I 100% Agree with that statement Beolab 5 i feel is such an iconic futuristic ahead of it’s time piece of David Lewis design.

The BL 19 based on my experience needs to be placed in a corner behind your main speakers in most cases. From that perspective the BL 2 is more versatile and has more punchy bass (just my experience). Interestingly both the BL19 and BL11 have very strong resale value and are also IMHO not great subs (definitely not at their price points). The BL 5 and BL 6000 are still my favorite B&O speakers from a pure aesthetics perspective. One looks futuristic and stands out in a room, the other is pure simplicity and disappears. Just amazing design.
B&O in my life 😊:

Looks amazing. The TV looks bigger than 55 inches for some reason. For movies, can you still use the Eclipse speakers as a center speaker? Another option is to use both the BL5 and Eclipse speakers at the same time given how far away the BL5 are from the screen.

Agreed, I have tried several options and behind the main is the best. Playing with the gain and the location switch also changes the perception.

Hi Mr anders,
Congratulation for your BL5 and really nice home decoration.
I am in the process to replace my current setup (BL8K, BL4K, BL2) for a second hand BL5.
Which version did you take : MK1, MK2 or MK3 ?
What are the differences between them ?
Thank,

I have MK2. BUT in 2011 Keith Saunders says there is now different version. Only Software updates!!?
Hi, the main difference from MK1 and MK2/3 is the chassis and its electronics components.
Yes the difference between newwer version are software updates
