Connecting BeoSound Ouverture to MX7000

20 replies

Hi Lars,

Sorry for the delay in responding to this thread, as I've been very busy in the last few days.  Your Tandberg speakers need an amplifier to connect them to any modern B&O equipment, this can be done easily using a conventional hifi amplifier.

Connect a "Powerlink to RCA Adapter Cable" to one of your Powerlink sockets on the Ouverture and then into a line or tape input on the amplifier.  Then connect the Tandberg speakers into the speaker sockets of the amplifier.

If your Aux socket is in use connecting the Ouverture to your MX7000, then you may be best to use an FM wireless transmitter to send your iPod sound to the Ouverture, otherwise you could connect this into the MX7000 using an iPod to SCART cable and this can then be switched to either the TV or audio system speakers as required.  The lack of spare input sockets on the Ouverture is a common issue!

If you need any assistance in locating the correct cables, please just ask, or click my sponsor link at the foot of this page.

Best regards,

Steve.

Great advice! Thank you ever so mutch. I really like the FM wireless transmitter idea. Less cables is alway great, well no offence to you🙂! Is there any noticeable reduction in the sound quality if you choose this solution?

Last but not least, are there any B&O amplifiers for passive speakers that you would recommend?

Hej larsbergen

Vi tar den på dansk.Du kan bruge en hvilken som helst stereoforstærker det behøver ikke at være en B&0 blot den har linieindgange med rca tilslutninger men selvfølgelig helst en af god kvalitet.Du kan så gemme den væk i et skab  og sætte volumen på den i den position du nu finder mest egnet

mvh

Tusen takk for all hjelp! 🙂

Could I use a Beomaster 5000 receiver to connect my passive speakers.?

Forgive the follow-on question from across the pond, but with our different product line-up and all the switching back and forth between Norwegian (I presume) and English, I may have missed something here.

If the Audio Master in question is, in fact, a n Ovetür, then it can't communicate with the MX via the Aux socket, as the Overtür is an ML system and has no DataLink on the Aux.  So, either we're dealing with a 2500 and a very early MX-7000, or a mis-matched combination, or an Overtür and a more modern MX-7000, in which case we should be talking about an ML connection.  In the case of a mis-match (ML Overtür/MCL MX-7000, shouldn't we be suggesting the BeoLink Converter instead of the ML>MCL converter?
