in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 10, 2020 22:43Rob - would you happen to know what size screws those are? I only had a 5mm hex screw driver and that was too large....thx
beovision 11-55 motorized stand installation
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 10, 2020 14:17Rob thanks very much - it was a mystery what those screws were there for. The dealer has not been particularly helpful in pointing this out unfortunately. I should have watched when the TV was first installed. Millemisse…
beovision 11-55 motorized stand installation
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 9, 2020 22:00If you know how to - meaning is it just the four screws or is there something else? I have the foam inserts for the bottom but not sure if that would keep the TV upright. I will ask the dealer for transport feet and see …
beovision 11-55 motorized stand installation
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 9, 2020 18:40I was looking to either have B&O or my movers dismount and then re-install my TV, as I prepare for an upcoming move. I see that the TV is connected to the motorized stand via four screws. Is it as simple as unscrewing th…

Moving Beolab 1 speakers
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 6, 2020 23:20I am moving at the end of the month and I have two massive BL-1 speakers. Unfortunately I must have discarded the boxes many years ago. Would anyone happen to have boxes for these available (I am in New York)? Alternativ…
New product No.2: due 2019-09-09
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 11, 2019 17:08Being in NY and having a view of the Chrysler building from my new apartment, it reminds me of the colors of the top of the building during the day. Or perhaps in general buildings at the lower levels being quite dirty f…
Used Beovision 11-46, looking for opinions please
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 10, 2018 18:16I bought the BV11 when it first came out. Agree with all previous comments. - MK2 for the WISA would be nice as you may want to add a BL19 subwoofer, which makes a big difference. Alternatively if you see a great deal on…
Buying advice, 46 or 55 BV11
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 20, 2018 22:05A bit late in responding - but yes the 55 is the way to go. I had he same space issue but the 55 is so much more cinematic than the 46. In terms of versions, if you go for MK1 just check closely that there are no gaps in…
Apple TV with 11-46 & V1-32
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 30, 2018 17:16I have an 11-55 and the ATV 4 does not fit. Even the ATV 3 was very tight with the cable and the TV back panel kept popping out. I chose to just put the ATV behind the TV with velcro, and later just sitting on a shelf be…
Beosound 9000 mark 1
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 2, 2018 16:57I would stay away from a MK1 given the issue of finding replacement parts for the laser. And my feeling is if the laser has not failed yet it will. I would look for MK2 or MK3 with new laser. If you still want to move ah…
Films for testing screen quality
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 6, 2018 19:29For white on black try Kubrick's 2001 on BR. The first scene of the white space craft moving against a pitch black sky provides a good test of ghosting. Unfortunately the BV11 did not do so well there.
BeoVision Recommendation
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 4, 2018 16:48I would also go with the BV11 - quite a bit better than the BV10 in terms of screen, sound and overall technology. The BV11-40 or 11-46 should be a bargain now. I am envious of the used market in Germany. Also lots of in…
Considering buying B&O speakers/system
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 1, 2018 19:54If you could get a nicely priced used pair of BL5s it will far surpass any of the speakers you mentioned. But if you were happy with the BL18s, I would recommend adding a BL19 and you will have a very nice sounding syste…
Amazon Alexa and the question: How you listen to music today
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 30, 2018 22:58I have 200 records and 300+ CDs so my primary way of listening is via my hifi system (McIntosh/BS900/BL1s) or connected headphones. It took me a while to get used to get up and change sides of a record (had not done that…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 28, 2018 03:43Great thanks Micheal....I guess future proofing on the PS4 side in case at some future time I buy second TV.
Anyone want to start a B&O Museum?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 27, 2018 22:33I believe i came across his web site a couple of years ago, but did not realize (from the auction pictures) it was so extensive. My favourite B&O piece is the Hyperbo 5 RG Steel, which seems there is only one in existenc…
BV11-55 and Playstation 4 PRO
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 27, 2018 21:26I am contemplating buying a PS4 PRO and connecting to the BV11-55. I know there is game mode on the 11-55, but any feedback on how well the TV would support gaming particularly with a PS4 PRO (or just PS4)? Or is the tec…
BeoLab 6000 or pair of Beoplay s3's
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 25, 2018 17:11Agree with Steve - BL6000 are beautiful but I always found the sound quality poor. BL8000s would be a better choice, though i have not heard the S3s.
