No way - that is just a display.

MM

Quite cool! Maybe upcoming BV will be only display and the speakers separately, even the center. Or at least some models (as has been before with BV4/7/12).

How to solve a moving floor stand would be interesting to see but these slim tvs are really slick.

I said this was coming on this very forum a few years ago, only to be laughed at. If B&O don't see this as an opportunity in speakers like the 12 series, they'll be missing a massive trick.

In a few short years, the idea of having a large boxy rectangle in your room will seem odd. The panels will simply paste or attach magnetically to a wall, with all the processors tucked neatly away. A Beovision 12-65, but 2mm thick.

Now I started to think even of B&O developing a set of "screen-agnostic" TV speaker combos/soundbars that you can complement then with B&O or non-B&O TV screens... ...obviously from design etc perspective being most effectively and seamlessly integrated with B&O panel.

What a lovely possibility. :)

even patched on a wall, a screen is a screen unless their reliability and power consumption let us display pictures all day long. then it will become something different.

this is just geek masturbation that just destroy the television as an object. Hard for the manufacturer to add their brand and differences.

 

That seems like a poor excuse for not adopting this type of technology. How many Beoworlder's have wall mounted screens with the cables hidden inside the walls neatly?

I have seen many screen unprotected by a piece of glass in front completely destroyed by just the pressure of fingers on the side (by just moving them).

I don't know if the oled tv are less or more sensible to these risks. (dents, scratches...).

 

 

 

I have done it with beolab 5000, beolab 10 and a pair of beolab 5 

this was a long job, only possible because my garage was at the back of the wall. maybe some beoworlders have the time and courage for doing it (not putting on the wall just a bv10 or 11 but a complete set), but most of people just hang the tv and/or use an av receiver.
