I use a pair of S 75 in the Living Room, with a Beocenter 8500, and in another Room a pair of S 55 with a Beomaster 1100.

Best regards

Hi and happy Xmas!

All my B&O is vintage.

I use Beolab 6000s with the TV. Perfect.

My dance practice and everyday casual music listening speakers are M70, excellent speakers, fed by a Beomaster 4400 receiver and Beogram 4000 turntable.

The 1967 Beolab system has the correct Beovox 5000s and Cubes, plus central Beovox 4000.

The Beomaster 8000 feeds a pair of MC120-2, with S45-2 as rear speakers.

And then, the A9 in the music practice room (drums and bass). Its sheer power capabilities is ideal.

I also use non-B&O speakers, Quad ESL and Cabasse Galion 4.

Merry Christmas everyone - Chartz - how do the Quads compare with the MC120-2s? I would love a pair of ESL57s to go with Quad33/303 combo (Beogram 1203 for vinyl and playmaker for streaming)

 

Happy Christmas Beofans!

as Stereomensch said, I use Penta 3s in my workshop, along with Beolab 3000 as rear speakers. In my bedroom I have a pair of Emerges, which are linked to the Beosystem 3500 in my living room.

The living room speakers are currently non-B&O, thy are heavily modified Dali Oberon 5 linked to the 3500 system, while I decide which Beolab or Beovox speakers should replace them...

Kind regards Steve

Opinions on the M100’s currently on the devilbay please? Price is too high isn’t it at £895 ?

Would they be a big leap up from my M75’s which knocked my Atc’s off top spot .

One of my ‘speaker/listening options’….
The BS8 is nowadays just the speaker for an Essence MK2.

Here joined in to what plays in the livingroom.

I paid £600 for my M100-2s but I then had to have one of the filler drivers repaired and I recapped them - I've had more listening pleasure from them than other B&O speakers I've owned - but I probably did pay too much, however, I had to have them and something is only worth what someone is prepared to pay

I agree in that something is only worth what you’re willing to pay to have the pleasure of it , £900 is a bit much I think though , plus mine have the gorgeous rosewood finish whereas the ones for sale don’t.

Yes, mine have the same finish as the ones for sale - I was slightly disappointed as I was hoping for the full-on rosewood finish. not sure if they are all like that - also I wonder if the step up from M75 to M100 would be that great? - I think some of it will depend on the size of your listening room, how loud you can play them and what you are using to drive them. Mine sound awesome when they are on loud and fill the house with my music but most of the time they are on fairly low in my music room which isn't that big and I am sat very close to them. Another thing, I noticed that the seller said they are easy to drive - I have to say from experience they are not that easy to drive to make them sound their best, I tend to experiment with different amps and configurations - but those are just my thoughts - ideally you would get a chance to listen to them first. I don't know if others have compared M75 with M100's?

Thanks for your input mate , well he’s not sold them at £895 so perhaps he’ll take an offer, trouble is my mrs won’t like the finish.
