  • Re: Lower a BeoVision 10-40 on motorised base

    Hey, sounds like a good idea! No cutting to the stand itself - I like it. My only concern would be the tilt mechanism. The tilt is not motorised and holds its angle by friction. Adding spacer bars might disrupt the balance so the angle won't hold. Unless it can be locked into place. Leo

  • Re: Lower a BeoVision 10-40 on motorised base

    B&O should have made the height of the floor stand adjustable in the first place, or offered two height options. Both heights satisfy different people and look good. I emailed Gavin Sykes at STB last November and here was his response: "We will probably not make a lower floor stand, B&O would not like us to play with their latest concept

  • Re: Playing DVDs and Bluray from PC ti TV whireless

    Sorry to veer slightly away from your question, but I've noticed that a DVD played on my PC then viewed on the TV via HDMI looks considerably worse than the DVD played from my PS3. Perhaps the upscaling/picture circuitry on the PS3 is much better than the one on the PC. Audio though sounds the same as it's all digital. Leo

  • BeoSound 3 aux input

    Hi everyone, I know the answer is most probably "no", but I couldn't help ask the question. The BS3 has not aux input, but has SD card slot. Does any company make an audio-jack-to-SD-card adapter? The idea is simple: the adapter takes whatever input is coming through, converts it on-the-fly to a psuedo audio file that the end device then

  • Re: What was your first B&O purchase and why did you purchase?

    My father is quite an audio aficionado and I grew up with Quads and B&O's in the house. My first purchase was a BeoSound 2000 (aka Century) CD/tape/radio from the B&O shop in Palo Alto, CA. It was 1997 and I brought it over to New Hampshire where I was attending boarding school. As teenagers we were all into bass at the time so I had the

  • Re: BeoVision 10 arrives in North America!

    Thanks! The TV doesn't have motorized tilt. The internal speakers, although good in their own right, can't compare with the BL 9's. When switching from Speaker 1 to Speaker 2, a major "timbre" difference can be heard (although timbre isn't really the right word, it was the first that popped into my head). The internal speakers

  • Re: Beovision 10 and HDMI connections

    In North America, BV 10's have three HDMI ports available. My dealer says it is due to something that is standard in European BV 10's that is removed from North American models. Leo

  • Re: IS B&O worth the money???

    Nice. My daily driver has been an Alfa 164 since 2001. The car itself is 19 years old. A new V6 Camry can outrun and probably even outhandle the 164, but as you said, the feeling is what counts. Leo

  • Re: IS B&O worth the money???

    According to another thread, the clouding issues eliminated on the 46" are explained as being due to a different LED backlight system: lighting from two sides of the screen only instead of all four. No one mentioned anything about cooling. Maybe both your dealer and the other posters are correct, and it's a combination of the two enhancements

  • BeoVision 10 arrives in North America!

    After a one week delay due to the Iceland volcano ash cloud, the first customer shipments of the BV10 finally arrived on our shores. Mine was delivered on Friday. My old BV8 has its new home in the bedroom, and the installer set up a link system between the TV's and the Ouverture. To be able to listen to music from the same source simultaneously
