Dear All:

It has been a while since I have posted.  Post-grad work is just that work.  Well, update: My original first tele BV 7-40 died within three years of purchase. B&O of A tried several times to get the video fixed without success.  After grad school, I moved from the midwest to the east coast, dubious choice.  

 

Well, B&O of A agreed to provide a new TV when I arrived to my new area.  The B&O in Bethesda, MD made me an offered that was very good.  They would allow me to upgrade to the 55 inch tele w/ blue ray for under under 5K USD.  At the time sounded like a good deal.  

I was finally able to take delivery of the tele.  The price for them to come out is a bit high considering the price of the tele.  Not to mention that I helped the driver to get the tele in the house.  He was the only one which is crazy for such a large delivery.  

I need help with the set up of the base, the tall one.  Does anyone have the instructions, tips and tricks to make it easier.  

 

Regards,

Ruben Dario

First of all congratulations to your purchase ! A 7-55 "adornes" my home as well for just a few weeks. Beautiful and stunning to say the least.

Do you refer to the motorstand and a setup with BL 7-4 or BL 7-6 ?

Personally I would advise you to get in touch with your B&O dealer. If coming to your home for proper setup is out of the question for travel distance, I would at least ask him to provide you with the proper setup instructions of the base and how to attach TV and loudspeakers.  This is not a "Best Buy" purchase - IMHO you should be able to get at least proper remote support...

I did not setup the TV on my own - glad to have the "specialists" from B&O do it ... however, starting up the TV for the first time and then run through the user manual and do the setup of loudspeakers, preferences etc. was quite intuitive and less complicated than I thought...

Hope you get beyond installation soon ... Enjoy your new TV !

(PS. User / setup manuals for both 7-40 and 7-55 posted in Beoworld may be of help)
