I wouldn't let a little thing like this put you off the brand , I can assure you mainstream manufacturers suffer even more problems - awaiting s/w updates plus none of them are built like a bno 

I feel that the point at issue is that B & O's ability to respond to, and correct, an identified software issue is highly questionable.

As for the build, and aesthetic qualities of B & O TVs, they count for very little if the product is unable to fulfill  it's primary function.

Now watching TV on Sky at volume 70, it's only an average level of volume. Isn't there normally a green light on the Beolab 14 sub? The satellites are working.

I know this doesn't help, but volume 70 on a BV11?! I've never been above around 55, ever! Anything above 55 would be incredibly loud.

Same here. 50 a typical volume.

The kids are watching a movie at volume 56 now and your right, its quite loud. Occasionally when the TV decides to just do surround sound or some bizarre mix, even at 70 its muffled. Then the centre comes on, and it's deafening. This is an 11 issue Moxxey, not my 11. B&O know about this fault.

Remember all that grief i had about this last year, when even i began to doubt myself. Life's too short to be worrying about what AV solution your TV has install for you tonight. I got so fed up with it, last night i thought balls to it i'll take the kids to the cinema. We got there and sat down, to only get a phone call to say that our intruder alarm was going off, and most of Northumberland were unhappy about it.

It never rains..............

How many speakers do you have connected up ? 

I'm only adding a pair of beoloab 6000's , hopefully I'll have no issues , hopefully :)

The Beolab 14.4.1 system. 4 satellites and a sub. 

Sorry to hear about your problems,it's frustrating when you pay hard earned money on a luxury item and it lets you down.Granted had my 7-40 mark 6 a while,and has never missed a beat.

Get rid of it and get another bv7 40 or 55,it's a better all round solution in my eyes,with effortless sound and picture quality.

Flappo I have Beolab1s connected and the sound is fantastic for music and video. I never had any problems but took me a while to get to the right settings for each sound mode.
