BV4-50/Beosystem 1 to Beovision 9 Upgrade
I have a opportunity to upgrade from my BV4-50 D6 (not upgradable to DVI)/Beosystem 1 to a Beovision 9. The upgrade would cost me ~7500 USD out of pocket assuming I can sell the BV4 for $3500 and the Beosystem 1 for $1000. Does this sound like the right time to upgrade? What would be the advantages/disadvantages?
TIA Al

How do you get to the 7500 number? The BV9 is a 20K TV. If you can really upgrade for 7500 I would probably go for that giving that it will become more and more difficult to connect new equipment to your TV. JK

Re: BV4-50/Beosystem 1 to Beovision 9 Upgrade
Sometimes bargains can be found here in the US on B and O. I purchased my Beolab 9s at 60% of list price and recently saw a Beovision 9 in a B and O store for a 60% discount...i.e. could buy for 40% of list price.
Beovision 7-55 with Beolab 7-4, 9s and 4000s
Beovision 10-40 with Beolab 1s and 6000s
Beosound 1, 5, 2000, and 3000

I have never seen any B&O store discount more then 10 or 20% on demo products. Not worth. For 40 to 60% off I would buy quite few things as demo or customer returns or whatever it is. JK

Yes, sounds like a good deal. I love the integrated TVs like the Avant, BV5, BV9. I also think the flexibility of the BS3 with its connections would be nice, along with the built in speaker. You didn't mention what you are using for a center channel speaker. Planning to sell that as well? I'm with JK - find me a dealer with 40 to 60% off and I'd be a very poor man. But, I'd have a house full of B&O!

Definitely a good deal. The differences in picture are outstanding, you'll see a world of difference.

Re: BV4-50/Beosystem 1 to Beovision 9 Upgrade
If you are willing to part with $7,500, then just do it - not just for the improved picture, but perhaps above all the improved sound. The BeoSystem 3 is so good I had to part with my BeoLab 4000 - and replace them with BeoLab 3's - as surround speakers. You will get a lifelike picture on high quality channels (even SD), and the sound stage is just breathtaking. But, again, $7,500 is a lot of money compared to the great system you already have... I would do it. And I'm afraid you will regret it if you don't do it: If you have lived with the BeoVision 9, then there's no going back. Roger
