An old BeoCenter 6 floor stand gets a new life

A couple of months back i bought a BeoCenter 6-23. Not because I needed it, but simply because it was cheap. I thought it would be a nice bedroom TV. But at the same time that I had bought the BC6 I found an even cheaper BeoVision 8-26.

I preferred the look of the BC6-23 but although it had a DVI-socket, it wasn't HDCP-compatible. So if i wanted to connect my AppleTV I had to use a scart-converter.

The BV8-26 had a single HDMI-socket, not much, but perfect for my needs.

So i thought to myself, that I had to let go of the BC6-23, but if I could put the BV8-26 on the floor stand of the BC6-23, that would be perfect.

So I sold the BC6-23 without the floor stand. Bought a wall bracket for the BV8-26. Dismantled the wall bracket. Made a steel plate to connect the bracket for the BV8-26 and the floor stand.

And voila.

The best thing is that it actually ended up being free... I sold the BC6-23, for more than I payed, actually enough to cover the cost of the BV8-26 and the wall bracket.

That's awesome! Looks much better than the stock BV8 floor stand as well. Good job!!!

Looks great! And economically beneficial too! Good job on the stand, looks like a factory job.

That looks great - applause :-)

Sorry - that is not everything!

That is making use of a BC6 floorstand in a clever way ;-)
