Hello,

I acquired very recently a Beosound Core and am very happy with it running BL9s, BL12-2s and BL19 with it.

Okay, now the question, I would like to expand the radius of the music system and to have one wireless speaker to my system. I have been thinking of Beosound 1 (that is a multiroom product itself).

- Is Beosound 1 able to connect/sync as a wireless speaker to my present Core-based system?

- Any compatibility issues in any versions of Beosound 1 or anything that could create obstacles, does anyone know?

Cheers again, folks!

Hello all,

And many thanks for everyone's advice. I have now Beosound 1 in operation and I am very happy at this point! The quality of the sound is immaculate and gives nice and needed extra boost in places where Beolabs don't reach!

Installation was not as clear-cut as I thought first with Android system and I managed best with my old iPad (adding new Airplay device onto network). After that, linking in multi-room with Core was easier.

But when done, the operation has been enjoyable so far!

The more (wireless) NL devices you add, the more fun it gets.

Starting with one, tapping on another and it joins..

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

Or sometimes multiple tapping and then get the damn phone out to sort out the devices as one is stuck as lead and the others will not join!

Oh the joys of technology 😁
