Oh come on. This is your B&O PR at it's worst. How can you dislike a thin panel which sits flush on the wall? It looks amazing! Who wants a beast hanging off your wall? No-one. Well, apart from you, clearly :)

And the C9 isn't a GX, is it? That's the point. The GX is completely flush. You don't see anything. Wires, mount, nothing. They all go in to the back of the TV. It's so good. It also enables you to have a far bigger TV, too. For example, I could have a GX 77" instead of the huge footprint of the old BV12-65.

I'm sure some people on here want to live in 1992 and haven't moved on, but assume design from 1992 is still 'really cool' (think chromed products, black plastic, lots of bulk, manual control etc).

I think he means the C line, which are not flush to the wall at all.

The GX is much nicer in this regard.

And B&O are clearly using this panel/TV for both the Harmony and Eclipse.

Please spare me your ‘your B&O PR at it’s worst’ rubbish - we are exchanging opinions here....nothing more.

I was talking the socalled thin OLEDS, not the GX.....and I expressed my curiousity about how an Eclipse 2nd gen (which is supposed to have a GX part) will look on the wall.

Of course you are right, if you just want to have it flush to the wall - I suppose however, that that version will be made to turn just like the Version 1.

Your preferences don’t have to be mine - and mine not yours....lets cool it.

B&O - as usual - will do what they like. And we will have to see the 2nd gen in the flesh, before we decide thumbs up or down, I’d suggest.

Many personal opinions now but its also good, everyone has one and B&O is doing high end style products for us so they should listen as well. I hope we can soon see more of this new product and I think over all it looks good. The panel doesnt have to be thin, just good. But the thinness from the original Eclipse I did find cool and I will miss it on this design, at least at the beginning. I do think it will be less risky as it has more strenght probably though, which should be beneficial. 

The new screen also has built in speakers etc so it is easier to sell when its time to move to a newer product again.

And hey, B&O, listen. People obviously want modularity. The Stage gives you that in a simple and good way but it lacks the modularity with the B&O eco system. Give us both in a product that can be as the sound center and everyone would be happy. 

And here's the answer for my original question... GX panel. That's gonna be interesting wall mounting.

Now price is another and when the 65" is available...
