Hi,
Is it somehow possible to connect my bl 17s wirelessly to a transmitter1, but connect the BL2 trough a powerlink cable?
Best,

Yes, if if for stereo or fronts to b&o tv.What’s your setup?
It's for stereo. My setup is like this:
Samsung tv -> toslink -> transmitter1 -> bl17
No pre-amp and the samsung does only have toslink audio out.
I want to use a BL2 in my setup, but its not wireless. I know there is a wireless reveiver from B&O I can buy to put on the BL2 to make wireless, but I do not want to do this right now if I can avoid it.
For stereo you cannot mix wireless and wired. For this purpose I have ordered 2 x receiver 1 to add my BL 8000s to my current BL 18/19 stereo setup that is including a Samsung TV connected via optical to the TR1.

The wireless reciver only recive one channel, right or left.It's for stereo.

So I only need two if I have two subs, right?
No, you need 2 recivers. One for each channel and a special cable. 2 rj45 to one pl. A sub needs right and left channel.So I only need two if I have two subs, right?
Hi KjetilA,
You need to have just one connection for each speaker (either wired or wireless). I can help with the cables to get these speakers working, either cabled to the TV, or wireless via Transmitter 1/Receiver 1 (please see my sponsor link below for more details).
Each speaker needs its own Receiver 1, (these are already built into Beolab 17, but 2 Receivers would be ideal if you want to use Beolab 2 as a stereo subwoofer, but this can be used in mono with a single Receiver).
Please let us know your preferred setup and we can assist further.
Kind regards, Steve.

Not sure why each speaker would need 1 additional receiver since the bl 17 already have it build in?
Correct, one rcv 1 + one cable per non Wisa speaker
