one ”card” is inserted in one of the speakers and that card then connect to the other speakers via cables

Exactly. This is the solution for stereo for now. Left/Right pairing over WiFi is currently out of our reach. 

Thanks for your thoughts on Essence Remote vs. App (and also, once again, for kicking off this thread).

Hej BeoJeff, I have a feeling there must be another thread on the Essence Remote options that could be brought back to life with specific questions about the options. Maybe you could find that and ask some specific things there, with a starting point in what feels like it is missing from the documents downloadable from BeoIntegration.

If it is a dialog you want then dialog goes where it goes until it goes there no more. If a discussion has to have a purpose then it has to be moderated, and that means someone has to decide what is right and wrong. It is hard to get everything you want unless you want to be moderator and set the boundaries. I certainly don't care for that because I am too close to the end of my time in this dimension to intentionally shorten it. 

I don't believe you have a hint of ill will in your body, but I will stand by what I believe; that culture and strategy create the DNA, and at least one former employee described a scenario that impacted culture and strategy deeply. B&O stakeholders around the world are faced with either accepting this new product platform, or wishing for one that is more like what THEY think B&O used to stand for. 

It's actually rather simple, and it's ONLY business. I think B&O did whatever it took to save its skin, and had no qualms about what it did to its employees or customers. If I had the intellect (and requisite euros) I would have bought a portion of stock after Tue left and made a great return. 

Bow Wow

You made a post on the BeoCreate thing - and Lyle even commented on that....only to be shot down by someone, who ‘knows how to do that better’.

Since my CX version is fully capable of running wireless in stereo, I guess I do 🙂

The idea of upcycling the CX was great, unfortunately (No offence Lyle 🙂) it was hit by the new B&O DNA, - overly complicated, semi-beta software driven, no design elements and expensive.

And by the way,-

If you are looking for wireless B&O has this great WISA Transmitter/Receiver set which really is very capable. And powering the CX 100 without resorting to anything else than a credit card, the Beoamp2 will give you 2*150w ICE power in a metal enclosure...

Beovox141, May I ask how you did to hook them up with powerlink and how you made them wireless?

Absolutely 😁  

My first one was based on a simple LM3886 (aka the gainclone)  The aluminium enclosure of the CX 100 act as a heatsink and the PSU (a toroidal transformer) is in the box as well. The simplicity is proven by the fact that it doesn't even need a PCB.

A later revision was based on a TI Class D design. More power an less heat, but more complex.

The wireless version,- that is for a separate thread  🙂

Did you notice any difference in the bass due to the volume of the components, especially the toroid? Seems like depending on the transformer and such you could eat up a significant amount of the internal volume and change the bass alignment.

Great idea though, would love to see more of how you did it all. 🤒

Millemissen, I do not agree with some of your opinions and I do agree with a couple, so I will leave it there instead of going through every comment. 

Having Lyle talking about the Beocreate was exactly one of the things I was hoping for. 

There is nothing better than open discussion that potentially could lead to some good ideas👍🏻

Lyle, thanks for your comments in the thread. I am really looking forward to see where Beocreate will go!

Beovox141, hmm that sounds pretty sweet. Would you be able to post some photos here? Would love to see how you set it up👍🏻

And if you feel to, please do ”hijack” this thread to post the details of the wireless version. I do not mind the slightest since it is exactly what I meant for this thread, ways to update old stuff!
