Morning all!

Blimey, all these things to test! I need to text my wife (who’s at work) and let her know the vacuuming isn’t going to get done today!

Firstly great to have Steve on board, able to cast a professional eye over our attempts to push the boundaries of the B&O black boxes in our collections! Great to hear that your wife is back home recovering Steve.

@Guy: if you are willing to try it, I would be very interested to hear what reaction the BL 2000 and BL3500 has if you apply some voltage to the powerlink connector on the 1611 as I did. Do they turn on, and maybe off when power is removed?

I’ll add that to the test list – sounds like I am being forced to get my soldering iron out ☹

Guy, do you have a Beolink Active 1636 (or 163x)?

Yes!! And the good news is that I know what box it is in! According to my records it’s a 1636 at SW version 1.1.

I was told 163x converter replaced 1611 and I would like to know if it can drive the 3500 as standalone the same way the 1611 does.

I have never heard of a BL Active being used without it’s IR sensor attached, but am willing to try!  I also suspect that the Active’s PC socket input will only respond to PC source selection.

Coffee required first, then into the boxes to find some bits …
