completely agree.

but remember its not over til the fat lady sings!

Knowing B&O it'll put everything else out of sync !

At least I now feel justified having spent £8.5K  in October 2017.

Money well spent - NOT

What a mug!

I was alarmed to read on the forum the other day a Horizon or BV14 owner mentioning that sound occasionally disappears, prompting a power cycle. I had the same issue with the 14 i bought 18 months ago! Yes, 18 months ago.....

The fix is indeed a component upgrade which will be preceded by a software update.

My local dealer contacted me yesterday afternoon and said it would be carried out in the next few months.

It will be carried out in home and is a resolution to the inherent problem with regards to 30hz and Apple TV, 4k blu ray players etc etc.

Finally some good news

Regarding new panels for the Eclipse: the planned swap is June, but as we all know it will depend heavily on them emptying the current stock in time.

Hi Roger, how definite is that? B&O in Sydney haven't heard anything about that (but I guess they would say that, wouldn't they). AFAIK, the Eclipse is selling reasonably well so I would assume that stocks would deplete around that time.

Hard to believe that LG are still producing old screens for B&O - I imagine B&O swapped over to the new screens already, it's just a question of length of production time and current stock depletion, but that is my guess.

Any update from anyone on timing for the new screens for the Eclipse?

Update on the HDMI module swap. The sparepart will be available in June here in Denmark.
I was booked in for week 24.

The swap will also include switching two HDMI cables and a SW update on the Soundbar.

I thought I have the same issue; but now I am not sure anymore.

I replaced my HDMI cable for the second time (this time to a certified cable). Immediately when turning on the appleTV, I got the same picture issues (flashing black/noise). But after switching to Dolby Vision 60Hz I tested the AppleTV for several hours and did not get the issue anymore.

Fingers crossed....

How often do you see the issue re-occuring?

A quick update after the new management team presented their plan for the company.

Of the 3 new segments (TV's, BS1/BS2/Speakers and "Play") only the latter made a two digit profit. This is the reason for the change of plans in the other two segments.

Last year the dealers were told that the new design approach with LG for the Eclipse made it easier to swap the panels as LG continued to develop the OLED technology, making it possible for B&O to present a BeoVision with fresh screen tech for the years to come. This approach seems to be dropped now. Instead, the current Eclipse and Horizon will continue to run as-is. The breaking news is that, unless the management team is replaced😁 again, these will be the last BeoVision's as we know them: the future may be some fancy type of soundbar, one for the smaller sizes (less expensive) and a motorized one for bigger sizes (65/77/88). But with the current number of U-turns a lot can change before the launch of these in 2019.  

IMHO, B&O need another Knudsen & Lewis combo to make a new "Break Point" - bring back the Danes in the management of the company! Convince the board that there is a place for B&O in the future of audio and video, and drop the current haunt for the same segment occupied by countless companies such as Bose and others. And drop the idea of B&O being the Louis Vuitton equivalent - a pure luxury material and design company. 

B&O will continue to update colors etc for the Eclipse - keeping the design fresh.
