So you mean you would add two beolab 12-3 as rear channels as well?

You could of course but for rears in your place I would go 4000s others would differ.

I am putting up a similar  set up as you 10-40 and 12.3,

Why did you put the lenses to the bottom ? I find in 3 set ups so far that they sounded better in the reverse position.

Guess the fact that the painting goes in red is no conicident Wink

Thank you! Well, I decided to have the lenses in that position as I thought they were supposed to be at the height of the listerner's ears, aren't they? So you would go for the 4000s, I have never taken them into consideration...

Value for money, a hard speaker to beat.  They can be wall mounted and pointed any where. 

I only tried my 12.3s on Sunday ,lens top-lens bottom and top was clearly different in my room. I am waiting on the wall brackets to conclude that trial.

I did the same in a 12.2 set up for music only.

I would go for the BeoLab 12-2 for the rears.

Or the BeoLab 3.

Both have the acoustic lenses, and the design complement your 12-3.

Thanks mate.  I'm loving it.  I was having trouble setting it up with my dongle in the country, but then i realised I was putting in the wrong password, so no wonder it wasn't working.  All up and running fine. A lot more portable than the BS8 so i can lug it in the car easy.  Love the white, although I would have liked the natural leather strap instead of the black but never mind, it's great.

If you're able to add rear channels, why not, especially if you watch a lot of movies where surround sound is of benefit.  If you don't, then don't bother.  The 12's would also look good on your rear wall as there is a bit of furniture there, something simple will help maintain your current elegance.

Congrats on your new setup - excellent. Enjoy it.

Thank for sharing the pictures!

N.B. I like your LC2's - an art-object when placed that way.

Very nice to see that the cables are run inside the bracket in such a neat way.

This is the exact mounting I will use once I take the plunge and replace my BV10-40.

Thanks for excellent post.

I would consider adding BL3's in white as rear speakers. I'm using them as well as rear speakers and must say that they are quite convincing. Small, but beautiful.

Are you pleased with the Avant?

Dear forum members,

I’m  very impressed of the many positive reactions on the Avant photoserie in our home. To all of you: thank you so much.

In a relative short time we have gone from a 10/40, 11/46 to the Avant 55”. Isn’t it  strange one always want to bye a bigger screen with a more brilliant image. Now for us, the Avant will be the last one. Bigger [and many times more expensive!] will not fit into our living.

Are we satisfied? 

SD image is moderate, but good enough.
HD is magnificent.
Bly-ray is super.
4K? We have to wait for. But the items on You Tube are fine.
Sound, especially in combination with the 9 and 12, is excellent.

P.S. For them who want to wait for the next generation Avant will be disappointed  because B&O has decided not to add in HEVC codecs. Next update firmware will be HDMI 2.0 [according to a test in FlatpanelsHD].

Would it be possible to have a pic of the new with the speakers folded out - please?

Would make it easier to compare both.

Looks great. Congratulations.

And sitting down in standby mode the Avant IS shorter !

Like MM I would like to see how tall the Avant is when playing.

Also did you ever rotate / swivel the BV7 .... and will you miss that ?

Yup, traded in the BV7, it was a 6/7 year old MK3, so quite old, but I got a reasonable enough price....

And yup, I will sorely miss the rotation of the BV7, the only flaw (so-far)...

Hilarious, only in this forum would something like this be said! 

Lovely setup! The Avant really does go well (I'd say if not BETTER) with the classic B&O Designs of Lewis (BL8K and BL2) Lovely! Someone should photoshop the new avant into the first gen avant brochures. It'd likely look just as classic!
