Well I've heard that many of the wives have problems with a single pair of RL's, so with three pairs you really are pushing your luck 😂

Neat idea with the installation, but I have to admit I'd feel more comfortable with a single pair up front myself... 😕 I'd probably throw the X25's out and reconsider the role of one RL pair... But if it sounds good like that, listen to them, and not me!

Nice system, can I have one of those Redlines? 😎

I drive my parents crazy with a pair of S-75's and a pair of S-60's 👍

I have had another pair of S-75's, though, but they took too much space for my (then new) Beogram 8002...

Yes three pairs may be pushing it, but in for a penny in for a pound 😁 lukily we have the space for them.

I forgot to mention there is also a Subwoofer hidden in the fireplace (not B&O). The sound from the setup is unbelievable ! I played a bit of Prodigy through it the other day. Now I think I have internal bleeding 😉 So its easy listening for a while till my organs heal 😂

I wasn't going to use the X25's, but they do help as the room is very long, so they widen things a bit.

The one thing I learned from it is how rubbish a lot of modern dance music really is. Things that sound fine through a set of cheapish speakers sound awful through the B&O's. Not because there is anything wrong with them (Far from it) but because you can hear every mixing cockup, duff note, Mismatched sample and the poor mastering 🙁

How to win wife approval for RL45's?

Easy, just install some RL140's for a week and she'll be begging for the return of the 45's.😕

My wife hates al my vintage B&O items,she claims "my" part off the livingroom looks like a 70s hifi store,she was very pleased when my  P30s came off the wall yesterday,what she dont know is that im only making room to wallmount a BC 1200 and BM 1200  and that that the P30s will be mounted on another wall to be used as rearspeakers in my surround system whit P45s as fronts,fortunatly shes on one of her expensive hairdressers apointments today ,so i know i will get away whit it😕

I am surprised that falling soot was also not a problem !!

We baby-sat some RedLines for a friend for 3 years - I loved them, but my wife did not.

I know I should be decommissioned/expelled/excommunicated from BeoWorld for doing this, but I did read out *SHOCK* some of this post to her, and she said a hairdo would not be enough, and that as a minimum it would require an expensive weekend away before she would agree to them coming back ...
