But the a6 has the wall switch yeah? (For bass)

Yes they have.

It's the same for the essence : the switch is not directly on the essence but on the speakers.

Hello all!

More generally speaking when it comes to Multiroom:

What are your most curious findings?

What are you impressed with and what has been a disappointment?

What gas surprised you the most - positively and negatively?

Most curious

- that it actually works (in wireless)

Impressed

- that if an NL product is on which ever product you turn on next turns on

Disappointed

- there should be a product support for beolink and all its settings.

- there was not enough info and what it means to have a primary and secondary product

- there was not enough info about turning the delay ms down to ensure everything is in sync

- yesterday in the update history there has been a number of updates to the essence but no communication of what these are. How are we supposed to enjoy the new updates if we don't know

Best surprise

- finding the new settings. The essence can be told which speakers are connected !

i agree, it was here in the forum that i found links to download detailled (and very helpful) manuals for both Networklink and Masterlink and not on B&O´s website. I guess most of B&O´s clients have their setup done by the dealers technician and don´t bother about it.

 

I would like to have individual icons for the speakers run by the Essence as you have with the NL/ML converter

Hi,

I confirm loudness is only on the essence.

I have 2 A6 with same firmware as my Essence MKII and they don't have the Loudness option.

Christophe.

Also on the BS35 - see the settings for my BS35; confirm for the BP6

Awesome. Will a setup with several NL/ML converters added individually to old products make each product just as good a Multiroom product as the new ones, provided that at least one new NL product is present in the setup?

When connecting a converter directly to one product is a delay box necessary? My dealer says yes, but from the documentation it appears not to be the case.i

With regard to accessing the sources of the old ML product from other NL devices, yes, pretty much as good as a NL device itself. However, for accessing netlink sources on the ML product, you still have to work within the confines of what masterlink supported - so you are limited by the number of available ML source names (and the way these are grouped between AudioMaster, VideoMaster and SourceCentre).

For example, a old ML BeoSound, connected to the converter, might be given access to Deezer from a NL product in another room, by mapping this source to the 'TV' source button on the remote, but if you have a lot of possible sources in your setup, you might run out of buttons you can map.

If you connect the product (by ML) to the converter, and then plug the speakers into the converter rather than the product itself, no delay box will be required. You can't do this with a video product though as the picture and sound will be out of sync (a delay box wouldn't help in this scenario either though).

Hi, riverstyx.

Thanks for the thorough reply. Practically, an NL-product already playing is joined how from an ML product without the join command?

I imagine the BeoMusic app could come into play, but physically which buttons do you touch on the ML product (/its remote)added to the converter?
