Beo Vision 8 by Bang and Olufsen (LCD HDTV)

Bang and Olufsen showed its 32-inch LCD HDTV at the CES 2008, particularly for the US market. The design very well and carefully made so that you can easily place it on a stand, either on a TV bench, or on just the floor, just anywhere in your house, as its designer David Lewis says: “...a television designed to be used instead of being switched off in the living room for most of the day”. So use it the way you like.
For this high-def TV the entry-level price is starts at $3950, which is quite cheap then the rest of other LCD HDTV in its class.

Most of the flat screen TV produces a flat sound, but its designer David Lewis created the Orchestra Pit feature, so that sound can move forward and up like in a real orchestra. There is a bass cabinet in the front of the screen fitted with bass speakers down facing, which provides a good experience while watching movies and just listening to music. In addition, the two front units specially meant for the reproduction of the human voice, so you can hear each word as clear as it possibly recorded.

This LCD HDTV Beo Vision 8 will soon be available in all Bang and Olufsen showrooms by coming February 2008 for the said price that is $3950.
