Hello everyone. I'm hoping someone can clarify a couple of questions for me.

In the medium to recent past, BeoVision TVs have automatically adjusted their picture settings based on ambient lighting conditions.

1. Does the BeoVision Eclipse include this capability?

I've read a couple of reviews/articles that refer to some "Expert" picture settings or profiles.

2. What is the role of these settings on obtaining accurate/lifelike/good/best picture reproduction? Do they have to be manually selected?

Thanks, everyone, for your time.

Hi Jan

with the Almando Box, TV will act as the center speaker and your BL 5 will work as left and right front. Actually, I saw the process on Loewe TV where the speakers setting are made. It is easy to do so.

How does this work? I thought the TV will switch off its internal speaker when directing its output to the Armando Box? What you are saying is too good to be true...

In the Loewe sound setting, we have to select the "Digital Out" as the sound option and with that, in the menu, it shows the function of Loewe TV speakers which can be selected as the 'center speaker'. 

Once I get my TV delivered with Almando, I will go through the set up and post a full detailed steps to confirm. My Loewe dealer was very well informed about the B&O (his company sells the B&O also at other locations and he himnself has been a primary B&O dealer before managing the Loewe Gallry) and also use of Almando Box for past many years.

1)    No, not the way it was done in earlier Beovisions.

2)  That is a possibility that LG has in all their sets. Its just that you access a LOT more settings to tweak manually. 

Hi. 

Got my brand new Beovision Eclipse 55" yesterday and it sounds amazing.
When it comes to the picture I have som questions:

1. Apple TV 4K through HDMI A doesn't work at all with 60 HZ Dolby Vision. A fix on the way?
No audio delay at all. 

2. Quick fix by connecting it to HDMI 1 directly in the LG screen does work but there are audio delays on 5.1 surround. This is an issue that is known to Apple and they are fixing it.  

Anyone else with these issues?

On another positive note, I have taken the plunge and have confirmed order for the Loewe 7.77 with motorized stand and Almando Box. Total cost including shipping to USA is Euro 14,600.

Congratulations on good researching and I believe bargaining - that's a very good price !

I was looking at a Loewe Bild 7-65 today. I can connect it via phono to my 5s if I choose to keep them. I listened to a Blad Runner advert using these Klang 9s. Really impressed, and they can certainly hold their own with the 5s. The vocals were far clearer on the Loewe so it didn't need to be as loud.

Although I still dislike the Beovision Eclipse "Full LG" interface, I have finally found an interesting value in it for some users (which doesn't make it cheap but helps to swallow the price pill) : people who want to connect a video projector to their Beovision, let me explain :

The Videoprojector output is gone since the BV7/Beosystem 3. Since then, your only solution is to get at least a HDMi x*2 switch, or a HDMI matrix x*x. If you want full integration (control everything via Beoremote One), you have to get this switch/matrix from Atlona, which means, for a 4K HDR compatible switch, at least 800/1000€. 

Side note at this step : people are complaining about the astronomical cost of the B&O "soundbar", but what about Atlona cost for simple switches : it's just "out of this world pricing"!!

So here is my idea : with the Eclipse, you get a B&O switch with an LG TV over it, linked by a single HDMI. Which means that with a HDMI mirror splitter between the Soundcentre and the LG screen, you get a HDMi output for a Beamer, without having to buy expensive PUC-compatible stuff (the mirror splitter always copies the input to 2 outputs). You'll be able to get all external sources to the beamer. And as I'm not very interested by internal sources for big screen, that's a very nice solution I think.
