Bang & Olufsen40-inch BeoVision 8 LCD TV

Bang & Olufsen 40-inch BeoVision LCD TVSpiffy tv creators Bang & Olufsen announced yesterday their newest product to be taunting consumers in the near future, the BeoVision 8, a 40-inch LCD TV set to be released in North America. This newest version of the BeoVision 8 TV is bringing in some pretty cool new features to the already great system and, what could be, a more affordable price for consumers.....well affordable by Bang & Olufsen standards.

The new BeoVision 8 looks to combine a technologically advanced home cinema viewing experience with the straightforward elegance and ease of use characteristic of the BeoVision compact screen concept. According to Zean Nielsen, President of Bang & Olufsen America, "The new 40-inch version of BeoVision 8 is the fifth video product Bang & Olufsen has launched in less than 12 months. It's a great new addition to our video portfolio. This product is an extremely flexible solution for both wall and floor placement and allows us to offer Bang & Olufsen options to a much wider customer group than ever before."

The BeoVision 8 has some cool new tech in it including double frame rate technology (or 240Hz) with motion compensation. This allows the picture refresh rate to double compared to conventional LCD TVs. Also, the inherent blur of LCD technology has also been significantly reduced. Contrast improvement technology has also been added. This optimizes the contrast according to the picture content in each scene. As an added bonus, both BeoLink home integration functionality and extra video connections can be included with a convenient plug-and-play module.

The BeoVision 8 has a down-facing bass speaker which provides a firm foundation for movies and music and the front unit speakers are specifically tuned for the reproduction of human speech. Overall the sound quality seems natural and clearly audible giving you the sensation that voices are coming directly out of the screen. "What we did was move the sound forward and up, designing the TV like a proper stage with an orchestra pit," states designer David Lewis. "This ensures the synergy between performance and design expected of Bang & Olufsen."

The BeoVision 8 offers maximum flexibility as it can easily be moved around, placed on an entertainment center or even hung from a wall mount. The design of the BeoVision 8 is beautiful. It offers a radical synthesis of detailed craftsmanship, technological innovation and easy operation. The 40-inch BeoVision 8 should be available online and in all Bang & Olfusen retail locations by summer 2010 and will include the Bang & Olufsen 3-year international warranty. The 40-inch BeoVision 8 should hold a price tag of around $5,400.
