Hi

My current set up is Beosound 9000 mk2  with input to a Beoiab 2 with output through Beolab 8000's.

 

I have a recently acquired a Beosound 5 / Beomaster 5, 1 TB and have attempted to connect the Beomaster  to the Beosound 9000 via Master Link and hear no sound when I select NMusic on the Beosound 5 but do when I select Radio.

Research into this issue as led me to believe that my BeoSound 9000 mk2 is not compatible with NMUSIC a software update is required to the BS9000.

I have 2 questions here :

 

1) Is my research correct and if so if there is a workaround to this issue

 

Thanks

 

Nigel

Do you have the Beosound 5 set as audio master?

RADIO should work in any case - it`s a BS9000 source.

Did you set your BS5 to NO AUDIOMASTER ?

If yes, you should have N.MUSIC and N.RADIO as sources on BS5 (and maybe A.AUX)

BS9000 has CD and RADIO as sources.

When you activate your BS5 selecting N.MUSIC, BS9000 should also start, displaying N.MUSIC (same wit N.RADIO).

Is Audio Master yes or no?
