As for the new ML cable, is this going to be able to deliver HD video?

That will be the point of the new ML cable.

Talking of new products, what's the status on the rumoured Beocenter 3 - the Beocenter 2 upgrade. If B&O are bringing out a range of BV7s without DVD player, they're going to have to upgrade the BC2 if they have a BV-70+Blu-ray option but no option for customers who've bought the BV7-40 without DVD.

I would love to see a updated/upgraded HDR2/DVD2.  Seeing that neither of these products made it to the US market that I have ever seen.

A unit that combines the HDR2 and DVD2 technology/features into one along with being equipped with a Blu-ray drive and upgrade HD to 1TB.

Now that's something I would be interested in 😐

 

Perhaps not a question regarding a new product but has anyone heard anything about an upgrade of the current BeoCenter 6? A really beautiful tv according to my opinion but with the new non dvd-7-32 coming it seems a bit expensive (and old...). A new pricetag (at least something to dream about) and screen would make me really interested in an upgrade from my currenct BV6-26 MKI.

Hi all,

Seems like everyone is exicted about the new products.  But what about support to the 'older' TV?  Any chance we can retro fit HDMI to the older version BV7?

Aslo the masterlink only handles analogue signal, would there be a 'digital' version of masterlink without digging out the cables in my house?

My self too. I cannot imagine that I have to change the masterlink cable in all the house. Frankly spoken it is just impossible.

Definetelly B&O has to find some short of solution to this. Of course they can alsways built me a new house!!!!!!!! 😂

It was said by B&O UK Chief in one of Lee's interview that the new digital masterlink will based on Ethernet. He also said that "beolink converter" type boxes will be available.

The advantage of Ethernet:

  • It is a standard
  • Some home are already cabled with it
  • It can be routed via Wifi
  • Other non B&O devices could have their software adapted to join interface with the Beolink system
  • It could carry the Beolink signals AND your internet/LAN at the same time

So if your house does not have Ethernet, here is what will happen:

  • You will still be able to use the current system, but in analogue (just like could have a mixed ML/MCL network)
  • You can use Wifi instead
  • B&O may provide a Ethernet over ML solution

but still doesn't address the problem with pre HDMI TV.  I can't afford to buy another BV7 just because of the extra HDMI slots.

Haven't you got a DVI input?

Hi Phil.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thnk ML cable has more than the std ethernet? Under that scope and if this is true maybe the old ML will still be useable.
