Fitted with a 28″ 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 L2802 Teletext was fitted as standard and used the Beolink 1000 remote control handset.
The ‘L’ range was a cut-down version of the Beovision LX5500 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.
Power Link connectors were used with the Beovision L5500 for connecting to a pair of Beolab active loudspeakers.
