Hi All.
I am back after a long physical absence, although in spirit I have been here.
Being a Jacob Jensen fan, I have taken another step towards modernity by purchasing a Beovison 10-32 and Beolab 12-3. My query is how should these new purchases be placed and connected to my existing B&O? Currently, the Beosystem 7000 and MX-7000 is placed against the common wall separating the living room and bedroom. On the opposite wall facing the 7000 are the Beolab 4500 speakers. The BV 6-26 is in the bedroom, soon to be replaced by the BV 10 due to dying pixels on the BV 6 screen. Also in the bedroom is the Beocentre 2500, currently without any speakers.
Where should I place the BL 12-3 and BV 10?
- One option would be to wall mount them on the wall opposite to the BV 10, which will also be wall mounted [hopefully] and connect the Beocentre 2500 [and BV 10?] to the BL-12.
- Another option is to place both the BL 12-3 and the BV 10 on the same wall with the same connections as in Option 1 above.
- A third option is to replace the BL 4500 in the living room with the BL 12-3 and connect them to the Beosystem 7000. The BL 4500 would be moved to the bedroom and connected to the Beocentre 2500.
- A final option I am considering is to connect both pairs of speakers to the Beosystem 7000 [regardless of which room each set of speakers is placed] and sell the Beocentre 2500.
By the way, the flat is Hong Kong sized, meaning:
- the bedroom is approximately 8 feet by 12 feet with a bay window measuring approximately 2 feet deep by 5 feet wide.
- the living room is approximately 10 feet by 14 feet.
- ceiling height of the flat is approximately 15 feet
Any comments or advice would be most welcome.
Finally, is the Beolab 11 needed to complement what I already have or is it more a matter of personal choice?
