faves in terms of sheer looks have always been Red Lines. I have no idea why, but they just speak to me.

Trip, just out of interest, how do the 4000s perform in your opinion? Compared to the BL3s? I'm in the market for some new speakers and would like some compact bookshelf speakers.
