If all the Dutch programs were on YouTube then you could simply use the new Apple TV.

Hi All,

I have seen the BV10 at two dealers today. In Malmö and Lund (Sweden) and requested a price quote for BV10-40 with anti reflex panel and floorstand (can't put it on the wall where I live now, neither do I like it that much, but that's personal).

However some questions still remain to decide if I actually should buy the TV yes/no

- what's a DVB-HD module and why is it recommended not to take one (now directly) I have the feeling that I do not need this device but I wanted to check here first.

- picture quality made me a bit uncertain. Standing 4 mtrs from the screen (and even with BV10-32) it seemed to be a bit 'over-digital' and 'granular'. Particularly in Malmö I was negativly surprised by the B&O / Audi demo movie on the TV.Is this settings? What settings should I request when I go for a 2nd demonstration. At the dealer in Lund I have watched normal (Swedish) TV channels.I recall to have seen better picture/screen quality at my former dealer in Roermond (Netherlands).

According to my wife the picture quality on our MX6000 (and previous our Avant 32") is better 😮 ?

.... for now I will be watching at the B&O BV10 poster to get used to the size of the TV and to determine where to place it.

Have a great christmas to you all.

The picture quality on your MX or avant is NOT better. Simply impossible.

Ask to see a Blue ray movie connected via HDMI, and you'll see the tv's real potential.

Hi Ferdinand, I have owned the BV10-40 and now have the BV10-46. One of the reasons was of course size, the other has to do with clouding. An issue which could happen on some of the earlier generations of the BV10-40. I do not know if this is still an issue (understood it was solved by a software update and better cooling in the last generation), however you can find a lot of threads on this at the forum. 

Regarding the picture quality, it can partly depend on the quality of the signal the TV is receiving. Over here in cold and currently snow covered NL, I got reasonable quality with a normal analog signal however using the digital signal created a huge improvement and make the screen really stand out.

Regarding the DVB-HD module,  it is in essence a build-in set-top box. Pending where you are living the decoder cards you need to descramble the digital signal are supported or not. I have not bought it and using a separate Humax HD recorder with twin tuners.

For accessing Dutch TV, you can, as you probably know, use "uitzending gemist" however the quality is to low to put that in full-HD mode on your computer. Alternatives you can find at http://www.allekanalen.nl/nederlandse-kanalen.html When I looked at it, already some time ago, quality was reasonable at most and for the better quality channels you need a subsription.

All,

I have ordered my BV10-40 mkII yesterday (29/12) w/floorstand.

I want to have a new DVD player connected to it and B&O advise either Pioneer (I know that Thavn in Norway has good experience) or Samsung.

The Samsung model is BDC 7500W is a very slim model that will mounted on the back of the BV10. So no extra cabinets needed to hide the DVD-player. Unfortunately I have not written down the Pioneer number.

If there is any experience or there are recommendations on set-up, please let me know ... early next week I will make my order complete inlcuding colour of the speaker-cover-fabric.🙂

Have a great evening,

Ferdinand

excellent choice😕

Hi!

I use the 10-40 + Samsung BDC7500 mounted at the back of 10-40 using stb brackets. A very nice solution. Just one but: Of course I´m controlling the samsung with Beo4 but IR-codes could be better. I now use codes for bdc 4600. If I use codes for blue ray there are no commands for pause, ff, fast rewind etc. Very irritating. When I use codes for bdc4600 I cannot change source between disc, computer  etc.

regards
