Problems with BeoPort PC2 - Mac - BeoCenter2 - BeoLab3

17 replies

I returned it to the store today.. I will continue to use the a.aux and not the N.music. It would have been nice to have the box and n.music, then I could have the bluray in to the a.aux.. 

I will put my money on a 3500 speaker for now instead. Maybe I will try again later with the box.

If U figure out the prob, I would be very happy to hear, for the future :) 

Enjoy the 3500 when you get it !

Much better than us beating our brains out over this problem :-)

I have connected the BeoPort as supposed. Usb from computer, 3,5 mm audio. Masterlink to BeoCenter2 and the powerlinks in the BeoPort. 

Just to be sure, you didn't connect the powerlink from the beoport to the powerlink from the BC2 Socket I assume? As it shouldn't.

This causes definately problems.

The option setting should have been 6. Both in option 2 causes also collisions on the ML.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

I connectred the Beoport to my BC2 with the link cable.. How else could I use the BC2?

Or should it not be connected during the setup? 

 

I've done this with my BS3000 but I had the Beolabs connected to the BS3000, not to the Beoport. Worked without any trouble!

I've got a similar set-up to yours. Mac mini and beocenter 2 and beolab speakers. My difference is that beolabs are powerlinked into socket unit of bc2 not the beoport. Linkplayer works fine with this setup apart from inability to control volume.I did once try to connect the beolabs to the powerlink of the beoport in an attempt to rectify the volume problem and everything stopped working!

I have to confess that my speakers are also not connected to the BeoPort ... but the volume control is at the speaker end (the BV8) or of course the link rooms
