[quote user="timhanna"] To make everyone's life easier, especially moxxey's, Ill bring a van and collect them all at once. This way you just need to deal with me ;) [/quote] How about the BL5s and BV7-40 for £3800? My address is forthcoming...

[quote user="timhanna"] I dont know about you guys, but during my typical day after work, or in the weekend, my TV never stay on for longer than 15mins [/quote] I think that's an exception. Most people watch more TV than that. BTW I did buy a pair of BL5s. Out of all the B&O equipment I have, they are likely to be the first to go for

[quote user="Peter2"] As always it is down to supply and demand - if people are prepared to sell for those prices, no dealer will offer more. If no one sells, then a dealer may be prepared to offer more. [/quote] Other way around Peter. It's to do with demand from end users. Problem with dealers in this recession is that they don't

Have you ever thought that most broadcasters can't 'afford' or justify moving to HD, because so many people are still using CRTs? Who breaks this cycle? Sky had 1 million HD customers, but it's still only a small fraction of the number of TV sets in the UK. I doubt broadcasters would ditch SD and move over to HD in a hurry as it costs

[quote user="j0hnbarker"] Until the majority of TV is transmitted in HD, exactly what is the point of a HD TV? People are already talking about upgrading to later versions of HD sets, yet the majority of broadcasts are SD. Why? Why? Why? Do you just want to watch DVDs through third party DVD players? Whilst we're at it - how chavvy are

A good CRT will always beat most modern LCD/plasmas. However, bear in mind that a CRT will only go up to 32". That's now not large enough for most people, who demand 40/50/65" and so on. This is the main benefit from a flatpanel. The other benefit is the dimension - those new Samsungs are wafer thin. OLED is even thinner. Try doing that

[quote user="Peter2"] Trade - in value may be painful now, but only if you opt in to the upgrade game :) [/quote] But the whole point in B&O was that it kept an excellent trade-in value. I guess I'm the only one that is suprised that the trade-in value of a 1-year-old MKIII BV7-40 shouldn't be only £1900 :)

[quote user="Puncher"] Hence my comment about pre-owned TV prices for outdated technology - the days of buying a 5 year old TV and expecting another 5 years from it have long since gone, flat panel TV's are now commodity items regardless of the party frock it's dressed in. [/quote] I agree and disagree. I only disagree as the type

[quote user="JoC"] I was talking to my dealer, and to get swap out the MKIII for the MKIV I would have to pay in the region of approx £3.5k [/quote] Heard back from my dealer who said my upgrade is going to be closer to £4K on top of the traded-in BV7-40 MKIII and this is *before* the price increase on the 8th. This means a dealer
