For me is my beloved BL8000 ! 🙂

 

And whats is the worst ?

 

I don't have one ... 🙂

 

Actually bought from B&O - probably my Beogram 4004.

Worst - definitely the Serene.

Best - BeoVision 9. I love it in spadefuls - what a fantastic Television. Brilliant.

Worst - Serene Mobile.

Many people don't like serene ! Including me as well !

 

Lee, you using iPhone ?

 

For me, probably the BL9s. Best all-round speaker in the range. I've just replaced a pair of BL5s for BL9s and I think the sound might be better from the 9s. Why? They don't need calibrating. Set them to 'free standing' and they might out-perform calibrated BL5s (in a room where you have wooden flooring and old wooden windows).

Worst? Difficult one. Possibly the Beosound 3....only because it can't really be used as an alarm clock each day and it can't be controlled via a Beo4. So, useless for an office environment where I need to mute it swiftly.

Best: Beogram 8002

Worst: Beovox X35

Secondhand B&O. So far it works great!

 

My A8 headphones...use them every day. The only headphones that don't drive me crazy when I wear them 🙂

Don't have anything bad from B&O ...

By far the Beolab 9's which I acquired about a month ago is the best B&O product I have ever purchased.

The most disappointing was the Beosound 2.  I loved the design but as a Mac user, it has been a pain to use.  However the sound is very good.

Best: B&O bottle opener (though it was free) gets used most days :)

Worst: Mmm. Maybe my B&O soldier as he looks good, but doesn't really do anything!
