It also arrives in celebration of the Danish brand’s 95th year designing audio and video gear with unmistakable character.
If there’s anything the Danish manufacturer does it is put on an attractive face. And the Beovision Contour is certainly a good looking set, combining aluminum, oak and fabric in various configurations with equally successfully attractive results (our favorite being a combination of Anthracite and a smoked oak veneer grill).
