Hello
And please bear with me. 😕 I'm just outside Cologne, Germany, and have recently bought my first B&O audio products. Over 20 years of dreaming of such luxuries have finally come to fruition.
The first purchase was a BeoSound Ouverture (exactly as seen on "Friends") for my desk and the second one was a BeoLab 2000 (type 1641) for the basement. The latter is supposed to play music from an old iPhone, but won't do anything of the sort. My attempt at a setup is:
BeoLink Active 1636 SW 1.1 (as per label) with IR eye
MasterLink cable from that to the speaker
old, repurposed minijack to DIN cable from iPhone into PC socket on the converter
and a Beo4 is also present and correct.
The speaker works fine when I connect it to the Ouverture, so it is out as the cause of the problem. My thoughts are:
Wrong converter? Can mine even act as a source for the BL2000 or can it only supply PowerLink speakers with the ML connected to a sound system?
Wrong cable? Should I try the "MINIJACK (IPOD, PC, ETC) TO BEOLINK ACTIVE PC SOCKET" from Sounds Heavenly instead?
I thank you for your time!
