Hi.

 

How do you route or setup the RJ45 (powerlink??) ports to route the TV here and out for external speakers.

 

In settings - Speakergroups you can select the PL 1 -1 and PL 1-2 and choose amongst a list of BEO speakers.

 

I want the TV sound out here as a line signal, nothing fancy. Tryied selecting other and line, didnt work.

 

Can anyone help or suppy a guide?

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Best

Hi there, can you give more details what you try to setup?

The powerlink output is meant for beolab speakers which are active speakers. You can select the output chanel to be line out but then you need to connect it to a amp and from there on to speakers.

The V1 is still a very nice tv and if you do not have beolabs I would strongly recommend you to get a good pair secondhand. To start with the Beolab 4000’s are great. Be aware that the sound processing (dolby surround and true image upmixing) and setup possibilities in the V1 are very very good and it is a waste if you do not use the maximum out of it.

Hope this helps
