Beolab - the volume is red. When you say they all suffer lag, have B&O acknowledge this in any way?  This goes back to my argument of 'fit for purpose'.

10% - our headboard is about 4-5 mertes away from the tv.

THanks, Rob

I hope B&O are reading this thread.I had a BV740 for a few days  and the picture [albeit SD] was unwatchable.The lag/judder when panning was a major issue.The tv went back.

It took quite a while for the refund on Virtuoso to go through.My dealer had to be chased on this!

Then I had problems with a warranty repair on a BS4 [a long story] when I eventually spoke to B&O UK to resolve the issue,I was given conflicting information.The engineers couldn't find the fault [err...  wouldn't switch on from standby,amongst other issues] and was arrogantly told that their engineers know best.By the way,they also damaged the BS4 when it was in for 'repair'.

After several months I got a replacement but was so pi55ed off that I sold my BnO system and wouldn't recommend them to anyone anymore.

Good luck resolving this issue.

I have just been reminded of another B&Hell fiasco we had to endure...

This was with another BS4 - the polished base had degraded,almost like galvanic corosion.

We were originally sent a tube of Autosol by the dealer to repolish it !!! Beggars belief.

After kicking up a fuss [should we even have to do that?]  the unit went back to the dealer who said that the base had been replaced by B&O....soon after the corosion came back in exactly the same place!! It had obviously only been buffed up!!! 

Eventually the base WAS replaced  and is fine now.But to be lied to is totally unacceptable.

SHAME ON YOU BANG & OLUFSEN. 

Beolab:

I don´t think anyone can answer why B&o haven´t put in a descent video engine /Scaler, besides the production section at B&o in Struer.

I'm sorry Beolab, but you're misleading people here. Yes, the MKII lacks the BS3. However, for some SD broadcasts, the MKII displays this content better than, say, the MKIII, which has to up-scale for the 1080p screen.

By telling users that the MKIII is the definitive answer, is absolutely incorrect. Watch ITV on any terrestrial channel, here in the UK, and you'll soon find that you'll see a number of issues - artifacts around football players, poor panning and so on. Indeed, watching some SD DVDs on the MKIII results in other issues. The picture looks more 'washed out' than it does on the MKII, due to upscaling.

Watching some SD channels (like ITV) on my 2006 BV8-26 is better and more enjoyable than the BV7-40 MKIII.

Oh😉

I hope that the new bv7 doesn't have all those picture problems🤔

moxxey

The MKIII is the best LCD B&o can offer today, but buy the BV4 instead if you don't like the lag artefact´s. I see the BV7-32  9 Hours every day, and we got the Bv7 40 MK III besides the BV7 32 so i now the bad artefact's´s in the Bv7-32 on DVD playback. You need higher bitrate than 5mbt/s on a DVD to get a clear picture on Bv7 32.  The  artefact's are showned because of the "Vision Clear" picture enhancements and interpolation movie mode calculation are set to high for the little video processor to handle when it pick up a poor video signal with low bitrate like a DVD or SD sat.

 It´s like if your on LSD, then your brain cant handle all information you pick up, and you often get head-burn or hallucination. If  you could turn off all the real time enhancement you could get less lag in the picture!

So this problem are not new, and why a reasonably priced LCD got less artifact´s is because of no "real time enhancement"

I hope everyone understands now how it works out under the hood. Poor signal or low bitrate= the video engine have to work harder=massive artifact´s

Great signal with high bitrate like on blue-ray 17- 30Mbit/s= less artefact's.

(And a fact: The plasma was made for watch film and fast moving content like the CRT tube.

LCD was in the beginning made only for display slow computer pictures, not fast moving pictures)
