Hi all,

What center speaker should be preferred for a 5.1 setup with

BL17 (Rear)

BL18 (Front)

BL19 (Sub)

?

The idea is to use the above speakers wireless with transmitter 1 and an Marantz AV7704. 

Centre could be both wired and wireless.

Beolab 10 is not an option unfortunately due to the design is not approved by my partner.

I've found an Beolab 7.4 for 290€. 

What is the difference between a Beolab 7.4 and 7.6?

Any other options?

That is the exact setup I have using a Marantz AV receiver, only difference is that I use bL 15 built into the ceiling as rear speakers, and

I use a Definitive technology center speaker which has a built in sub woofer as well and it works marvelously 

Good luck

Beolab 7.4 is a center speaker and it is made specifically for that, especially when you have a full surround setup.

Beolab 7.6 is a stereospeaker. It can be used as a center speaker.

Go with the 7.4. It’s a great speaker Big Smile

Thanks, I ordered the 7.4.

Now I have the problem to find a good media cabinet/furniture. ConfusedSmile

Today I have a white cabinet 200/42/35cm (length/width/height) hanging 15cm from the floor.

Would like a similar setup with 2x media cabinets with approx 80/40/35cm measure and have the BL 7.4 in the middle.

Have not found any good media cabinets to use or adapt yet.

A samsung 75 inch tv. My idea is to have it like this, see illustration attached.

 

So far I cannot find find any cabinets that I can hang on the wall that are 

length: 80-90cm

Height: ~35cm

Depth: min 45 cm (inside).

I like the style of Clic. Smile

You could get a BV7-32 or 42 stand and mount the screen on it.

Here is a picture of my 55” Samsung on a stand.

You would get the tilt and turn function also, manually of course.

Clever and looks nice! My tv is already wall mounted though. It's the cabinets that I need to find to fit the reciever and other electronics Smile

Seems like I will have to build one myself. However I rather buy to save time.

I've decided for 2x white Clic 212 Large cabinets with light grey fabric doors. I will modify them inside for extra air flow and heat transfer. Will fit transmitter 1, av reciever, media computer, bluray player and PS4.
