New products in the store, Harmony and Stage
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 30, 2019 00:15I popped into B&O Windsor on Friday and had a quick listen to the stage. For the size it was pretty impressive, however, it does sound like a unit with small bass drivers producing bass though cleaver design, rather than…
New products in the store, Harmony and Stage
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 23, 2019 22:57I have to say, I was really looking forward to the new Stage. However, I can't believe they have not put a sub out on it. I guess I need to try one at home, but I have never got really good results without a sub on any s…

Bv8-40: how do I turn film mode off? Strange service menu
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 20, 2019 14:31I have to say, I thought the image was pretty poor out of the box on the Beovision 8, same with many ofo really is worth having a play, just right down or take pics of the settings before you change anything so you can g…
Beovision 8 40 - How to adjust light sensor, white balance and get rid of the soap opera effect.
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 25, 2018 13:41Sorry, I wasn't ignoring you, I haven't been around for the last couple of weeks as I sold my TV. I didn't take a pic of the firmware version. What's different?

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 28, 2018 22:31It maybe the backlight adjustment that is causing issues in darker areas?

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 28, 2018 22:29I would leave the white point adjustment for now. Try turning off the Light Sensor, turn Peaking down to 0 in the scaler menu and see how that is. Then do things one at a time. Do remember to take pics before you make ad…

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 20, 2018 17:21This is my set now properly calibrated. I have now turned the light sensor back on. This was after realising the ADAPTIVE BACKLIGHT settings also control the range the back light works in, well I knew that, but what I di…

Used Beovision 11-46, looking for opinions please
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 12, 2018 16:45It is interesting reading this thread as I had been trying to do a deal on a 11-40 recently, but the owner has decided he is sticking with it. Reading the reviews and the calibrated results it is actually a really, reall…
Flash your B&O - new thread!
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 10, 2018 08:09Thanks. Think I have done a deal on a Beovision 11. It is a bit less than he wanted for it but has sort of agreed a price that suits me.

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 9, 2018 13:02Thought I better take a pic on my Beovision 8 before it gets upgraded. A bit of a contrast in style to the TV room...

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 9, 2018 12:38I still think it is better with the auto sensor off. It doesn't actually seem to dim the backlight, it just adjust contrast, colour and brightness. So you lose overall luminance but don't gain better blacks, which is sor…

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 6, 2018 16:45Oh OK. What I said was… I haven’t actually changed that much now. Once I had changed the Picture Offsets I actually put everything else back to where it was originally, with the exception of leaving Film Mode to Off. And…

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 6, 2018 10:25I typed out a long reply and it was lost. Once I get a coloromieter I will adjust probably for gamma and greyscale and post up my settings. Can we not attach images? It said it was posting and then.....nothing.

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 5, 2018 20:13OK, so sorted out the backlight issue. Under the service menu-monitor-picture adjustment menu you have Picture Offsets. These adjust how the brightness, contrast and colour reacts to the light sensor. I now have contrast…

in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 3, 2018 11:27Adjusting the offset for RGB under the White Point Adjustments makes quite a bit of difference to this set in the middle ire areas, more so than many displays. Changing RGB values by 5 points can make a difference, tryin…

in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 30, 2018 23:46I'm not sure what you mean? How do I know what settings to adjust? I have just been playing with the settings, I don't have a colorimeter anymore to test to see how accurate it is as I sold mine a while back, but I have …
