[quote user="erg4000"] There seems to be an issue with the picture quality of the Beosystem 3. I had the opportunity to test the Leica Pradovid D-1200 at home. I connected the projector in two different ways: - To the Beosystem 3 over DVI - To a MacBook Pro over DVI The Leica Pradovid showed an outstanding quality for digital pictures. But

[quote user="Razlaw"] Is it also possible to retrofit a BV7 MKIII? Does AST function once the extra RAM and internal components are fitted?

It's a RAM update necessary for the new AST and that's it! I have one in my store ... there's absolutely no difference besides the extra RAM and maybe some different internal components. Also, just as an FYI "older" units can be retrofitted.

It's just on a temporary promo in the US. At the end of May it goes back to normal pricing

Also, the BeoVision 7 MKIII from what I understand is actually in a switched voltage mode, which means the integrated power supply can handle 90V-240V without any kind

Bring your center speaker and the stand for the BeoVision 7 you currently have and purchase a BeoVision 7 TV under the promotional price. I would take whatever you can get for the MKII BV7 abroad and use that towards the purchase of the newer (and a little more global AND future proof) set. Thats a sub 5K idea ;)

Theres no difference except for a RAM upgrade. As far as I can tell the MKI units will be upgradeable.
