BeoGreg:Hello Peter and Svend fans, I plan to replace my wall mount broken Beosound 3 with the Beolit 15 I keep in the cupboard. I would like to wall mount it also, unfortunatly the Beosound 3 bracket is too short (and black). I'll try to find one or two alu "triangles" to fix on the wall. Any other ideas ? Do you think that the leather strap is strong enouth to stay permanently on the wall ? Cheers.

I would go for khaki or dark grey to contrast with the lite grey from the BeoLit 15. But this is a matter of taste.
BeoGreg:Brilliant guys. The Moment shelf is too expensive for the purpose I think and it's black (won't go with my yellow wall and gold Beolit), I like the Corniche have to see it in real maybe in white. Great I'm going shopping soon !

Too expensive?
Lack shelf £5 from IKEA
(hollow so acoustically may affect the speaker)
we tend to forget there is more to design than designing.
Corniches are quite cheap and having seen them in real life the design is excellent for such a small shelf. And even better if you put several on your wall.
But aren't you afraid that, on a shelf, the rear speaker of the Beolit 15 will be to close to the wall and that the BL15 will render a very boomy and muffled sound?

BeoGreg:But it could be only a storage option I can still move it around and put it back on the Corniche after listening. Big Corniche is around 90 € from what I found on the net.

Yes. If it is only storage the medium and maybe the small one seems to be big enough as well. They are even cheaper 55€ (small) and 70€ (medium).

The Beolit 15 has the woofer in "front", along with two "tweeters" on each front corner angled out, two passive radiators, one on each side, and one "tweeter" on the back. The woofer will be fine on a shelf.
But other than that nit, I agree, my experience with my 15 is that it needs some breathing room away from a wall or it gets bass heavy. Of course, you could use the equalizer in whatever you're using to drive it, to adjust it so it'd sound good on a wall I would think.
