Think it would look very bad for B&O if they left out the Mk1 owners with no upgrade path (keeping the soundcenter). These C7 panels will inevitably die or have serious issues within a few years.

Very keen to see the official pricelist pdf with part numbers. Looking for retrofit VESA adapter as well as standalone SoundCenter price.

I'm considering taking the 55" off the wall (leaving the GX 65" wall-mounted) and adding the stand and sound bar....if it's justifiable. I do fear that those two components alone will be around £6000+

No, custom panel and no speakers in it. Also the milling is different for the new panels to sit in the top of it. New: Beovision Harmony, Beolab 50's, Beolab 18's, Beolab 17's, Beolab 3's, Beosound 9000 mk3, Beosound Stage & LG, Beosound 2, Beoplay M3, Beoplay A1, Beoplay H4 gen 2, Beoplay E8 3.0

I don't think the new soundbar is designed (bottom part with 'fake panel') around the C7, so would be very surprised if you could upgrade or drop a GX panel in to the Eclipse v1 sound center - the bottom panel would look odd and not fit the GX profile?

For refence, Harmony Sound Center prices (DKK, Sept 1 pricelist)

7102 Beovision Harmony Sound Center 62.000,-    = 8325 EUR

172100 Mounting bracket til 65" skærm 2.200,-  = 295 EUR

7106 Front - grey melangé 9.500,-

7107 Front - oak, bronze tone/valnød, brass tone/smoked oak 18.500,-

7113 Floor stand - silver, bronze tone, brass tone 4.100,-

I waited for v2, but looking at the specs, i buy the v1 (55) 😕and save 2500 euros. 🙂

I think you might find the saving shortsighted  how  long will B&O keep spare 2017 panels  Max 5 years- You might find yourself with a very expensive paperweightas owners of other beovisions have found

The soundcenter have also been changed, so I do not think you can do that.

Sell the old complete and buy a new would be the way to go.

But what are you missing in the "old" can't see a reason to upgrade other than functions for the new consoles.

Beovision Eclipse, Beolab 5, Beolab 17, Beosound 1 Google assist, Beoplay M3, Beoplay H6, Beoplay Earset

Looks as though there is no motorised wall bracket with v2
