Hi, just new here and to B&O...

Recently got BeoSystem that I'm working on bringing back to life ... It didn't come with speakers but I am now looking at a choice between RL45.2 and the recommendend ones, BeoVox s55.

Both of those need refoaming and some aesthetic work, but I just want to hear what you guys think about those speakers. It could be a no-brainer, looks like the s55 is the obvious way to go but something in me is being drowned to the Red lines ... anyone has an opinion?

Hi, and welcome to the forum. Sorry to throw in another option, but have you considered the Beovox S45.2? A great sounding speaker that would be a good match for your BeoSystem.

The redline 6000 speakers are much better than the 45.2 :)

Depends on your taste, I suppose.
Of the two I would grab the S45/S45.2

Else Beovox S80/S80.2 or MC120.2 all of which very good alround speakers.

Sorry, I wasn't talking about S 45.2.

I was refering on the rl 45 vs. rl 6000

Of the two, the S55 is the better in my opinion. Clear and detailed.
