BV8 - my first view and observations
Bought one with a floor stand from my local dealer over the weekend. The floor stand is very sturdy - matt painted cast metal - I assume steel.
The TV looks much better (to my eye) in real life as opposed to photos and fits well with my BC 3200 and BL6s (black frets). I think it will continue to grow on me. The picture is excellent - I felt better than the 6-26. Very sharp and good in low light with good motion handling. Sound is also impressive and I can use the BL6000s through the BC 3200 for DVDs etc when more bass is required.
The connections seem OK for a 'real lfe' set up with two scarts and hdmi option for when I upgrade to HD (when suficient material is available). I'm not too worried about the lack of a digital tuner as I use Sky.
One moan - there is no option to set a PIN - odd when some of the lower priced audio units have this facility. I am likely to bite the bullet and get a video stand when they are available as it is impossible to conceal the Sky box and DVD player.
Not a cheap option but a quality product and superior to the Loewe offerings at a similar price point. It will certainly do for a few years until I can save up the cash to get a 7-32.
Hi,
I'm wondering, if the picture quality would be good enough for using it as a PC screen. I tend to buy a BV 8 instead of a BV6 (which became my "first love" bevore the release of BV8). BV8 seems to me more compact and less "TV".
Have anyone tested it as a display already? would be nice to use it at my home office. Maybe I have to take my notebook and go for a visit to my B&O dealer. Unfortunately they haven't got it yet.
If anyone has some experience with using it as screen, just drop me some line.
Tx in advance!
regards kimmy
