And PUC control, if or when it will work proper with cx/gx it will be a great buy compared to the Stage

It was AU$6450 for the 55”

That’s great - can finally see one !

Can you share :

1) mounting bracket - did you use the B&o mounting or custom ? 

2) did it work out of the box with the c9!? I’ve been reading about updates required for the Cx/GX and wondered if you had software issues getting the sound centre with the c9

Bracket is custom: cost 10 EUR. Will post details later.

Software: out of the box. Just need to install the BO app on the LG 

Ok so I've had this Eclipse SC + C9 setup for about 2 months now. Bought the SC from a dealer. The 55 inch SC is significantly cheaper than the 65 but hardware is the same, to me the 55 + 65 C9 works well visually.

Software wise, you only need to install the B&O app on the C9 from the LG store. From that point you can pair a BeoRemote and configure everything in the app or via your web browser (very convenient! as you can make changes live as you hear the sound from various sources...)

Hardware wise, you have 2 options:

1) Buy a wall bracket (fixed) for 800 EUR from B&O, buy a separate 3rd party wallmount for the C9.

2) Make your own bracket with stuff from the hardware store and use the original screen mounting brackets as anchor points, you will also need to buy a 3rd party wallmount for the C9.

In both cases, you will need some fine adjustments to get a "unified" look and hide your custom, ugly bracket behind the C9. Give yourself a chance with a rotating/height adjustable C9 mount so it's easier to adjust.

I would also like to note that from the looks of it, a 55 inch C9 would fit perfectly on the original screen mounting bracket (see pic). Which means that you can very likely use B&O brackets with a C9 if it's the same size as your Sound Center. Because I opted for a 65 C9 and a 55 Sound Center, it will not fit as there as plastic stoppers at the end of SoundCenter made to fit a 55.

Thanks for the pics @flatwhite - awesome to share this and it really helps my decision process.

In the first two pictures - those brackets that anchor into the TV and provide vertical screw holes (assuming to screw directly into the soundcentre if you had a LG C9 55 & soundcentre 55) - did you make those or are they the standard B&O supplied brackets with the sound centre?

Reason i ask is that I’ve got a LG CX 55 and if the base shape is similar enough to a LG C9 55 - i may be able to just use the brackets you show in the first two pictures to anchor the soundcentre to the screen - with no further additional screws and brackets ...

One last request - can you post a side view of your screen & soundcentre ? Depending on the depth of the soundcentre - I may not have enough depth between the LC CX (hanging off STBrackets attached to BV7 stand) and the BV7 stand its on.

Yes the brackets in the first pictures are supplied as part of the SC to attach the C7 and as you can see a C9 would also be able to attach there. Meaning you can very likely use standard mounting options if you have a C9 of the same size as the Soundcenter.

The depth of the SC is really up to you and how you assemble that bracket.

Hi 'flatwhite'. I just saw your very interesting postings about the combination of the SC and LG TV's. Unfortunately the link to the pictures is not working. Any reason for this? Could you provide these pictures on another platform (dropbox, google fotos etc.)? Thx.
