Can we say the beolab 9 is second best beolab in old beolab?

Do you all agree, among the beolab 3, beolab 8000, beolab 5, and beolab 9 these old beolab, can I say the Beolab 9 is ranked in 2nd place - in terms of speaker' s perfornmance, not the shape or style?

What is your thought?

by perfornmance, I mean the sound quality. I think beolab 5 should be definitely the No 1. 

If you can only have 2 speakers and no sub, then i would say yes. As a combo i like the bl1’s with a sub better personally of the old b&o range especially if you take styling and such in to account. The bl9’s are a bit low for my taste and or furniture but they do sound amazing for the size!

I have considered upgrade my BL9000 to BL 9, but eventually decided to wait a little longer for the BL5. The design of BL5 is simply amazing IMO.

I'd also say yes but I am tad biased that I own a pair of BL9

For a full range loudspeaker from B&O there's really only the BL9 and 5 of the 'old' series.

A yes from me too as a past owner of the BL9s. I considered all the options and chose the 9s. I loved (and still do) the style as well as the performance but a move to a new smaller home made little sense in keeping them. Simon.
