Hello, I'm considering a BV5 HD to replace ny DVD Avant which is the hub TV in my house. Could anybody let me know if it is a good set too buy or not? I will be looking for the last of the line model. I appreciate that the PQ will not be up to modern standards but would the TV make a good stop gap before I could afford a used BV9? Cheers, David.

Hello David, I had the same idea but came up with a BV5 connected to a BS3. This gave me more flexibility and is more future proof. I even prefer the looks over the BV9. If you're interested, you can read this: http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/thread/82029.aspx

Have just read the post, I think it would be too much work for me to do. I havn't got that much spare time on my hands,well done though. If anybody with a HD BV5 can share their thoughts it would be great to know what you think of it. Cheers, David.

Or are they that bad people don't want to admit to owning one? ;-)

Hi David, I am in a simoular position. I wanted to go for the BV 7-40 MK III. Now I have the chance to buy a BV 5 MK III from August 2004. The problem is that the seller claims it is HD-ready but that I am not certain it is. (I thought MK IV is the first HD -ready BV 5, can anyone confirm?) I have seen the picture of a HD-ready BV 5 and in my opinion it is a great picture (als on cable). So if the BV 5 that is offered to me is HD-ready I think I am going to buy it. Rob

Image quality on a HD BV5 is superb! Even though it's 720, it gives an image equal to or better than a lot of non-B&O 1080, and the only annoying bit is that you have to go DVI for the picture and scart for the sound from the HD box... Lee

Hello Lee, We only use Sky+ HD boxes in our house because we don't have a good enough aerial signal. Would the BV5 HD work well with the SKY+HD box? What model should we be looking at to get the best PQ? Cheers, David.
