Peter,

that is why I changed my Beosound 2500 to an Ouverture, to make use of the AUX input using a mac mini.

The aux in the Beosound 2500 was blocked for the ML converter (type 1614 or type 1611).

So, if you want the Beosound as an audio master in your setup and make use of the aux input (aux is in and output!), you need to change to an Ouverture (or BS4/9000).

When I finish the mac mini setup (using a 10" touch screen LCD with it as a front row/cover flow input device) I will post pictures.

Ralf

Thanks very much for that Ralf!

If I use the aux for the mac-mini input is anyone prepared to tell me if the speaker set up I have in mind will run as a "series" set up with powerlink cables alone???????

Cheers

We've been in for about 18 months now, and loving it especially the hard-wired B&O! Haven't finished off the complete media management system, so still got CD's in boxes and playing them individually. Have used the SD card too but find the quality a bit "thin".

Now the ipad is here I think I'll incorporate that so if anyone has some clever ideas I'd be glad to hear them! We're still working with analogue on the Samsung Series 6 LED which gets a few raised eyebrows when we have visitors - I'll sure miss those "Rabbit ears" when they go! The system is hard wired through the house with I assume Masterlink as the B&O guys did it - seems that is now outdated which is a bit disappointing really.

Here are a few pics of the system. I have to say that the LAB 3500 are perfectly adequate, and it really is great having good sound all over the house!

That's a great view you have !

And the inside of the home looks good too 

Thanks for the pictures - I will respond to your PM/email a bit later
