Very nice with those white BL12-3's paolomariano.

You could add a white Beolab 11 for a perfect sound. This addition will make your system complete!

Enjoy your setup!

P.s. How did you hide all those cables? Very neat!

And who or what is mr. Kuzma and who is you?Huh?

LOL, he did hide a link to Kuzma's site under the letter "K" in the first post, so you did not need to do any research Smile

Yes a terrific set-up ... looks like a B&O catalogue where there are never any cables ... but in your case it is a working system Big Smile ... looks simply fabulous ... you must be very pleased with the results.

I've noticed the "K" immediately Ed but did more research and found a link on Youtube of how these amazing turntables are made.

Btw, did you ever heard about that brand or am I the only one here? Stick out tongue

Paolo, looks absolutely beautiful. I love the bl12s. I was gonna get them when I got my 3s but I didn't because there was no option to have them on a stand. 2 weeks later and now they do lol

Thank you!!

This is really very nice of you!!

You know what? They sound even better than they look... :)

I am really really satisfied with them. I have no idea how they succeed in designing every time such "magic" products. What impressed me more about them is how low they can go. My expectations were really high and they just didn't disappoint me, which is great!

Hey Paolo, your apartment is PERFECT!!!

I remember when you bought the BV10. You had a BS8 too!  Did you buy that beautiful sofa that you wanted?

Do you mean 12-2?

Yeah, that could be a good solution... Do you think that the acoustic lenses of the rear speakers are supposed to be at the same height of those of the front ones? In that case I should have them installed upside down...

Great idea. The BeoLab 12's sound much better than the BL 6000.
I bought a set of BL 6000's some years ago - but I was disappointed with the sound. I swapped them for a pair of BL 4000 which sounds much better. And the 12's are even better...Cool

Yes I mean the 12-2's. I think you can install them up or down. When I auditioned them I loved the sound. I would have got them over the BL3s but there was no stand for them and I don't want to hard install them on the wall (at this stage)

Congrats on a great setup.

Cheers

They have stands now or at least they are on their way:

It took hours to install everything and they are actually so slim that it is very difficult to adjust the position of the cables so that they do not get in touch with the rear of the speakers causing vibrations. And obviously, at the same time, you need to prevent cables from being viewable when the speakers are mounted.

I really would not recommend doing that on your own unless you are very skilled at it. But, at the same time, I could not imagine the BL12s on a stand. They are simply thought to hang on a wall...

Been playing around with that classic 'needle shot' with my BG3404 and MMC 10E for little bit. The best I can do at the moment with an iPhone.

Very nice shot of your BG Evan. I like your musicchoice! It gave me inspiration to play some same (vinyl) records as you did again.

Last add on vinyl: Adele 19 and Muse.

Thank you! I spent some time trying to get that pic - not easy with an iPhone. 

I have to admit, records are growing on me! I spent a lot of time that day listening to vinyl. 

I always try to post meaningful and real music that I think others can appreciate. I know some of them are modern, electronic, and some R&B but I post it because its good. Glad to hear someone is picking up on it!

Yes - thumbs up

Excellent turntable pic! Doubly impressive from an iPhone as opposed to a camera that gives you more control, you must have the patience of Job. 

I should try something similar with my Beogram 3000/MMC2 if I ever find it and my camera. I just moved and am up to my eyeballs in boxes. 

I always love turntable pictures.

Indeed, it did take some patience! 

I recently broke my point-and-shoot digital camera and have been at the mercy of my iPhone camera since. My only other alternative would be to move to my film SLR! Laughing

Honestly, that isn't too bad, I've gotten pretty decent results with 35mm film lately.
