Rather than buy a new center speaker for my soon to be delivered BV 7 40 inch i am keeping my 7.1 speaker from my 32 inch BV 7.  On the selection process for the center speaker during setup can you select a 7.1 rather than a 7.2 or the rest of the beolab range.  Thank you.   

I can't say either way, but it shouldn't matter from a sonic point of view as the two are pretty similar. I can't say I would want a 7.1 mounted underneath a 7-40 visually though.

The main reason for the 7.1 was money.  I had enough for the tv and not a new center speaker but visually i have seen it on the STB brackets webiste and i think it looks ok.  Tried to put the picture on the site but not sure how to attach a picture to posts.  Thank you for your advice.

 

7-2. That's what I have got and its superb. That's all you need to know. Good night...

Happy new year...

 

Right. The speakers are sonically the same, just spaced differently to accommodate different screen sizes. 

I personally would have taken your 7.1 on a trade to make sure you got the whole enchilada. 

I have a BV7 MK3 with a 7.1 mounted underneath, and it preforms equally to the 7.2 only difference is the size.

Glad you agree i have not got the knack yet of putting a picture on this forum but when the tv is fitted i will endeavor to show to all.  The only place i have seen it is on the STB site.  I personally think is will look more uniform as i always thought that the speaker sticking out the sides looked slightly odd but still stunning.

Thanks all for your views
