Avant 55” – 9671 vs 8642

[ghsb]

Hello,

I’m presently looking at picking up an Avant 55” but I’m a bit confused with the versions and can’t find anything conclusive online. Does anyone know the difference between the 9671 and 8642? It looks like the 8642 was being manufactured around 2015 so I guess this is the Mk 1?

Any clarity would be appreciated!

As I understand…

9671 is the original ‘1st Gen’ with the 1st Gen panel.

8642 contains the later NG panel, but retains the 1st Gen internals.

Apparently they ran out of 1st Gen screens before they ran out of internals, so to get rid of the final stock of parts on the 1st Gen they put the ‘new’ panel into the 1st Gen but changed the type number.
