Hi Andy

Isn't it the Albedo album I have it myself on a burned cd

You'll be fine. The transformer and perhaps some scart > RCA adaptors. As long as you don't plan on using the internal tuner. 

Hi Guys...thanks for the feedback but there seems to be a few conflicting answers. Anyone got a more definitive reply or additional info that I could research further myself? Spoke to my local dealer and got a "we don't think it will work" type answer but didn't get the impression it was fully investigated if you know what I mean...

I moved 10 years back from Germany. I took a BS2300/BL2500 which is since then running on tranformers.

I would not do that with a TV though. Yes you probably can make it work somehow, as Trip indicates.

Is it a good idea? For starters, B&O US will not be able to service your TV. I learned this the hard way with a phone I bough in Germany few years later.

Also, everything here happens through external cable boxes. The brands a different then what you are used to from the UK so most likely your STB will not support these. I doubt it can be upgraded since the US never has seen that model. So say hello to 2 remotes. 

Personally I would say good bye for it, find a loving soul who will cherish it and say hello to a BV 7 MK3 sans DVD if you still can scoop up a deal at your new local dealer .....

How long will you be staying?

One more thing, the transformers might probably cost you more then a cheap TV. I bough a 3 low powered for the BS2300/BL2500. These were like 30 bucks a pop. For a TV you need a much higher rated supply, these are expensive ..... And yes, the frequency might be an issue ..... mine somehow work without it - I had problems with timers and alarm clocks though, i.e. in my VCR.

I can confirm Trips advice that the Beovision 3 will work in the US provided you use a STB and do not try and use the analogue tuner.

Certainly you will need to use a step down mains transformer and the different mains frequency will not be an issue.

The biggest issues you are likely to have are:-

1. Getting the Beovision 3 repaired if it goes wrong may be an issue.
2. The STB-C depending on the table version are going to be for European STB's and in the US they use a lot of cable STB's which you are unlikely to find in the STB-C of any version. Clearly you can still use the STB's own remote.
