It looks like the non European versions have no HD tuners inside.  That means as a minimum for the celing mount you would need to have a power cord, 1 HDMI cable and a PUC cable to the V1.  Add a blue ray and add 1 more HDMI and 1 PUC. 

I think I see another wire sock design coming plus the C1 equipment cabinet.

If we could only add wireless HDMI and power it could look like the photo. 😕

OH. MY. GOD.

I love Bang & Olufsen. Simply beautiful.

Hi Evan!!!

YEP YEP, I LOVE IT TOO!!!  It's going to look awesome in my crib on the dark wooden floor!

Is that who I think it is?!?!

😎

I can imagine it will look stunning. Unfortunately, me and television have parted ways for the sake of productivity and I don't see myself getting back to it anytime soon 🙁

At any rate, the V1 is GORGEOUS.

Duplicate post.

yes it is, hi Evan!!!!!

Yes me too, i use my MacBook for everything and don't use a TV anymore however, i'm liking this V1 and I will use it to stream everything from Apple TV!

The A8 wireless dock looks interesting. Connected my new iPhone 4S to the BS8 on Monday and it sounded a heck of a lot better than I remember it doing.

Hope than you are well Evan!

Good to see you back on the forums, Paul!! 🤒

I watch videos on my laptop as well (a very infrequent activity really), but nothing deserving of such an amazing display. 

I do use a 4th generation iPod touch 64GB for listening although it is losing its precedence over CDs and my uprising vinyl collection. I use it extensively on the move and at school/work etc. I would love to see some new headphones come from B&O. This, IMHO should have been their first segment entry with BeoPlay! I auditioned the BS8 way back when it debuted and I really liked it, I just don't have any solid use for it. With complete BeoSystems at both of my residences, there is just no need.

Personally, I would like to see a replacement for the BeoLab 4. I am moving onto campus soon and wont have room for an 840w BeoSystem. A well executed pair of desktop/bookshelf BeoLabs would fit the bill perfectly. Until then I am left dreaming of Fostex/JBL/KRK monitors etc.

BTW - I am doing great! Hope you are doing good as well mate.

ugly!

Hmmm.....I havent seen one in the flesh, but the pictures I've seen ma ke it look like a cross between a macbook and a portable road sign.

I doubt I'd buy one to be honest - I prefer the "corporate" look of the current BV range to be honest....but hey, personal choice and all.... 

I do think that if they could release an upgrade for the existing range with all the RJ45/ethernet enabled biz, that would be a big step up.

I was reading about the new Masterlink system whoch apparently uses Cat 7 cable. B&O will have to really lift their game if they move into a heavily tech enabled space to be different and hold their edge. I do think the sound & image quality gives B&O an edge, although for a younger crowd ( say sub 35 ) its hard to justify thge cost difference.

I was "ruined" when as a teenager my parents bought a Beosystem 7007.....its still going, even after one of my teenage systers blew up one channel in the amp and caused a speaker to drop onto the floor off a bookshelf listening to U2. My father was less than impressed....

You have a beautiful set of s45's that dream of working campus duty. You'd be surprised living on campus how often you need loud speakers too...
