I'd go with whatever you thought displayed the better picture.
11-55 if NL is important to you.
BV7-55 if you want the very best audio/visual experience, but looks huge and a bit cumbersome.
BV11 -55 if you want a TV which looks like a work of art, but includes an excellent picture and reasonable sound.
The 7-55 is big. As opposed to being in a corner, it's now in a window. But my god it's worth it.If you are into watching movies and don't want or need the extra speakers the 11 will need, the Beolab 7-6 does it all, in spades. Factor in the fact you won't need supplementary speakers when looking at floor space. Would it really take up more space than an 11-55 with extra speakers?Built in Bluray player and picture quality on the Mark 2, is still the reference at which all other TVs should be measured against in my book.

Currently have a beovision 9 with beolab 1s but I will be upgrading the speakers to beolab 5 at the same time just can't decide between the 2 tvs 7-55 looks great value for money but the 11-55 looks so good. Login to view image
Keep the Beovision 9. You will be upset when looking at dark images in a dark room when the dynamic contrast kicks in. I'm no fan of plasma, but this is an area where it has a distinct advantage. Although the 11 will have a sharper picture.Do you live in the UK?
Keep the none and audition the 20's before you take the 5'sB
Difficult question. I was about to pull the trigger on the 7-55 when the 11-55 came out, and went for the latter. The ability to play with the settings (sound groups, colour temperature, etc) won me over. However i agree that the 7-55 PQ is a bit better, but the 11-55 is very close, specially when watching bluray. At the end of the day the 7-55 looks enormous and takes up a lot of space compared to the 11-55. Plus you would be buying a used TV that is out of production, compared to a new one that is being updated with new features on a regular basis, without the need for a technician. I have my 11-55 set up with BL1s and the sound is amazing. And since you will have BL5s soon, i think you would be very happy with the 11-55
Hopefully the OP know what NL means 🙂Basically, the question is (1) do you have existing B&O audio or (2) are you planning to expand beyond the BV ?11-55 if NL is important to you.
