The BL7.1 is really a great speaker, and if the soundstage would be a bit wider, it would be perfect for music.
that's right. I thought about cutting mine into 2, but my wife would not let me do it...

If you ever decide to do it, let me know how it sounds :-)

Does an Avant sound better than a MX 7000 ?

I'm waiting for delivery of the Avant and i'm curious if the sound is very different from my MX 7000.

My living-room is quite a large open space and, even after all those years, i'm impressed by

the warm and powerfull sound of the MX 7000

My fist B&O TV was a LX2802 and I thought it must be the best sounding TV set ever produced and no other set in the world could sound better - hmmmm now I have three sets with better sound (in this order): BV1, AV5, BV7 with BL7.1.

The BL7.1 is really a great speaker, and if the soundstage would be a bit wider, it would be perfect for music.

in the last couple of years ive owned a few tvs as ive slowly been able to afford the next model up,
i had the mx4000 with some cx100s which was at the time better than any hi-fi id ever owned,
i cant remember the mx5000 so im guessing was nothing new by then,
the mx7000 actice speakers blew me away and to this day i wish id kept it
av9000 pretty useless without extra speakers
i currently have the bv3 32 and the rf avant 32, worth every penny for sound alone, for the money a better buy than most speakers as your getting fantastic picture to match,
jay

Jay, which sounds better the BV3 or the Avant?

i have a BV7-32 with BL7.1. Huge sound. Was really impressive at the beginning and used it a lot as only speaker, even for music. I think there is no better sound to a tv than with BL7

I use my BV3-32 as center speaker with 4 BL3 and a BL2, not was I have planed as I returned my old Bv7-32 a year ago (did not work as expected).

But I have to say not to bad! I am impressed again and again by the sound performance of the Bv3. When I checked out the BS3 at home, I connected a BL7.4 an a BL3 as center instead, this added much more clearity to the sound.

What did the loudspeaker guy in Struer said? B&O builds loudspeaker with a display attached

My MX7000 sounds a lot better than the MX5500, presumably because of the Active speakers. I've got a Beolab 3500 in the same room as the 7000, and the TV sounds a lot better than the link speaker, it has a better low frequency response. I used to have an LX2800, and guests were often surprised at the quality (and level) of sound that produced.

For about 6 months I played my 5500 system through my Avant and was not dissapointed... not the same bass as my M100's but still plenty of ooompf. I wonder if B&O should add that to their list

I prefer LX to MX sound wise.

They are the only TVs I know enough about to make a comparison.

I think that the speakers in my LX 6000 performs just as good as any normal stereo like Sony, when it comes to sound reproduction.

There have been numerous posts talking about the difference between different speakers in the range. Which sound better than others, but I cannot remeber a thread where members have discussed the sound difference of different B&O TV's. Myself I have no external speakers connected to my setup of a BS3000 and BV3-32. Wonderd if any other members did the same, or their thoughts on different models sound capabilities.
