It's all about the price: http://fansonline.net/middlesbrough/mb/view.php?id=2805371

A typical British conversation about choosing a new TV. It's all about the price (generally speaking ;)

I dare one of you to try and convince them they need a B&O.

What would a competitor's model that is comparable to a BV10-40 cost? And by comparable model I mean a TV that is 40 inches, has built in speakers with similar sound quality to the BV10, has a built in surround sound processor with connections for the speakers, and a motorized stand? I ask because I am unaware of which manufacturers offer those features in a TV so I can not compare the prices.

I am waiting to see this TV which was recently announced.  The 60 inch will be about $6000 USD

Thanks for the link!

We have had the "are the TV's worth the asking price" argument many times, some getting quite heated at times - I believe certain folk stopped frequenting the forum because of the barracking they took for questioning the price of TV's. Its seems the time has arrived when the company has finally acknowledged there is no future in charging ever-escalating prices in a market swamped with ever increasing performance and features combined with falling prices.

I wish them every success with the new strategy, it surely holds more promise than continuing down the same old cul-de-sac.

I'd just like to see the real successor to the Avant that we've all been promised for so long.

 

Any info ??

Well a plan is better than none I guess.

I'm not going to hold my breathe on pricing, and rather than joining in the bagging session, I'll sit here and navel gaze until some new products come along! 😎

The new affordable line will be great when the "beo virus" attack and you just have the extreme need to buy something B&O 😁 (even if you don't need it). I think some of Beoworlders are very familiar with the "dissease".

I love this thread :D

Hopefully at the dealer conference in September. Does anyone know the date of this conference?

I'm not sure when it is in Europe but it's in 3 weeks here in the US.
