moxxey: Beolab: But go and take a look at the new BV7-32 MK III High Glare at your dealer.. I think he can make a good price for you if you trade in the old BV7... As I mentioned, my dealer says this (new BV7-32 'high glare') doesn't exist. I think you might have been mistaken. There is no new BV7-32 with improved contrast ratio. I've

You need a standard white and red RCA cable in both ends to connect your Bs 3200 Aux input... Regards

moxxey: Beolab: Have you tried to increase the master contrast (Backlight contrast) in the service menu then? Hm, it must be the DVD or the panel then.. Did they change panel to the MK III panel when you had it in for service? Disclaimer for my local dealer who reads these forums: I don't use the service menu. Yes, I'm sure it's the DVD

355f: All that matters in the end is that you like your BV7 and feel it was a good thing to acquire. continuing debates about whats'better' does nothing for the amicable rapport that exists here- so I rest my case! Now contrast ratios! what is it on the bv9 compared to BV7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The new Bv7 has 2000:1 in contrast ratio

Beonic Man i´m a Virgo in fact.. ;) Born in 14 of September 1982. And i am addicted to design and High End technology since i was 13 years old...= B&o =) If i should answer the BV5 vs BV7 MK III question you asked, i must say that BV7 do circles around the BV5 and smiles down on the old "Ikon"... The image quality are far ahead the

And i don´t like the colors on a plasma.. 355f Take a look on the Bv7 Mk III and feel free to compare it with Bv9... Then you can comeback and say that the Bv7 are just for games and Hi def... The DVD and SDTV are just as good as the Bv9 i think...! (Both got BS3 engine) I can buy a Bv9 any day in the week if i feel to, but honestly i don´t

moxxey: Beolab, I've read these forums long enough to understand all about the movie mode. It's definitely off. I've been off since I bought the TV in 2004 :) Believe me, a DVD through the DVD player is much darker than via Sky HD and that's nothing to do with a 'movie mode'. Backlight is on, I've increased the brightness

355f: Actually have you noticed that playing with brightness on an lcd actually does very little? thats the technology! I think you are a bit to hard now 355f.. Have you even seen the new Bv 7-40 Mk lll in real life? Yes it is a cheap LCD inside, but it gives the BV9 a good match i can truly say... And if you are playing with the brightness it does

moxxey: Although this a good option, it's definitely not a MKIII replacement - the big difference is the BS3-based chassis and that the DVD upscales the source. The worst thing about my MKI BV7 is that DVDs are so dark and gloomy, they are difficult to watch. The same film through Sky or BBC HD is far brighter, which means it's definitely a

Razlaw: In some ways I prefer the 7 and in some ways the 9 with 720p. In some scenes I could see more background detail in dark areas on the 7 than the 9. However, in some ways the 9 appeared to have a more natural appearance to the colors. Unfortunately the dealer is 3 hours away. I want to spend some more time watching both before spending such a
