Sorry - not a great weekend - one of my cancer patients died at 3.00am on Sunday morning so I was up for some of the night! Recuperative powers not as good these days! Still catching up! Report will follow. Picture is excellent.

Peter :

Coming tomorrow - I don't blame Newcastle - they were promised it on Tuesday but it never arrived. Their communication has been exemplary and they were willing to do anything to get it delivered. Unfortunately I am working in the morning but hopefully my wife will sort them out! I should be back to make sure it works! I haven't moved anything yet anyway!!

So Peter I was reading your post on the Welcome Beovision7-55 thread, did you mean your BV 10 was delayed until after Christmas?

thavn:

Mine has been delayed too. It will be delivered at my house the 11. or 12. of Desember. In time before Christmas anyway!

One question:

The TV is designed to hang on a wall, and my wife is very keen on wall mounting. However, what height is recommended? It looks better on the wall when it is in line with other paintings, but then the picture will be too high when you are watching TV. My B&O dealer recommends 100cm height at the bottom of the picture. Any thoughts about this? I still have a few days to decide...

Personally I don't think that height on the wall is a great issue. There's always been a view that TV's should be more or less at eye level when you are sitting down, and putting an old CRT high up was never an option (except for BV1's on stands!)

If you've got a large room it won't make much difference if you have to raise your eyes a few degrees from horizontal, so if your normally sat at some distance from the screen just put it at a height that looks good alongside your artwork.

If you've got to sit up close then maybe you've got to keep it low (but maybe you shouldn't be going for a 40" screen in that case!

Peter :

Delayed! Not in the country yet but as soon as it is, it will be winging its way to me. B&O of Newcastle were very apologetic and will fit it as soon as possible! No pictures just yet then!

I hope you get yours soon. I saw my the Beovision 10 for the first time today at my dealer. It's gorgeous! I will buy one for sure as soon as I have moved to a bigger apartment next year.

Oh for all those that get the B&O stand alone BV10 marketing printed blurb I like the way it folds out to a life size picture of the BV10 - v handy to let you decide where it should go!!

Floorstand. I don't really have a suitable wall! Too much furniture and bookcases!
