Assuming the smoked oak is the same as used on the A9, I think that might look pretty good on the standard aluminium BL18 too.

Absolutely! I believe it is the same. The work on our house is going to be quite dark and cosy so I'm ver excited!

And you will be able to get a speaker cover made of oak on the face lifted BV11 4k (avail. 08/16) - could be a tasty combo if they release a black version of the new tv, too.

Ooooh that could be exciting with the new BL18 finish! I've heard the new BV11 you speak of will be called BV14. It I'll be a hard decision between that and the MKII Avant as they're both going to be 4K and both Android powered.

That's exactly how I imagined the wood for the new BV11 - as a speaker cover. Sounds really nice!
