BV11 and V1 have no HDMI out ports, so I wouldn't expect support for multiple displays for these two in the future.

I don't know if I agree with the a lot of "alone" buyers are using it. As a person who has sold BS3 since it's launch I have to say a fraction of a fraction of people I know use the 2 display setup.... at least in my markets. I do agree that it should have been marketed more as I'm sure if people really knew the full potential of such a setup they would surely use it more. A shame at the end of the day. 

While I agree that having such a feature is an added benefit, there is more involved behind scenes to have a 2 display support beyond the simply add a socket for $10. Much more. And sure the spec's may look that much better when totally integrated, but the price will have to go up with the addition of integrating the feature. It may be real cool for a select few, the fact of the matter is the usage isn't there I'm sure to justify it. I'm not sure that 95% should suffer an increase in cost when only 5% use it. 

I have found the stand alone buyers are usually integrating non-B&o equipment because of other product preference, lack of perceived value in the whole B&O setup (i.e. I'm not paying xxxxx for that screen, when I have the new Kuro etc.), integration of legacy of B&O equipment all ready owned, or are doing it in smaller steps due to budget/price. In the very beginning it was for the PUC control as Crestron etc., were pricey back then and few companies were controlling B&O and non-B&O at the same time, obviously that has changed dramatically over the years.

Exciting times ahead either way with the launch of the product!!

Oh, I'm pretty certain that the drop in FLAC support was not a B&O decision, but a decision of the chip manufacture they source from.

Hi PapaJustify,

did you read my post just above yours - obvisiously not.

But that's PowerLink to an ML/MCL convertor. I was talking about PowerLink to an RCA adapter to another brand's amplifier. The ML/MCL convertor (or amplifier used in the passive kit) is fine for little speakers but is simply underpowered for large home theater installations .

What is the UK price for Beosys4 on its own?

No need to get cocky. I was just pointing out the obvious and wasn't even talking to you.

Hi PapaJustify,

keep it cool - should I apologize for my comment 😕

MM

No, it's cool. We are just keeping our heads cool :P
