Their earlier LX series had a real B&O chassis and used the excellent Philips 30AX CRT, much, much nicer IMHO.

Thanks for the info. I actually know zero about TVs, as I haven't even owned one for much of the last 30 years. This 32" Sony I bought in 2001 will probably last me the rest of my life, as it gets less than 100 hours/year of use.
I worked for B&O briefly in retail sales. I never got to the point of learning about the older sets because of course I had to know the current products. They were astonishing performers with even more astonishing prices.
This set will probably be given away or sold. I really just wanted the Beolink 1000 remotes, which work on the audio gear. I have 8 or 9 of the turntables and a variety of other stuff.
Thanks again for the info.
