New Member... Beovision 5 Screen Replacement

5 replies

Hey Guys,

 

My first post! I searched through a bunch of old threads and translated a bunch as well but I couldn't quite find what I was after.

 

I've purchased a 42" Beovision 5 second hand, and I am looking at upgrading the panel. I few things I've figured out based on my searching:

 

* The panel inside my Beovision 5 is a 42" Plasma from Panasonic

* The panel is connected to a B&O motherboard of sorts..

* If I replace the panel and want the speakers to work, it will have to be connected to the B&O motherboard

 

My questions are:

* How is the panel connected to the motherboard?

* Is there an easy way to use the tv independently of the B&O electronics while still utilising the active speaker?

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Guys!

Hello Justin,

I'm looking at doing the same thing. Did you find away of doing this?

Regards Damian

it is very easy. Buy an 40" or 42" Panel LCD. Change Panel .You dont need the old motherboard, just the speaker amplifier.

Is there any way to get a breakdown of the steps?  Can I keep the built in speakers?  Will the beo4 still turn the stand?

 

thank you

Hi,

I know it's a while ago you asked. But i did the screen upgrade and still have full control via Beo4.
