Steve, in that case would synchronisation of volume between the 2 BL 5 still be needed? Or does volume control occurs by the source before the signal is wirelessly transmitted?

Beolab 5 - New Receiver 1 and Transmitter needed!

Hi,
You would still have a volume controlled output from the Transmitter 1, but as the Beolab 5s would be working in Line mode it would be advisable to add a Sync cable between the two speakers as their volume levels won't be synchronised:-

Thank you very much Steve! I have tried this in the past but my Beolabs don’t listen well without sync cable. For me this is a negative outcome.
Hi I was wondering if you could help me with this problem. I want to create a wisa surround sound with a pair of Beolab 5s connected to a receiver 1. I see that you can plug it into the line in. But I was wondering if I did this could volume be controlled from the surround sound wisa source
thanks for the YouTube videos

Hi cameron11,
A wired connection is always the best option, especially with Beolab 5. This is because although a WiSA connection is possible via the Line inputs, it is a work-around and so not something that should be planned for.
Please feel free to get in touch via my sponsor link below if you would like more detailed help to get the best from your system and speakers.
Kind regards, Steve.
