Speakers

Hi all I've just got a beocenter 7002 in white any idea of matching speakers ? 

I can think of several great options.

The BeoLab 2500 speakers with white frets.

BeoLab 4 speakers with white frets.

White BeoPlay S3 speakers.

There were white frets for the Beolab 4000 speakers, which would go nicely with silver speakers.

All of these except for the BeoPlay S3 speakers might need a little searching and patience for them to show up on eBay.

I seem to recall there being an adapter cable if the BeoCenter 7002 only uses passive speakers and does not have powerlink.

I think that the line-level adapter cable to which I was referring requires the RCA input on active speakers. So this would eliminate the BeoLab 2500 speakers.

For a nice passive speaker option, you might take a look at the BeoVox 3000. A beautiful, flat, on-wall speaker made by B&O.

Thanks so much really appreciate advice 

I'd stick to passive speakers for the classic equipment if I was you. The 7002 has a lovely amplifier section and sounds great. A nice pair of Beovox S45s will sound wonderful with this system.

With my father's 7002, there is a pair of S80. The sound is not that good because of too thin (and long) cables.

How thin are we talking? They'd have to be VERY thin to cause a degradation in sound quality. B&Os standard cables are pretty thin compared to some of the "audiofool" cables available today.

When the technicians installed this setup about 30 years ago, then proposed 2 sizes : thin and transparent or "normal B&O" and grey. All I remember is that at too high volume, the S80 security was activated. They said we have to choose between quality or aesthetic.

NB: they are about 10m long.
