[quote user="9 LEE"] We're very lucky to have that 'core' of people - they make the site what it is.. [/quote] Totally agree. I just thought it might be more wise to take out the "staff" from the votes? For example, on our IT forums, admin and moderators can't enter competitions, can't vote, can't be voted

[quote user="Seanie_230"] most of the pre owned companys will sell you a screen only.. [/quote] And any B&O dealer. Look at a dealers pricing and the BV7-40 is listed as a screen. All the stands/speakers are priced separately. It's always been that way. Remember when you get a panel from your dealer you always receive the latest panel

[quote user="Seanie_230"] The TV upgrade is more of a swap with a pre owned company.... [/quote] Be careful though - I've had 3 x MKIV's so far and the first two (the early) editions alway crashed with a Sky HD box. This current one is from Jan 2010 and has been fine. This version has an updated panel, too, compared to the first MKIV

[quote user="chris"] Has anyone tried buying a 7-40 and then upgrading it by just changing the screen?. IE the stand and say the beolab2 speaker remained, and a new screen fitted. [/quote] That's exactly what we do! Why would you replace the stand with the same stand? :)

[quote user="Seanie_230"] I like to keep up to date with the current technology as best as possible without needing to break the bank every year. [/quote] What new technology? There's almost nothing new in the MKIV apart from a 100Hz screen! Plus SD on the MKIV was worse than the MKIII - I deifinitely noticed a difference. Even if the

Just reading through this thread. It's the same five core people each year! It's like a moderator love-in :) Anyway, congrats to all!

[quote user="Seanie_230"] Panning i woudl describe as the image juddering when the image is fast moving. [/quote] I didn't see any difference between my MKIII and MKIV in regards to panning. The MKIII issues were fixed in sw and they are the same as the MKIV. Personally, I couldn't recommend a MKIII to MKIV upgrade. The differences

[quote user="afcintra"] A sales person told me at a B&O store in Canada that I should not use a BL11 together with BL3s. According to him the BL11 should be used only with less potent speakers. Is his comment correct? [/quote] I was told the same thing by a UK sales person. He said "the BL11 isn't designed to be used with the

[quote user="Seanie_230"] One of my biggest problems with the MK3 is the panning on the display.. [/quote] I thought that was fixed with a sw update? It was on my MK3? I don't really see much of a difference panning between the MK3 and the MK4. I don't really know if I'd upgrade to the MK5 - it's not that much better. Perhaps

[quote user="Peter "] The BV10 has the better picture and the BV8 the better sound. The BV10 just lacks depth to the sound - very detailed but no body. A characteristic of very slim sets I am afraid. [/quote] Peter, a question: does the BL11 improve the sound on the BV10?
