Beovision 10-40/10-46

3 replies

Hello all!

Tried to search but couldn´t find what I´m looking for.. Today I have a BV 8-32 and a old BV5-42. Very happy with both of them in relation to how I use them! :)

Thinking of buying a used BV10-40 or maybe 10-46. Are there any differences in sound quality between these two?

Image quality will be better compared to my old TV´s of course but what about sound quality/performance?Has any one experience the difference between these models BV8, BV5 and BV10? I will not use extra speakers.. 

I know there are different MK1 verisons of the BV10, mainly different amount of HDMI as I read..?! (I will only use ATV4K thou.)

Any thing special to look up when buying a used BV10? Should I avoid any Mk-version or Serial no regarding quality?

Is it possible by the menu system to see how many hours running time the TV has? 

Any input would be appreciated! 

Thanks!

If you can increase the budget I would recommend to look for a Beovision 11 instead.

BV10 are really old now so it is a risk with buying such old tech especially when it comes to the panel.

Anyway, the bigger BV10 give a fuller sound since it has a bigger volume for the speakers. I replaced my BV8-32 with a BV10-40 and was very happy.

Since 7 years I now have a BV11-46 and never regretted that.

Hi!

 

Thanks for your input! I will consider BV11, close to where I live there´s mainly BV10 for sale thou. The BV10/11 will not be our main TV either, therefore I considered BV10 but I have read about bad panels on the BV10 unfortunately.. But thanks anyway! :)
