I went to the local B&O again today, and they thought that there could be an issue with connecting BS9k via Masterlink-RJ45 converter to the Eclipse...
Anyone how knows if the Eclipse can control the BS9000?
I know nothing specific of the Eclipse, but I would assume it requires a BeoLink ML/NL Converter (BLC) like every other NL device needs to work with ML devices.

It's really like this. According to one of the recent articles it's done in order to improve airflow to optimise the bass.Have you noticed that the holes at the top are smaller than the ones at the bottom? Is it just the picture, or is it really like this? Any possible reason?
Stb brackets have now got stands info on there website and prices soon.Sounds interesting as
A easel stand.wall bracket and stb mounts for hou dvd ect 😁
Giving other choices and not just b & o.
The five stages of getting a fresh-launched new B&O flagship product:- Denial: I don't need one, this cannot be what we have waited for! It is not what I expected. I cannot believe they came up with such a product.
- Anger: What has happened to B&O! They have lost their core! Everything was better in the David Lewis era! B&O management has lost it!
- Bargaining: Well, you do get the best picture & sound in a well-designed product. Separates from other manufacturers would cost a lot less, but B&O has it all in a nice pretty package. And there's multiroom, and the beautiful BeoRemote. I am sure my dealer makes a good offer (a little something off the list price will be good). Having a few drinks while thinking it over.
- Depression: Your bank account takes a hit :(
- Acceptance: Boy am I lucky I got one. Such a joy to behold, on and off. It is special, like no one else. Raving on BeoWorld how magnificent it is. That picture! The sound! How great it actually looks. Admitting the early criticism was way too harsh.

Okay my intial thoughts on my visit to a store today. it does look better than the pictures but i'm still... it's an lg tv with b&0 sound.
I can't help but think anti reflective contrast screen visionclear processing discreeter design but hey it's here now what can you do??
the picture to me is ok doesn't have that b&0 touch but it being oled amazing rich blacks good colours etc... The sound quality wow very rich and clear punchy, but i would like a bit more bass but thats just me.
In summary though i would if it was me buying an oled get the loewe bild 4 which is £2990 and pair it with some beolabs via the digital audiolink input. the picture quality from the loewe far exceeds the lg/eclipse in picture processing, in motion clarity and sharpness.
And i love the simple minimalist GUI too on the Loewe, on the eclipse it is clunky and disjointed.
Again just expressing my opinions others may like what they see.
Yes, the easel stand was actually something I was expecting & looking forward to.
Good news indeed, for the design and for the few hundreds €/$/£ shaved from the Eclipse price.
On a side note, I wonder if the Eclipse will work with the Beoremote App. On the traditional Beovisions, the app communicates bi-directionally with the TV. The way the eclipse has been assembled, I guess the app will only be able to get info from the B&O hardware, not the LG.
Since I understand the TV tuner is part of the LG panel, we will probably be able to tune to Channel 100 (the soundcenter will use CEC), but the app won't be able to display which channel it is. Not a deal breaker... but another little detail gone.

Agree - a better picture on the stbbracket site would be nice, though.
