Hi Moxxey,

Nice, we really need more threads with positivity 😁

I have my PM since the very first it came out - it has worked perfect ever since.

Wouldn't miss it, it has become a very essential part of my setup allowing me to do things I could also do before, but now in a much easier and better way. I am very pleased with the soundquality.

Greetings Millemissen

Bought a Playmaker MK1 over the weekend, as I wanted a device which supports FLAC.

So was is reduced in price because there is a new model out?  Do I need to buy one quickly??

No, it's not reduced in price. Most dealers still have MK1's in stock (but new stock will now be a MK2, without FLAC support).

Hi,

 

I have bought one in France 2 weeks ago, and I confirm they still have playmaker mk1 in stock.I wonder really if this mk2 exists.

As you say Moxxey, very good results with the bl3.

I have just bought a bs5/bm5 too and the Dac is even better than the playmaker.Every old cd I stream sounds good.

It does exist - it's listed on the internal dealer system. Also, if you download the BeoSetup app, it states "Playmaker MKII".

The Playmaker MKII differs in that it can auto-update when new software is made available.

thanks for this information.

Auto update or manual update, this is not a big improvement for me.

When I installed it , It took me 10 times more than the secondhand beosound 5 I just purchased.

For the bs5, I didn't use the beoconnect app as I use Linux pc only.

I don't know if this is because this unit was a secondhand unit, but it was really easy.

so enjoy your new toy :)

 

I like it too, but really miss a built in wall mount

+1.

Still enjoying my PM every day without any issues. A very good DAC inside and easy operation.

In combination with the Creation 5 app (also usable with the BM/BS5 combo) is this a perfect couple. But other apps like Airfoil or Plugplayer and Beoplayer (full version) are worth to use.

Enjoy your setup but the most important is the good soundquality of your (new) toys. Just listen with your eyes closed on the couch!

Have a look at the STB-website. A wallmount is available for the Playmaker. Have a look here: http://www.stbbrackets.co.uk/?page=proddetail&catID=79&ProdID=1200
