Yes I have also guessed that it for 2 and for 16 (1 zone and 8 zones. 🙂 But it still does say how it is intended to be used i a Beolink setup.
Peter: You mention a control box. Which control box?
If you just want an extra room with passive speaker in a pure NL setup with NL products elsewhere in the house. How do you then utilise the Beoamp for that. And yes I know ti will be the amplifier for the speakers.
In your case just plug out the ML cable and the ir-eye from the Passive and connect the output of e.g. an Essence to the PL-in on the Passive.
This will then act as an amplifier for the Essence.
You will need a RJ45 -> DIN PL cable.
It can be controlled by the 'Wheely', the Beomusic app and/or alternatively a (new) ir-eye/a Beo remote
Since the Essence is a NL product, you have made your old setup with the passive speakers and the BeoLink Passive (amp) a part of your future NL setup.
No need for a Beoamp 2 in that case.

Indeed correct MM. very easy conversion to NL in the setup you describe. Affordable and you have multiple audio sources. The amp 2 is a stereo ampThe amp 16 is a multichannel solution. Think multiroom with an essence for each area or home theater with all in wall speakers.In your case just plug out the ML cable and the ir-eye from the Passive and connect the output of e.g. an Essence to the PL-in on the Passive.

Hi MM - does this mean then that (because the Essence has 2 x 2channel PL outputs - you could drive 2 sets of speakers independently by using the BeoLink Passive? Is the BLPassive controllable by the BLGW?

Not MM, but the 2 PL outputs on the Essence are not independently controllable. They both play the same source all the time. Better to think of them as output PL for speakers that do not daisy chain vs. 2 outputs.
