Where do you think the BV7 heading - technology-wise

23 replies

It seems clear that we're expecting an updated BV7, with 1080p - and some sort of Beosystem3.

What about the outdated DVD?

Will we see a recordable DVD added? What about HD DVD?

Presumably lack of HDMI sockets will be sorted when it gets a Beosystem added.

 Not sure what is actually known (do we know anything until launch?) and what is speculation.

Interested in this forum's knowledge😜
 

Well all of the above would be really nice, but since mine is only 2 weeks old, I wouldn't like to see a new version for about another 6 to 8 months 😉

I agree, I just ordered mine and will arrive in about 2 weeks Party!!!

I can tell you that the new BeoVision 7's are scheduled to arrive in the delears in August. The revised models will have a reasonably up to date (but probably not the latest since they are already in production) 1080p Samsung LCD panel with a BeoSystem 3 chasis. The system will have 3 HDMI ports. Otherwise, the TV is the same. There will not be an updated DVD player, which I think is a shame as I would have liked to see a dual Blueray/HD-DVD player with this key revision. That's as much as I personally know about this TV. I have been looking into this since December and I am currently waiting for this revision before purchasing a B&O TV. Having said that, it will have to perform remarkably better than the current 7-40 model to meet my expectations. Watch this space ... we will see.

Party!!!

We've been discussing the new BV7 for months on this board. It's due in the States first (any time now) and in Europe around July/August. The 40¨ model will have a mini-BS3 incorporated, 1080p screen and HDMI input. No upgraded DVD player though, from what I've been told.

What about the 32" ? No beosystem 3 integrated?!
