Hi EmilThese are the detailed specifications for the HDMI inputs within the ‘B&O Harmony’. 4 x HDMI on the Beovision Harmony with PUC and CEC. All HDMI connections support HDMI 2.0 with EARC and HDCP 2.3I am going to see the television the 20th of June, Do people have any question, because then I can ask them. I for one would like to know if the HDMI in the B&O section is 2.1 (I hope that is why it is first coming in Oktober) Beovision Eclipse, Beolab 20, Beosound 1 Google assist, Beoplay M3, Beoplay H6

Should be sufficient, I guess.

But do they support hdmi 2.1? or just 2.0?
We'll have John on again on the podcast this Friday and he has the Harmony over the weekend in his shop for invited guests and a video 😁 So we can ask all these things in detail and get some more info too!
I can confirm that the LG screen supports HDMI 2.1 and the B&O soundcenter supports HDMI 2.0. Regards StuartB&O Ealing
Dolby Atmos suffers over arc on hdmi 2.0, hdmi 2.1 is necessary for full bandwith atmos with arc. So that is a key factor for considering a soundcenter that pulls sound from the TVs 2.1 sources if added that way.
Also for 4K 100Hz or 120HZ hdmi 2.1 is necessary, but most material is still not above 60. But might change.
I would say hdmi 2.1 should be the correct implementation as this is what is being pushed 2019. A soundcenter for a high cost with an already older port that can not support high resolution sound? MMm neh..
These are the supported sound formats for HDMI A-D in the soundcenter. Dolby Digital 5.1Dolby Digital plus 7.1DTS HD-Master Audio 7.1 and the underlying DTS formatsPCM 7.1The HDMI output from screen to soundcenter supports eARC. These are the sound formats that can be transported via eARC but not all have to be supported:Dolby Digital Plus (up to 7.1 channel)Dolby TrueHD (up to 7.1 channel)Dolby AtmosDTS-HD High Resolution Audio (up to 7.1 channel)DTS-HD Master Audio (up to 7.1 channel)DTS:XI suppose B&O’s answer to Dolby Atmos is True Image which works really well with ceiling height installed loudspeakers. We have installed with an Eclipse 55 centre, BL18 front, Celestial Ceiling Height Rear, BL17 Surrounds and BL19 sub and play DD 5.1 content through it and the upscale of audio to fill in sounds is amazing. Just a thought and suggestion.
Is the Apple TV app built into this do we know?

Hi Beoworlders,
As Beovision Harmony is now available to view at B&O Harrods in London until 11th August, I thought you may be interested to see this short video review that I filmed yesterday in store:-
