Overture with integrated iPhone - thoughts
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 17, 2012 04:42Yes €890 (just enquired) which does make it expensive. I had thought this was a great update to my long unused Overture and BL4000 but is it worth the cost of a new BS8? Ageing Overture vs new BS8 - I think this conversi…

Beovision 10 screen sizes
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 21, 2009 17:31Hi - apologies if this has been covered already but are there any plans to release the beovision 10 in larger screen sizes? I am going to purchase a 40" for the bedroom but need a larger size for the living room to repla…
Bang & Olufsen for the ignorant or for the connoisseur?
in General Discussion & Questions · May 25, 2009 09:47Peter - sadly I agree with you. A little while back i got rid of my BV4-65, 4*BL8000, BS9000 and a range of other bits - this decision taken after 15 years of adoring everything B&O. I now have a pioneer kuro 60" and som…
103-inch BeoVision 4 introduced - with cool video
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 28, 2009 10:53I think the stand turns what could be an ugly industrial panel into something quite intriguing. I was convinced that I would hate the bv4-103 and had a lukewarm reaction when I saw the first photo - when I saw it in acti…
103-inch BeoVision 4 introduced - with cool video
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 28, 2009 07:16One of my all time most loved products, the BS9000, could have done the same job designed as one of those horrible multi-cd players popular in the 80s. The beauty for me of the this product was the fusing of amazing mech…
103-inch BeoVision 4 introduced - with cool video
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 28, 2009 05:52I think it is fantastic too - B&O magic. Really hope b&o bring out a 65" version - would then be really tempted
103-inch BeoVision 4 introduced - with cool video
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 19, 2009 15:35I didn't believe for a moment that I would like this monster but I find the design (stand & speaker) interesting and appealing. It would be good news if they made the 65 inch with this stand/speaker - this would then put…

Bang & Olufsen goes OLED
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 17, 2009 18:15Simon - thanks for your advice, it confirms my thoughts. Sadly this store almost put me off B&O. I have no desire to use this forum to judge dealers but the dismissive attitude and serious lack of product knowledge I hav…
Bang & Olufsen goes OLED
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 17, 2009 17:21There seems to be more confusion than usual with dealers in terms of new products - I was told last week by my dealer (Knightsbridge main dealer) that the BC7-55 would be out by Sept of this year and the BV9 would stop b…
Top 3 products in the current range?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2009 19:12Mine are: BL5 BL9 BV5 The current BV range, for me, don't even make it into the top 10
Price drop for Bang&Olufsen BeoVisions
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2009 19:03I understand the concept of 'magic' and the fact that B&O products have, for me, gone well beyond a piece of functional kit to something that gives real and sustained enjoyment - and I am willing to pay for the magic. I …
B&O UK closed?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 7, 2009 13:44Interesting - I walk past my local B&O dealer (Brompton Rd, Knightsbridge) most days and up until Christmas there was usually one or two people browsing - for Jan and first part of Feb, I have not seen a single person in…
Panasonic TH50PF11
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 17, 2009 18:16It is just out in the UK and it got me thinking - 65 inch version is £4000 and the B&O version £11500 - just amazing. I know that there is now more to the B&O screen but £7500 more? I don't wish to restart the price deba…
is a beovision 5 a good trade up from an avant dvd
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 4, 2009 03:36I think it is the most beautiful TVs B&O have ever made so would go for one - when you think how long it is off, great looks are important.
Bang & Olufsen sees FY loss on weak pre-Xmas sales
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 20, 2008 17:27Hi - I for many years have been a very serious B&O fan and their products have connected emotionally with me like no other - I remember the magic in July 1998 when I spent my first evening with my brand new BS9000 - and …
Beo 5 or Logitech Harmony?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 15, 2008 09:45I totally agree in relation to the beo5 - having now used it for 5 months, I am back with the beo 4. I tried a harmony 1000 as well but once you have gone past the wow factor, it is nowhere need as easy or satisfying to …
