Ok guys, I've connected the Encore with the 1614, and it works like a charm.

Now if somebody knows a way to force a fixed volume output on the Encore (maybe on a hidden service menu, if it's possible on a Playmaker, that would be cool on the Encore).

Hi Kai,

I use a HRT Music Streamer II as a DAC for my Mac. Very satisfied about the sound and for a good price. Look also for a Vlink or the Cambridge DAC.

Can you tell me/us how did you do this setup? What kind of cable do you use from the Encore to the converter?

Now I use the Aux-in on my Beosound, but have a spare 1611. Will it work like a kind of Masterlink?

HI all

I really need help with a similar setup. At this point i have a BS3000 linked up to my BV 7-40 and an airport express connected to the aux in on the BS3000. Speakers are connected too BV 7. I can stream music to my entire ML setup using A-Mem. Now, when i try to replace my BS 3000 with a Beolink Converter (1611), leaving everything else unchanged, meaning unplugging BS3000, switching the ML cable to the Beolink Converter, switching the DIN to minijack in Airport express from aux in og BS3000 to aux in on Beolink converter, nothing happens? My tv switches to audio mode showing either CD, A-mem etc. but there is no sound regardless of audio source. Tried switching the Airport Express with my iPhone but this did not work either,

Can anyone please help??

TIA
