Is this possible? The Beomaster requires a 2 pin wire connector and the Beolab requires an 8 pin din plug connector. I hope there is a solution. Thanks for any suggestions.

Connecting Beolab 1 speakers to a Beomaster 8000 amp
5 replies
Thanks Steve for you quick response.
3 questions,
1. Is the line in RCA cable, you show in the link, different from any RCA patch cable?
2. I now see the U links. Do you recommend using 2 RCA cables out of the Beomaster, 1 for each speaker?
3. When I use the line in jack on the beolab speakers, will I still be able to connect other powered speakers via beolink plug? I'm thinking probably not.
At present I have 2 pairs of passive speakers connected from the beomaster via 2 pin plugs/wire, but if I can connect the beolab 1 speakers, I don't necessarily need to have all of them running at the same time.
Thanks again,
zapdady
Steve, does this mean the speakers would not be stereo?
Steve,
Follow up question. I was able to connect my Beolab 1 speakers as you advised. I am getting them to work but with no control of the volume. Please advise. Thanks.
Hi zapdady,
Thanks for your reply, I think you may have connected to the wrong sockets on the Beomaster - please use the pre-out sockets, not the Tape out sockets and you should have volume control.
Kind regards, Steve.
