Hello,

I just sold my Beovision 7-40 screen and was wondering if I could re-use the floor stand to hang a non-BO tv set? I think there's a need for a kind of VESA adaptor to put on the B&O stand but I have not yet been able to find out anything suitable (in spite of googling intensively for a few hours).

STBBrackets seems to provide somehow different things (to put Playstation or set-top boxes on the BO tv), I will nevertheless ask them.

Does anyone has a brilliant idea?

NB not even talking of using the motor or the Beolab 7.4...

Thanks for your feedback,
-- Olivier

Sorry I am not offering an answer rather I'd like to know as well. In theory it should be an adapter plate of some sort to standard VESA.

STB brackets are probably your best case.

Leogonewild (now  ___) did have one: 
Flash your B&O - new thread! -

I'm quite sure any reasonably sized TV is today lighter than your old BV-40 with AR glass.
So find a Vesa mount, drill some holes, add some screws and it should be fine and nice to see.

For the motor control, as far as i know, lot of people did try but nobody succeed so far, be it with electronic stuff or raspberry thingy or voodoo sorcery.
But I have to say that my experience is that the motor stand is part of the B&O magic we all want to experience but is really useful in very rare situations.

Out of interest stb also have a YouTube channel where they confirm it is manual. But it’s still good to watch to see how it will look

I’m pretty handy with electronics... there’s some other comments here too and I was able to isolate some of the pins which I thought controlled the stand left and right, but had troubles then to work out a cable solution and controlling via the Beo4 remote.  Also didn’t want to irreversibly dismantle the stand and wiring 🙄

I reckon it’s doable but just needs someone with a really strong elec background and lots of time to put their heads together...

I have seen this on the net no idea about the price or product looks similar style to B&O🤭.
