I still can't see a panel update happening, at least switching from TP-Vision to an LG OLED. Maybe there would be room to make the 48CX "slide in"?
Surely the added value for the Horizon vs Stage/LG would be the surround decoder (and PUC?), plus the included BR One. Furthermore the stands for Horizon are cheaper than the new Stage stand :)

Moxey I know, but an upgraded panel could be a newer version of the Lg Led panels. In wich case I am not interested. But if it is an Oled panel that would be interesting.
Hiort:Maybe I’m confused, but TP-Vision is making the OS and not the screen, right? I recall the screen in Horizon to be a Samsung panel. Assume that could be replaced by a LG OLED panel, or? I understood that the Horizon panel (and BV14) is a TP-vision / Philips panel and therefore Android based OS, where the OG Avant/11/V1 are samsung panels with B&O OS. If B&O is going to introduce a Horizon mk2, they can only come with a LG panel, not a newer Android based panel. The line up with LG/Stage - Horizon MK2 - Eclipse MK2 - Harmony looks good imo and a logical product / price strategy to get customers back to the B&O ecosystem. As said earlier the Horizon must be upgraded both panel- and soundwise.

For the Horizon (and BV14) TP-Vision made the TV-electronics part, based on the Android TV OS.. Basicly that's the OEM part where B&O added additional software and sound hardware. No idea where B&O sourced the screen... so that could indeed be a Samsung.
