Hi,
I'm planning to upgrade my old TV to a Beovision 11.
The problem is that I'm using a Beolab 10 as center channel on my setup. Does anybody know if by using all speakers of the BL11 as center channel will I be downgrading the audio capabilities of my setup?
In other words, considering only the audio performance, as a centre channel, which one performs the best: BL10 or BV11?
Cheers, Dante.
PS: I don't know if it makes any difference, but consider a pair of BL5 as fronts.
On the contrary - the BV11 will be an upgrade!!!
And with 2 BL5's - that is a setup, that a lot would wish for ;-)

I have both and the speakers of the bv 11 are at least as good as the bl10 which I love and use with a 7 55 mk2 with bl5 at front.

I am not saying, that the BL10 is bad - not at all!
But it is the audioengine in the BV11, that makes the difference - much more flexibility and tuning possibilities.
Dante - what was/is your 'old tv'. You did not mention that.
And which size of the BV11 do you plan to buy?
My TV is a 55" plasma Panasonic which is almost 10 years old, so, the replacement would be the BV11 55" version.
If the BV11 sound performance were not as good as the BL10, then I would try to get a Beosystem 4, keep the BL10 and look for another TV (or even a projector...)
That might be a way to go, indeed!
If you are happy with how the sound is now, why not.
