I have an Avant 55 First Gen, and I completely love it. I bought it for two primary reasons: plays 3D blur ays, and the amazing two motion floor stand. I bought it from a dealer second hand, which I highly recommend.

Make it three.

However, if you don’t need NL integration and the advanced audio option of the BSys4-engine and more......,you’ll be happy with the BV7-55.

I edit myself as I found the article about ranking. The Avant 75 is in it, not the 55.

here it is:

Thanks - I did read that and that’s why I was considering the older BV 7-55.

Its not as expandable as the newer models but it sounds like the pinnacle of BV 7s is a hard act to follow!

l haven’t measured the space up as yet but I believe the BV 7-55 is pretty big and maybe too large for the corner I’m try to fill

As far as I know the BV7 is based on the Beosystem 3 platform, the Avant on more or less the Beosystem 4 type of sound engine.

Owning a BS3 for may years which I now have retired the sound quality at multi channel audio does not come close to the newer systems.

At least at my market there is still a big gap in budget for both superb TV sets which does not make it easy..but I would go for he Avant as also retired ML and switched to NL.

Great advice thank you.

I agree the Avant helps me create a better pathway forwards.

do you think version 1 or 2 of the Avant 55?

Researching this I’ve heard v1 was a better offering
