Well im going to look at a beovision 7 40" Mk4 on saturday, ive read mixed things some saying it was bettered by tvs of its time which is a bit worrying but hey i guess we will see?

Sorry to jump on to this conversation so late, but I can certainly recommend the 7-40 MKIV. I had one for the last couple of years, before switching over to the BV10-46 (for the larger screen). Recommended. My two-year-old BV7-40 MKIV had a picture as equal to my current/new BV10-46, so the picture quality is excellent. The MKIV is the first BV7 I'd recommend (we've discussed the MKIII dark picture issues).

Hi guys this is my first post here on beoworld. Me and my girlfriend just got the v1 but have had issue's with motion and movement. Everything from blu ray to tv, we had the guys from B&O come last night with a new set and it had the exact same problems. They have taken both tvs away and are going to log this with B&O, i was wondering if anyone else had any problems/issues with the V1?? The guys at B&O norwich have been fantastic! I cant rate them highly enough, just an utter shame the tv at the moment doesnt seem to be up to standards at all :(

I purchased my V1-40 in may 2012. Initially I was very enthousiastic about it but numerous problems started to occur after a while ranging for abrupt shutdowns to software issues in the media player and lately even a green aurora that occasionally started to appear in black parts of the screen (see
