mhoutman: koning: What about the connextions still dvi? (ja) yes seems so be, but we connected through ps component av which is fine for us Exactly. You could connect an external (ie. Sky) box via DVI and the PS3 via component. It's a shame B&O are spending more time working on making their TVs white, when the number 1 priority ought to be to

355f: The individuals I know that used to have a house full of B&O and can still afford to do so- will not buy the new products because of the poor price/performance ratio and the fact that they can buy each new variant of a pioneer kuro for 3 years and still have change! Correct. My 40+ year old landlords are good examples. They have a high disposable

I'd be surprised. I used to live in Edinburgh and there's a lot of disposable income around there. The Scottish government is based there, financial capital of Scotland etc etc. Maybe some of the smaller units may close, but I doubt Edinburgh and Glasgow, surely? Why would B&O need a store in, say, the small town of Yarm (no-one ever is

Alex: The 7-40 will be quite a step up For HD pictures, for sure. For SD-based football and other fast moving SD content, it could be a step down!! As I say above, a new BV7-32 will show BBC1 Match of the Day content or Sky Football First better than my BV7-40 MKIII. The BV7-40 MKIII comes in to it's own when using the Playstation 3 or, better,

Dave: Does everyone hate the BV7 -32? If the price isn't considered, i'm really fond of this product, the proportions are beautiful I agree Dave. I used to own a BV7-32 MKI and, when the BV7-40 MKIII arrived, it seemed huge. Too big. Used to it now, but the size of the BV7-32 did seem to suit the design. I borrowed a BV7-32 MKII for a while

Razlaw: Debating a topic is one thing, personal attacks such as your first sentence are another. Razlaw. I think you take things way too personally. If you regard that as an 'attack', gawd help us. The problem is Razlaw is that your passion seems to be directed at the wrong people. We buy B&O. We like B&O. We don't need to be told

Affineur: B&O are not marketing to "average" consumers, they are marketing primarily to design-centric audio-video enthusiasts Completely disagree. Firstly B&O are on the high street. They advertise in 'average' magazines such as Esquire, Men's Health and so on, in the UK. Secondly, enthusiasts tend NOT to consider B&O

Razlaw: A BV7 is $9450. Please direct me to a $945 40 in Sony that includes a free DVD player (whatever quality, even a cheap one) and a 7 channel integrated surround processor and the ability to run a projector if decided? If you'd bothered to read and understand what I was saying, you'd come to the same conclusion. The problem is that most

Razlaw: We can debate specifications all day and everybody wants different specifications. Sure the B and O is still more....it is a niche market luxury brand at a premium price, always has been, always will be, hopefully. The problem isn't us Razlaw. We're still buying B&O kit. You're trying to convince the wrong people. You need to

Razlaw: Had the BV7 been available at the same time as the Avant is it really expected they would sell for the same price. I'm not so sure. If these technologies had been available, as the Avant was the premier TV from B&O at the time of production, they would have been implemented in to the TV. The price wouldn't have increased. Why would
