Pictures would help, but what you could always do is place a cabinet in front of the sockets to house any external units (such as Sky Boxes, Media Servers or Games Consoles etc...), and place the BeoVision 7 next to this on a floor stand.

A solution that I saw was to place a BeoLab 5 (expensive advice) in front of the connection panel and the BV7 next to it with a silver sock to hide the cables running to the 7.

I have the same problem when I soon want to exchange my Avant 28 with a BeoVision 7.

I have planed to mount a plate about 5 centimeters from the wall covering all the plugs, then just have the cables come out under the plate and directly into the stand of the BeoVision 7. The plate should then be painted the same colour as the wall. Then you have to stand very close to the wall to se all the sockets.

Anyway thats what I plan to do - not very well planned yet.

We recently had our house extended and the hope was to have the B&O position re wires and plugs sorted at that time. As usual things didn't go quite to plan.

 Our proposal was to have the various power sockets hidden in the wall on one spur. One switch would have activated them all. This unfortunately didn't happen. We have wooden floors however and the joiner constructed a unit/ box from the same wood to hide all of the plugs. Not perfect but it doesn't look too bad and is hidden behind the subwoofer.

 All wires to the TV, speakers and PS3 have been tied together using cable socks etc; run along the floor and then up the back of the aluminium leg of the floor stand. Again they are not too noticeable. The leads for the back speakers for the surround sound were run under the floor.

 The position in our other lounge is far better. We have a Beovision 6-26 wall mounted using the STB bracket. It has a pair of beolab 4's just to supplement the sound from its own speaker either side on wall brackets. All wires (including masterlink to the Beovision 7) are hidden in the wall.

Perhaps B&O's new set top box covers could be a solution, they come in two sizes and consist of a black metal plate that is designed to hold an STB and comes with an L-shaped cover in brushed aluminium. I'll see if I manage to include a picture of one mounted on a wall.

My local dealer has them in stock. The small one is approx €200 and the larger one is approx €250.

Hi Razlaw,

We are in exactly the same situation as you and was just wondering what solution you came up with ?
