With a memory fairly typical of a guy my age, I am sure I have posted this question at least once, if not twice. None the less, if the "deal" didn't work out, the responses tend to get dismissed, and "lost in time."

My real goal is a pair of either M100 speakers or better still MS150's however neither come up for sale often and shipping is prohibitively expensive.

But last night I spotted what appear to be very nice M75 speakers at a reasonable price.

I assume that the over-all sound quality is very similar to S75 speakers and if someone can either confirm this or explain the differences, I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks!

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

I haven't heard the M70 or M75 but I do have the M100.2 and S75 Beovox's. From what other Beoworld M70 and M75 owners report on them I think you can't go wrong by getting them...especially if the price is good and they have the stands.

Regards,
John

Different ball park - better controlled bass compared to S75s. The phase link unit suffers from foam rot and if not done, the capacitors will need changing. I kept M100s over MS150s. Buy them.

I have a pair of immaculate M75's, reformed and capacitor kit fitted. The highs and mids are exquisite, cannot fault. Gorgeous warm sounding speaker. Only issue if want to get really picky, is the bass isn't as perfect as the highs and mids. I guess that's what the M100 was designed for.  But the bass issue is really splitting hairs and only noticeable on passages of music you know should be slightly bassier.

Hi John,

Thank you for the recommendation, I will take a look next weekend.

Supposedly the cosmetic condition is near flawless, the speakers come with cables, and stands..... and for $200.

IF these speakers look as good as the sellers says they are, I AM buying them.

As always, I really appreciate your advice!

Tiny criticism notwithstanding, your comments only make me want to buy these speakers all the MORE. Thank you!

Hello Peter,

Always GOOD to hear from you. A "Buy them" from you is quite a powerful enticement for me as I highly value your opinion.

I remember with considerable fondness your comment on S75 speakers, "They can make a lot of noise." Well sir, that they can as well as beautiful music.

What you are telling me is the M75 speaker is better than the S75 speaker..... case closed. As long as the seller was honest about the cosmetic condition, I will buy these speakers a week from today.

I know I need to have the woofers refoamed and if I need help with the phase link and caps I hope you and Martin will be here to guide me through that.

But first, I gotta nap them.

My sincere thanks to all for your comments and encouragement. 😁

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

That is a great buy for sure if they are as advertised (and I hope they are). We'll wait for the pictures.

John

Hello John,

If these M75 speakers are "as advertised" they will be a fantastic find. Photos WILL follow, I promise.

I asked all "the right" questions based on a friend's advice who is in the car business. (I don't advocate their tactics, but am ready to "learn" from them.)

So we'll see.

Thanks for your interest and your help! 🤒

Jeff
