The BLC (Beolink NL/ML Converter) will be the bridge between Masterlink and new Beolink concept. 

You will be able to take the source (e.g. Deezer) from the A6 and play that in your living room using your exiting TV and speakers. So no need for an additional A6 there. By the Beomusic app you will be able to control the music in all rooms where you have e.g A6.

The BLC is very reliable I must say. Some work to configure it correctly, but this forum holds a lot of expertise in this field :) 

Think the price is around 675 Eur for the BLC.

How do you connect the different products to the main source (A6 in the bedroom, another A6 in the kitchen, Essence in the dressing for instance,...) ?

Wi-Fi, powerline,... ?

Example : like k984942, i have a BV10-40 from 2010 in the lounge, and a BS5 in the dining room. I would like to have the sound of the BS5 in my bedroom (A6) and in my dressing (Essence with BL4).

Can't link all the products with wires. What is the solution ?

Thanks for the quick response! I trust I will also be able to listen to a program on my BV7 on my A6's?

A6 can be connected over the Wifi. The Masterlink products need to be connected by Masterlink wire to the BLC. The BLC need ethernet wire to your router.

This is the way I have done my setup (used power line adapters):

In your case you connect your BV10 with Masterlink to the NL/ML (or BLC as its sometimes called)

Your Essence must be Mk II or else it will not be capable of interworking with the Beolink.

That is correct.

Thanks a lot Hiort ! 👍🏼

No problem 🙂

As I mentioned in one of the posts above is that the magic lies in how the BLC is configured. Cudos to B&O to enable the legacy Masterlink system integrate to the new in such a clever way.

Ah...the BLC needs Ethernet, that's going to be a problem! Does it not work over wifi?

It does not. But I guess you have a broadband router somewhere? You can access the router over Powerline adapters like I have done.
