For me this TV is more of a piece of Art where you either love it or hate it.
I'm glad i got my Beovision Eclipse 55 last month after selling my LOEWE BILD 7.. I'l be keeping that TV for a while.
The Beovison Eclipse was my first ever BV TV and i personally love it. The BV Harmony looks like a "TV concept of the future" product designed in the 70s /80s at an expensive price point. The movement of the panels shoould have just move DONWARDS like the LOEWE BILD 7, now that was classy.
I have a set of Beolab 50s, two pairs of 18s and a host of other B&O speakers so the budget is not the issue here.The movement of the panels shoould have just move DONWARDS like the LOEWE BILD 7, now that was classy AND it had the black curtains in software.
Also No one seems to be mentioning that fact the Harmony has LOST the motorised stand to rotate the TV in different positions. I suppose at 77 inch that would be impossible/impractical. The two tiered wood colour is ok but i would prefer a single tone like all maple, all oak or all smoked oak The two tone grey fabric is terrible take away from the contrast of the wood.
If B&O does release are centre speaker with less capabilities that the eclipse that will be funny.
At this point the future for me once my eclipse packs or i decide to upgrade is a non B&O TV with a soundbard will not match from an aesthetic point of view. The prospect of no beoremote is not great, i never got why people loved it so much until i got the eclsipse. To me me the future post Eclipse would be the LG rollable TV with a B&O soundba - Now that is impressive and moderrn.
Allot of people slated the Eclipse including myself until i got one, now I magine there will be a rush of people trying to get the eclipse before they run out of stock. Especially as theres no 55 inch version of any B&O TV left in the catalogue assuming the Eclipse /Horizon are EOL.
i always thougt i was late to the B&O party with my first BV being the Eclipse but it seems i got in at the optimum time.
