Beocom 5 - its a great product (no really)
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 8, 2011 07:01After one of my 10 year old Beocom 6000's was getting a bit flake-y, and needing something that I could use to dial into meetings and mute the microphone (without the annoying beep every few seconds that the old 6000's d…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 14, 2011 08:27Yes - please tell of the fix. If it's a visit to the local electrical repair shop for standard parts to be changed then I'll give it a go. Cheers
LC2 appears to be toast - recommendations for 3rd party equivalents ?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 13, 2011 03:07After failure of 1 of my two LC2's (dead even after changing the fuse) I'm on the lookout for a 3rd party equivalent. I don't want to have to program it by computer - I'm aiming for the simplicity of the Lc2, wire it in …

in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 27, 2011 04:10One other thing - why don't b&o give more info as to whats in the update? It would give people an opportunity to decide whether they want to chance an update ... I realize that there are many countries they operate on - …
New DVB-HD dowload on B & O page
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 27, 2011 04:06Very happy with this update !! It fixed my problem where I couldn't rescan without having channels in two separate groups ( any single groups the tv would scan had either abc numbered wrong, or channel 7 upwards wrong). …

in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 7, 2011 06:54As a newbie to the BV7-40 MK3 with DVB-HD, do you have control over what channels are in which groups ? For a reason that seemed logical at the time I reset all channel data - and now i can't get a single channel group t…
BV7-40 MK3 & Blue ray upgrade
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 10, 2010 20:03Any one gone through adding blue ray post-purchase ? Any pit falls (apart from price!) from the experience... I'm trying for a 'no attached boxes' around the TV - so its an internal upgrade or external blu-ray but attach…
Lab 6000 & BV7-40 Mk3 - Bass interference sound
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 10, 2010 19:59I've recently switched my Avant to a BV7-40 Mk3 and therefore moved my Lab 6000's across. With the correct speaker type selected on the BV7 - as well as reduced bass and low speaker level - there is still an "interferenc…
Apple TV and BV7 IR lead
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 12, 2010 07:26I've just setup a Bv7-40 Mk3 & Apple TV (black), the IR lead pretty much works anywhere along the front of the apple tv. I haven't taped it in place - its just lying in front of the box. I've been meaning to attach the a…
Advice regarding 7-32 or 7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 11, 2010 07:15I was looking at the same two - except in my case a used 7-40 vs a new 7-32. Our Lounge isn't huge so we didn't want a domineering tv. We got a used mk3 bv7-40 on a low stand with the 7.1 speaker. It really does diminish…
Beovision 8-40 or 7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 6, 2010 04:37I've recently upgraded from a 28" Avant to a 7-40 - and the BV8 was never an option for me, the design just isn't special enough. If a TV's going to be around for a few years it needs to needs to look good - the BV8 look…
The buying experience ... a 7-32 vs 7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 21, 2010 08:59Well I had to add that I plumped for a BV7-40 Mk3. Primarily because of the Beosystem 3 and picture quality. I have it on the low stand to disguise its size (it replaced a Avant 28"). I have to say I love it - the design…

The buying experience ... a 7-32 vs 7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 6, 2010 08:24Still looking at 7-32 vs 7-40. The room size would suit a 7-32 - I have a Avant-28 currently. Others comments have indicated that a 7-32 image cannot be compared with a 7-40/7-55. So I think to clinch the deal I need to …
