Bang & Olufsen 40" BeoVision 8 LCD Flat Panel Television - 1956346

The perfect balance

There are many abbreviations to keep track of when it comes to modern televisions. LCD, HDMI, DVB, Full HD… No wonder that many people prefer to remember just one: B&O. BeoVision 8 represents the perfect balance between tested technology and advanced features, between superior image and pure sound, and between inspired looks and easy operation.

The great wide screen

Both the television panel itself and the internal circuitry draw on the newest technology available, much of it unique to Bang & Olufsen. The automatic contrast plays a major role, ensuring that the screen emits abundant light to match the surrounding conditions and turning it back down as soon as you hit the room’s dimmer switch. New screen technology helps cut reflections to provide even more natural black levels. Finally, BeoVision 8 actually adapts the picture to the content you are watching – whether it is a DVD movie or digital or analogue TV signals. The overall goal is to provide the best possible image from all sources and under all conditions – with minimal fuss for the user.

Big sound to match

We recognise your need for good sound from your television whether you are a surround sound enthusiast or not. The compact BeoVision 8 cabinet is filled to capacity with an advanced amplifier and no less than five speaker units to get that clear and authoritative Bang & Olufsen sound. The dedicated bass provides a firm foundation for movies and music, while the front units deliver incredibly natural human speech. If you enjoy movies or high-quality drama series, you need a television that can reproduce speech as accurately and clearly as possible. And if you want the full digital surround sound experience now or in the future, BeoVision 8 is ready.

Flexibility included

The compact integrated speaker cabinet delivers a surprisingly full sound quality to complete the experience you get from watching TV or DVDs. With everything integrated, you can find room for BeoVision 8 anywhere in your home. The retractable feet support BeoVision 8 casually on the floor or on a traditional TV cabinet, and we have wall brackets and an elegant stand programme that will cover all your needs.
