BeoVision

Production: 1990 - 04/1992

Fitted with a 25″ tube, the Beovision L4500 was fitted with a NICAM decoder for GB use and a multi-standard tuner for use in other countries.

Replacing the Beovision L2502 Teletext was fitted as standard and used the Beolink 1000 remote control handset.

The ‘L’ range was a cut-down version of the Beovision LX4500 and one which used a full-range single speaker.

External speakers could be connected and there was a headphone socket fitted to the front of the TV.  The receiver had also been prepared for use with a satellite decoder.
