Bang & Olufsen And
LG Introduce New TV
BeoVision Eclipse
The BeoVision
Eclipse TV can
access music
streaming services
BeoVision Eclipse is the fi rst TV developed in
partnership between Bang & Olufsen and LG
Electronics, available in 55in and 65in sizes.
The new TV integrates a 3-channel SoundCentre
and a visual appearance that mixes glass with coloured
fabric or aluminium.
“By merging LG Electronics’ OLED TV technology
to the Bang & Olufsen experience, we have reached
an even higher level and created the ultimate TV
experience,” says Stefan Persson, executive vice
president at Bang & Olufsen Home
The TV’s integrated and 450W powerful three-
channel SoundCentre offers both stereo performance
and centre channel.
The design draws on the classic Bang & Olufsen ideal
of aesthetic simplicity, highlighting the importance of
sound. The slim glass surface continues beneath the
SoundCentre, which in turn expands beyond the screen
on both sides. This makes for some exciting contrasts –
between image and sound, slimness and volume.
The motorised fl oor stand means that with a push of a button, the TV can be moved across the fl oor, creating a
personalised viewing experience. In addition to the fl oor stand, BeoVision Eclipse can be placed on a motorised or
manual wall bracket.
The TV includes 4K video processing technology and comes with LG Electronics´most recent webOS 3.5 platform.
The platform allows access and customisation of content, apps and devices including music streaming services like
Spotify, content providers such as Netfl ix, Amazon and YouTube, Blu-ray players of any brand, as well as personal
content. The audio streaming part includes TuneIn radio, Spotify Connect, Deezer, Chromecast built-in for audio, audio
AirPlay and Bluetooth streaming.
“BeoVision Eclipse is in many ways a fl exible solution for the modern consumer, and it represents another leap
forward in the way we make TV’s,” concludes Stefan.

New Crestron Pyng Software Features Alexa And Sonos Support
Crestron Pyng
now integrates
with Sonos and
Amazon Alexa
A new Crestron Pyng software update is now available. Version 1.010.0038 highlights include integration with Sonos
sound systems and Amazon Alexa software.
Integrating Sonos with Crestron Pyng as a multi-room audio source is now easy. Pair Crestron Pyng with Sonos
Connects to select and control Sonos favourites with Crestron touch screens, including the new TSW-560P 5”
portrait model.
For Amazon Alexa all that’s required is some simple confi guration steps. Once connected, Alexa automatically
recognises rooms and scene names from Crestron Pyng for immediate voice control, such as ‘Alexa, tell Crestron it’s
too hot in the kitchen.’
Custom installers can now pre-confi gure customer rooms, lighting loads, and modules off-site and then retrieve
from the cloud on-site. No more double work planning and documenting systems for electricians and then having
to recreate that entire process in the Crestron Pyng
app while on-site. Now, installers can document and
confi gure remotely in just one step.
Clients can also create their own scenes and
schedules for lighting and shades through user
interfaces other than Crestron Pyng, such as mobile
projects and touch screens generated by the residential
version of Crestron Studio software.
