Hi All,
Just wondering if using a beosound core will solve the problem of connecting non B&O TV (LG OLED) to WISA speakers e.g. BL17s and subwoofer ?

Oasis, the Core itself has no WISA capabilities and as far as I know, someone can correct me if I’m wrong, but no way to connect to a television.
What you may want is the S8 Connection a hub. :)
You’ll need a Transmitter 1 for that.I personally have a Samsung TV connected to a Core via optical, Core is connected to the Transmitter 1 via Powerlink, Transmitter 1 connects to BL18, BL19 and BL8000 via WPL (Wisa)An Essence remote controls Core´s volume, TV volume included.Just wondering if using a beosound core will solve the problem of connecting non B&O TV (LG OLED) to WISA speakers e.g. BL17s and subwoofer ?

Perhaps an S8 connection hub would work as a one-box solution? I don’t know if it has WISA built-in. Best to Google! :)
As has been mentioned, the Core itself has no WiSA built it. So you'd connect the BeoLab WiSA transmitter to the powerlink output to accomplish this.
As far as connecting to a TV - I use this setup (with a Sony OLED, though) and Control4 so that the Core is both my B&O audio player, but also my TV sound component. I don't know if the BeoRemote 1 BT with a compatible LG OLED would communicate with both at once or if that feature is only for the Stage.
maybe an idea to choose a LG OLED with WiSa
Then you would need to find a way to listen Core sources through the TVmaybe an idea to choose a LG OLED with WiSa

But that was not the initial question: it reads, imo, can I solve the wisa connections by adding a Core.Then you would need to find a way to listen Core sources through the TVmaybe an idea to choose a LG OLED with WiSa
Core to tv connection: spdif?
Hello, the best solution (to my opinion) is the Almando Multiplay Surround Decoder II. This one has a build in WISA module. (https://almando.com/almando-multiplay-surround-decoder-78.html)
I have this decoder connected to my Samsung TV and works like a charm. All my B&O speakers work in full surround mode. Unfortunately the web page is in German, but if you give them a call the can explain everything in English. The instruction manual is in English.
