    Dear B&O enthusiasts, I was wondering, what would be a good possible set-up for computer-desktop use? Speaker(s) would be standing on my desk, near my computer screen. I currently use a ‘retro’ set of Bowers & Wilkins MMM1, I love these because of their design, minimal size, and stereo sound. Are there any B&O users that have experience with a desktop set-up of B&O products, for use with a computer? Ps I use a Macini M4.

    Best : connect a Beosound core digitally to the Mac and add a pair of bl3.
    Best of the best : a pair of BL8
    Cheap : pair of A1 connected in BT (my solution at the office)
    No stereo : a beosound Level on the desk (my solution for the home office, and the level goes to the pool in summer days off!)

    BL4 directly plugged on the motherboard. Good enough for computer, and no need to add another devices to use them via line-in.

    Why not just stick to your current setup – it seems that you like it so far.

    If anything…then a set of the BL8’s – that would be a clean setup. But that is a lot of money for a desktop solution.

     

    P.S.

    I use a set of passive AudioEngine desktop speakers driven by a small amp which is analog connected to a USB-DAC on my Mac Mini.

    But I have space to hide the clutter away….which not everybody has on his desk.
    Works well for me – it does not have to be B&O speakers for my limited use of desktop computing.

    A nice set of B&O CX-100’s with a small sub is heavenly…

    Interesting – I did have BL3s for a while – used a Beomaster 7000 below the computer – didn’t really like them – never felt as if they sounded integrated – like two speakers – probably because too close. Went to CX100s which were better for me. Getting old so although CX100s are still there, no longer connected as gave away the receiver!
