Re: Avant new software update available

There's an update for the BV11 as well. No notes for that update neither. I haven't noticed anything new since the update.

Re: Beovision Avant 55 and UHD bluray specs

I currently have a mk1 BV11-55 and would be very very interested in upgrading of a new BV11 mk came with 4K and HDR with internal 4K decoding for Netflix

Re: Beovision Avant 55 and UHD bluray specs

[quote user="Millemissen"] I doubt, that it will be an updated/upgraded Avant. Probably a new tv of some kind. We will have to wait to see, what comes from Struer. In my opinion HDR is more important than more pixels/4K. MM There is a tv - and there is a BV. [/quote] Wouldn't it make more sense to update the avant to a mk2 with HDR, just like the BV7-55 got 3D in mk2. Would be weird to have a 4K tv without HDR next year or two no?

Re: Use 2 Beoplay S8 in place of beolab 14 and save £800?

[quote user="Millemissen"] Thanks! Where are the advantages (compared to the BL11) - with music or movies, or with both? Do you use different settings for music respectively movies? MM There is a tv - and there is a BV. [/quote] The main advantage is that you really feel the bass in movies. The BL11 was in my view too weak and it it was seldom I noticed it during movies (this may also be a testament to the quality of the built in speakers of BV11). I haven't tried it with much music

Just the sub and internal speakers in BV11

I have the BL14 sub only connected to my BV11 and it's great for movies. Big step up from the BL11. I live in an apartment so the BL14 is perfect for that

Wow, here in Sweden the price of the 4.1 BL14 is essentially the same as 2 S8

Doesn't 2 S8 systems cost the same as 1 BL14.1?

Re: A2 software update problems - anyone sorted this out yet?

Just updated. No problems updating at all. Played a few songs and can't notice any difference soundwise. Only have 1 so can't test the "stereo" option.

Re: B&O annual report released

[quote user="Playdrv4me"] *Sigh*. I have a feeling that everyone on this forum probably hates me and my long opinions by now. But *aside* from our many good friends here who own and operate boutiques or work for B&O, I honestly wouldn't care if the company as it is now, ceased to exist today. Bang and Olufsen have a proud history, but it was a history that was based in fine Danish craftsmanship *and* the burgeoning realm of audio and later video HiFi and lifestyle product. But.
