Beolab 5, by far. 

 

Beo 4 - (almost) perfect remote!
(if you could program it without IR trans, Lintronic etc. it would be THE PERFECT REMOTE)

I changed music systems very often, but always kept the Beo 4

Beo 4 fantastic to use,without even looking at it,unlike beo5/6

Beolab 3 for there size and placement options,fantastic sound,also unique looking.

Beovision 7-55 for its allround ability as a complete package,sound,picture,quality,connections.

Playmaker for what it does,not how it looks,and saves buying a seperate dac and ae.

Agreed Beo4, and for the short foreseeable future the Beovision 7-55.

BEO4

For me, the best product that B&O has produced is the BL3s. Having owned the BL5s, BL9s and BL3s, amongst other B&O speakers, I've been the most impressed with the BL3s, considering their size, design and flexibility. BL5s are superb, sure, but only in a specific environment. The BL3s are more flexible and universal.

I don't know if a TV can be regarded as the best product as it's outdated so quickly. I've owned my BL3s since 2006 and never looked back. They are as good now as they were then. And should be in 5 years. Buy a BV11 now, and sure it's great, but can I say the same in two years? Not so sure.

In the current line-up I would only buy Beolab 3, 5 and 9 and the Beo4. I quite like the Beovision 11, but forking out € 6k for a 40'' TV that I will only use a few hours a week at best and that will be obsolete in a few years is not going to happen.

Beo 4 does what it says on the box!!!!

To me, the Beolab 5 stands out of all the B&O products...

Unique design, exceptional performance, a pleasure to own and a pleasure to listen to...

I'd always buy them again...
