Thanks for your nice review. Having ordered a BV10 I get a bit conserned about the sound of the set compared to my Avant. However I never use the Speaker 1 option, and my main consern is how the BV10 will work as a centre channel speaker in surround 5.1. Most 5.1 movies or music conserts use the centre channel to reproduce the voices and the other front speakers to music and effects. There are usually not much bass through the centre speaker, so I´m more conserned about the lack of mid range capabilities. Can it reproduce voices as clear and real as todays Avant... Of course it doesn´t have the same capabilities as the BL7-4, but that speaker costs more than half the price of the BV10.

My BV10 is going to be wall mounted. Hopefully no more delays. I wonder about the changes of the wall mount. We´ll see!

  it must look really incredible and with the soundtrack this film has it must feel like your at the cinema in your house i would like to hear your feedback thanks.

I think you will find voices are fine - very clear. I think it is better with Dolby Digital and DTS and less impressive with Dolby Pro-Logic. I suppose that is fair enough! I am sure you will like your BV10.

can i ask if you have any problems with clouding on the screen? its very clear on mine for example credits on the screen after a film or during programs with a dark shot! adjusting the contrast seems to help a little. cheers tom

Slight artefact with white letters on a black background but not really noticeable unless you go looking - the BV7-55 does something similar. Remain very impressed with the picture quality with all sources and coming around more to the sound now I have altered the speaker settings. I still think the centre speaker has too much weight in a surround set up but playing with it has toned this down a bit. 

Quite a bit slower to react when switched on compared to the Avant, which is not that quick itself. 

I got my BV10 on friday. After a weekend of mounting and listening I must say I am pleasently surprised with the sound. I have compared the sound with my Avant, and I think it matches the Avant without big problems. A little less bass, but the sound is overall more clear and real. I was a bit sceptic after Peters review, but I am very happy with the sound.

As far as the picture is conserned I am VERY surprised about the nice picture from the SD channels. Maybe due to the 200hz panel?? HD is of course very nice. But to test the full-HD panel we saw "The Dark Knight" on BD last night. What can I say; it is stunning! Lots and lots of details, black is black.

The BV10 is a wonderful TV. It has a very nice picture, good sound, and it is beautiful when off as well! Tha last thing is actually very important to me. Most of the time the TV is off, and it is still very nice to look at!

Hello 

Heard anything around BV 10-46 ???

When can we see it stores ?

Which remote did you get with your BV10,

Beo 4 or 5?

Mine came with a Beo5 but, as I already had one, I gave it back and was credited. I actually am still using a Beo4 though! Clearly getting set in my ways!! 😁

Peter.🙂 Sorry I have not replied earlier (Eastbourne etc)
Thank you so much for the time and effort you have put into this thread.
Although I will not be buying a BV10 in the near future, I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this.
I wonder if your center speakers are 'running in', and will continue to improve.
