?! So this beolab marks the end of the DIN powerlink? The end of an era....

Good riddance. The worlds biggest pain in the butt to site terminate and a big banner that reads "INCOMPATIBLE." It'll be nice to exploit all the potentials of RJ45 connectivity. 

Will this allow other sources to connect?

Seems like it does make the speaker more accessible.

The question will be how do you trigger the speaker on ?

Powerlink is 8-pin DIN Plug and RJ-45 is a connector with 8 leads so it could be the same interface with a different pinout or just >>DIN Pin 1 corresponds to RJ-45 Pin1 and soon. So a cheap adapter plug from from DIN 8pin to RJ-45 is possible.

Went to the dealer today to be disappointed. Delayed maybe they will arrive next week. But one possitive surprise today. The price dkk 16295 is a pair not each speaker 😁
