You mean like a volkswagen with a tarted up shell ? Yes , I agree.

Money isn't the issue , a product that looks so technically advanced from the outside while being quite literally stoneage inside is. Once you delve into the specs , and on a tv they really ARE important , b&o products don't come off too well imo. No led backlighting in a 7-40 for example ? Only 2 spare hdmi's , no built in Freeview

The way they're going , I don't give B&O long . Their prices are one problem but their product limitations don't help either. One of my friends was thinking of buying a pair of beolab 3's for his samsung tv but they only connect in stereo and require a b & o tv to work in surround , a massive outlay , but after doing a bit of

3.2.2 to 4.2.1 on iPad costs Zero , NOTHING , zilch & transforms the product massively , making it more than a match for a notebook or even a laptop in many circumstances. What B&O product can match THAT ?

So that's what the dvb module on hdmi 2 is for , I wondered what that was all about. Why on earth couldn't they fit it onto the motherboard , looks like an afterthought to me , using up a precious hdmi port.

I agree , the 7 ticks all the boxes for me too. Although the 55 is just TOO big imo , the 40 is just right. I think the problem with a screen the seize of the 55 is it really shows up all imperfections in source and knowing the low bit rate of sd tv , particularly in the UK , that's a downer. The only real problem I have with the 7 is the lack of

The visible adjustments are probably just visionclear at work , the photo sensor changes contrast and brightness on the fly. It can be quite disconcerting when you first see it at work. Personally if I blew £12k on a tv I'd want it to be perfect.

I've got 3 bravias dotted around the house and they've all been amazingly reliable and impressive performers , bno could certainly learn a thing or two from sony imo.

How much is a 7-55 nowadays ?
