A quick question, There has been releases of different colours of Beolab 3 over the years. Are there differences in terms of performances or built between each version? i.e. are the Red pairs different to a current black ones?

Thank you.

I have not heard of any differences between the different colours.

Quite sure the only difference between MKI and MKII is that the lens top was changed from aluminum to plastic.

I've never recognised an audible difference between any BeoLab 3's, from the first pairs released right up to the current models...

The sound is amazing for such a small speaker. It's so well engineered - a true B&O product.

Only difference is that some older grey models did not age well due to the paint formulations becoming "sticky" in some environments.  Other than that they all are great speakers.
