Beolab 11 experience
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 12, 2011 20:48I have the combination BL3s + BL11 for about 3 months. The day I installed the BL11 (after some 3 years with the BL3S by themselves) my first reaction was of disappointment. I notice some difference but not much. The fac…
bl9 vs bl3+bl11
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 25, 2011 19:28Alex, I am driving them with a Quad 99 CDP, which is a cd player that also works as a preamp. I use it to listen do CDs and Apple lossless files through an IPOD and a Wadia 170i. This set up sounds great with the BL3s bu…
bl9 vs bl3+bl11
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 24, 2011 13:35Thanks. That is exactly the type of comment I was looking for. My problem is that I have the BL3s and the BL11 would fit in the room perfectly. On the other hand, if I go all the way to the BL9s I will have to rearrange …
bl9 vs bl3+bl11
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 23, 2011 17:58Has anyone been able to compare for stereo listening a pair of bl9s to a pair of bl3s plus a bl11? Although I like the bass of the bl3s, I believe it lacks a bit of presence to make the sound more natural. Would a bl11 m…

BL3 + BL11

Beolab 3 vs Anthony Gallo's Strada speakers
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 11, 2010 11:06When I started this thread I had only a very straight forward question in mind: how do the Stradas sound as compared to the BL3s. Both makers claim that the placement of these speakers in a room is not critical for their…

Beolab 3 vs Anthony Gallo's Strada speakers
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 9, 2010 10:54It is interesting to see how people complain about how the hi-fi crowd treats B&O and do exactly the same when asked about some other equipment. I am super happy with my BL3s (actually am listening to them now...), but t…
Beolab 3 vs Anthony Gallo's Strada speakers
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 8, 2010 21:38Has anyone listed to both B&O's Beolab 3 and Anthony Gallo's Strada speakers? The BL3 and the Stradas have both uncommon designs and both companies claim that the design if their speakers makes positioning them in a room…
