Goliath AV-BLS-07A review

A two-wire bus system with two indoor monitors, designed to reuse an existing bell cable rather than needing new conductors. Goliath states a 2 MP sensor, capacitive touchscreens and expansion with further indoor or outdoor stations.

The conclusion A proper wired system at a fair price, provided a two-core cable already runs to the door. Check that first.

This is where intercoms stop being consumer gadgets and start being building services. A two-wire bus system needs no Wi-Fi between door and screen: power, video and audio share one pair of conductors between the door and the monitors. The monitor joins Wi-Fi only for the app.

The specification that decides everything

How many conductors already run to your door. A two-wire system usually reuses an existing bell cable, which turns the job into a morning. A system needing four cores, on a house with two, means chasing new cable through a wall or under a path — a different project entirely, and one worth knowing about before ordering rather than after.

Count the wires first. It is the single most useful thing you can do before buying any intercom.

Two monitors, and why the set matters

A panel in the hall is not answered from upstairs. On a two-story house, the second monitor is what turns the system from something you run downstairs for into something that works. Buying the pair is cheaper than adding one afterwards.

What you give up

2 MP — 1080p. Against the 2K of the EZVIZ CP7 that is modest, and the trade is deliberate: a bus system’s advantage is that it works every time, not that it produces the sharpest picture.

Who it suits

A house with existing bell wiring, two floors, and a preference for infrastructure over gadgets.

What reassures, and what does not

Strengths

  • Two-wire bus — reuses an existing bell cable in most houses
  • Two monitors supplied, so upstairs and downstairs are both covered
  • Expandable with further indoor and outdoor stations
  • No dependence on Wi-Fi at the door

Compromises

  • 2 MP, which is 1080p — modest against the 2K of the EZVIZ CP7
  • Surface-mounted outdoor unit, which is more exposed than a flush one
  • Bus systems are less forgiving of wiring mistakes than wireless ones
  • Considerably more expensive than the EZVIZ CP5 and CP7

The questions we are asked

What is a two-wire bus and why does it matter?

It is a system where power, video and audio all travel on the same pair of conductors. That means an existing two-core bell cable can usually be reused, which is the difference between a morning's work and chasing new cable through a wall. Establish how many conductors run to your door before you choose any intercom.

Why two monitors?

Because a single panel in a hall is unanswered from upstairs. On a two-story house, a second monitor is what makes the system usable rather than a device you run downstairs for — and buying the set is cheaper than adding one later.

Surface or flush mounting?

This is the surface-mounted outdoor unit, which fixes onto the wall face. It is far easier to install and slightly more exposed to weather and to being levered. A flush unit sits in the wall, looks better and requires a recess to be cut.

Our score

7.8/ 10

A proper wired system at a fair price, provided a two-core cable already runs to the door. Check that first.
