Correct. While the engine is basically remains the same, so far each video product has received it's own revision of the engine board with small enhancements and modifications.

I've heard about a new beo4 to introduce the new avant.
The avant will have build-in speakers that slide out.

Moxxey - this is not about telling secrets about the new Avant!

This is about how/why/if there are different versions of the 'engine' used in the newer tv's.

Nothing new about that - it is just that too few facts about the differences in the versions are known.

I still don't get this secret launch business. It's not as if people are flocking to the shows knocking down the doors all struggling to get tickets from the bouncers on the door. Its a TV for goodness sake not the cure for cancer. A few titbits, clips and pictures should already be out there.

The dealers are duty bound not to say anything, but when you compare a Beovision release to the latest iPhone or Rolls Royce, they seem to go down a completely unique direction.

If anyone from Struer is interested or listening, AVForums.com are desperate to review a Beovision but always get knocked back by B&O. This is perceived as insecurity about the tech, and it's fair to say this leaves a certain amount of resentment about the brand on their site!

Well, you could also say the same thing about the BL20, also due for launch next week. No-one knows a thing.

I don't really get it, either. My dealer won't even tell me the UK price! I'm just assuming it will be around £6000.

I find it exciting  - just like before having sxx 😳

You've obviously never woken up to a woman with more facial hair than yourself

I agree with you Chris, I'm also a member on avforums and i would love for them to review a b&0 tv. I'm forever defending b&0 as some of the threads really dismiss the brand and only assume that there more style over substance which we all know isn't the case.

and once someone has an opinion the flock of others join the attack and really say some negative things. i for one have owned a lot of av over the years from different brands but there really is something special about b&0.

I think if they let more of there stuff be reviewed it would definitely work in there favour, as a wider audience of people would know how good there audio and visual products really are.

There was a thread the other day that i was rounded upon about this very subject. They complain they never get the chance to review a Beovision and that B&O actively stops them doing so!!!! I think they a re just upset they don't get an invite or response from Struer.

Forums like this need a day out in Denmark, it would do more for sales and the brand than all the trendy nights i see populated by folks who look like they couldn't give a toss about the brand. One decent review and you have got the attention of thousands of nerds ready to spend their money. Drives me mad.

av forums is a joke , i was banned there for sending a pm ! lol

another time i got an infraction for claining i had two amplifiers - !?!?!

total dump

as for the secrecy , it's hype , nothing wrong with that

apple have been doing this for years - hasn't hurt them has it ?

avforum is the biggest *** , i was banned to for nothing.
