I bought these nice Beovox 1600 speakers from Martin some month ago, they got a good cleaning and new caps.

Since I started on my BM 4400 (2-3 month), I have been listening to them every time I was in the workshop, they sound better than my S45 (83) connected to my BM 2400, they are hanging on the wall wide apart, of the wall they sound kind of lifeless, but on the wall its a totally different speaker.

If you ever find a pair, buy them.

These are type 6219, 2 way speaker, there are 3 way models, type 6228 and 6236, Beocentral and Beoworld do not have the 6219 in their product list.

You know what "bagger" in general (as seen on the 2nd pic) means in our language Soren? Don't dare to say.......😁

And don't  try to use a translation tool cause that's not what it is!

Bagger is a family name, and not included in Danish vocabulary, and if it exist as any kind of slang word its unknown to me, but I like to know if it is😁

Hopefully we're not talking about buggery on a family web site.

Why do you think that? Never thought about that to be honest! If you would like to know, it has the same meaning as "crap"!

Just checked what that word bu..... means but that's a bad word that not should be mentioned at all on a family web site?

My Danish vocabulary may be old as didn't live in that nice country for more than 40 years, but as languages changes it may be a bad word that I don't know of, but thats impossible I know them all 😁

The speakers look great Soren but the word "bagger" was just funny to read🙂

They not only look great, I have never imagined that a pair of 2 way small speakers could sound that good.

Now these will have to go with my BM 901, BG 1202, but then I'm missing the Reel to Reel Beocord 1200, but I'm sure you will bring me one when visiting in January, or just leave it in Houston, I got some friends there. 😁😁
