Guys,
I almost do not know where to begin, but to try and make it short I have had a Beovision 7-40 with internal Blu-ray for a year and a half. During this time the tv set, although functional, have had a variety of trouble. This has been related to the panel (replaced), PIM module (replaced), Blu-ray player (replaced) and software.
Now, my dealer agrees that enough is enough, as well as does B&O luckily. I am about to get my entire set replaced, and have managed to put some funds in between and use this opportunity to upgrade to 7-55 with backlit LED. One could after such an experience wonder why I stick with B&O, but trouble aside the picture is unmatched by any other manufacturer. That I know of anyway.
So, I have now ordered my new set without Blu-ray. Less things to go wrong. However the recent trouble of the player was related to BD-live, where the whole thing jammed from lack of memory when playing certain discs. I was explained by my dealer that B&O knew of this, and that it was due to lack of memory for some discs. The most recommended external player to go with these sets, is the Samsung BD-C7500. It has, according to the Samsung Internet site, 1 GB of internal memory. Then, I was reading up on Beovision 7 specs, where I see that the internal player of that set has 2 GB of internal memory.
Now, I wonder if I made a msitake ordering monitor only, or if I am on the right track all in all.
Any views would be highly appreciated.
