Hi,

Moved into new house 2 months ago. I'm planning to purchase BV8 40 with Beosound 8000 and maybe BS5. Given that we're still recording on VHS (I really have enough of it...) I was planning to buy HDR2. When I then looked at technicals I noticed that here is no HDMI connection for a 1500 EUR price tag!!!

I'm wondering whether it's worth spending that money for it? Is there a digital version with HDMI in the pipeline?

Thanks

 

Patrizio

Hi petz

I was informed by my dealer that the HDR2 will be on sale for about 900 Euro, (in denmark) very shortly. The obvious question from me was if a digital version was in the pipeline but he had no idear.

Good to know. My dealer didn't mention anything.  Anyone has news on this please?

I can confirm that the HDR 2 is being sold out to a price around euro 1000.

Kalle Hvidt(CEO) has announced earlier that they will not produce any external units (V8000, DVD1/2, HDR1/2 etc) anymore.
