Beolab 8 Review

in BeoLab · Apr 15, 2026 13:34 GMT

I have 8s as rears with my Theatre. The control panel does light up on the 8s and is functional. You can select favorites and adjust volume etc on the Theatre from the 8s. I don’t believe there is any way to listen to mu…

Thanks! What do you mean an extension rather than a satellite?

Replace 4000s with 8s?

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 12, 2025 13:38 GMT

After moving speakers around and trying various combinations of speakers I have, I have settled on either my current 4000s as rears with Theatre and front 28s, or upgrading the 4000s to 8s. Would there be a noticeable im…

Any opinions as to how the 8s sound compared to BL1s or BL9s? Have been using either 1s or 9s as rears with my Theatre and 28s in front. Am thinking of getting a pair of 8s as rears.

Rear Speaker Opinions?

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 10, 2025 21:34 GMT

I have a Theatre with 28s in the front. Since getting the Theatre and 28s, I have used various speakers as rears…..I have used my 1s, 9s, and 4000s. The 1s provide the best overall sound, but don’t look great in the room…

WiSA vs Digital Powerlink

Layout of the room is not good for doing that.

WiSA vs Digital Powerlink

Thank you. As the 8s would be rears, I have no need or desire to use them separately. Just thinking of replacing the rear 9s with 8s to get the added height the 8s provide on the floor stands, get rid of the wiring for R…

WiSA vs Digital Powerlink

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 10, 2025 14:25 GMT

I have a Theatre with 28s in the front and 9s in the rear. I am thinking of replacing the 9s with 8s. I see the 8s, just as the 28s, can be connected by both WiSA and digital power link. Is one preferred over the other? …

Beoconnect Core with HDMI (e)ARC

in BeoConnect · Apr 5, 2024 21:01 GMT

Received my BCC today. Connected my 1s to it and am very happy with it. Have been able to play my BS3000 and BS5 through it via a converter. To my ears, the 1s sound better. The imaging is better and they now seem to dis…

Thanks! I will consider another converter. Today I connected the BS5 to line in on a Core. That does allow it to be distributed to all products, Mozart included. Of course can only control it in the room where it is loca…

What sort of control do you have the BS 5 with that option?

in BeoSound · Mar 28, 2024 17:18 GMT

Connecting the BeoSound 5 to the Line In on the converter works fine, with one exception. I can not join Mozart products, only older NL products. What makes it weird is I can join my BS3000 through the converter to Mozar…

Thanks! Your thoughts are just what I had come up with experimenting and looking at the manual. I am not connecting it by ML for two reasons. First, I have a Beosound 3000 connected by ML but it does not have the newer s…

What option setting is recommended for a BS5, that is not connected to MasterLink and has no speakers connected to it? Only use is the line out connection to a ML/NL converter? Thanks!

Theater + BL20s or BL50s?

in BeoSound · Mar 24, 2024 18:32 GMT

Had a typo in my reply. 9s as rears, not 20s. I did not feel like it was much of downgrade, if any at all, in my room. It reminded me of years ago when I had the 9s in front. Dealer brought me a pair of 5s to try. I was …

Theater + BL20s or BL50s?

in BeoSound · Mar 24, 2024 17:21 GMT

That is a hard question to answer. I had 50s connected to my BV7. I traded them in on 28s which are now connected to a Theatre. I found the 50s a bit large for my space visually. I also felt that I was not getting the fu…
