BV7 BluRay

12 replies
There is a thread on the German forum about BV7 and BluRay. It appears to say that a BluRay is now available and that it can be retrofitted to existing BV7s. Anybody able to translate the thread correctly and/or have any other info on this?  Thanks!  
My german is not brilliant,but the last post appears to be saying that nothing official has been heard,and that it appears to be a poor joke.

I don't think (or at least hope) that this is a joke as my dealer in Germany just confirmed this to me....

Yes, me. :)

 The BeoVision 7-40 Full HD is blu-ray-able! that means existing BV7-40 Full HD can be updated with a Blu Ray - drive as soon B&o releases it...end of the year? We will know more in September.

 

And @ Karsten, this is no joke. Ask your dealer again... ;)

the same happy news i got from my dealer :) -Can´t wait.. 🤩
This is good news. Although my PS3 will play the Blu-ray DVDs, an internal drive would be a bonus. I was told that it might cost around £400 (without install), if anyone else can confirm?
So, assuming it is true, which it appears to be as dealers are telling customers it is, it will still be awhile before it is actually available, or is it available right now? 

My Local shop has not received any official word yet.  Its 'expected', but not 'confirmed'.

I have emailed my dealer to inquire, have not heard back yet.
I heard a rumour about this too - I don't think it will be available at all on the 32" however, presumably because with viewing distances etc the difference between SD and HD is negligible on anything below around a 40".
