Any tips for a new Avant 55 owner?

Hej Frederik

I had the Avant 55 1st gen for several years and have always been fond of that tv.

I changed to a Theatre/LG combo because the video engine died a second time….and because I wanted to experience the new audio options here at home.

I can not recall that I did anything other than using film mode (probably right from the start, never changed anything there).

As for ‘dynamic control kicking in’ etc – this did not seem to have been an issue during that time.
Could it be that you have already ‘been spoiled’ with having the OLED screen for a while ??
Maybe the change in the quality of the source material over the years does something.

I enjoyed the Avant – but the LG (with the right settings) is better.
Somehow I – and definitely my wife – miss the Beo4/navi.

Hi MM

Thank you for your reply. That video engine is surely a major issue. Actually the engine died in the hands of the techniscian as he set up the screen. Therefor they chanced both the panel and the engine. Great service from B&O! Very happy that I got 2 years of warranty from my dealer on those new parts.

I watched “Pig” last night and I really enjoyed the picture quality! Just some small instances of dynamic contrast being a little too agressive. But surely more controlled than on the BeoVision 11 that I also have had at one time.

Best regards,
