Welcome to Beoworld. If you get a device called a Beolink PC2 or Beoport, you can connect your computer to the system and play it by remote. Seems a shame to have done all that ripping and not make use of it!

Cheers Peter, will look into it.

The BS4 & BL6000s are for the new living room, looking for brackets for them to wall mount so the Hoover doesn't attack them - looks like it could be a long search...

The BS1 will hopefully take pride of place in the office, do you know if that can be linked up?

Not really - you would be better off with a pair of speakers and a Beolink Active. That way, you can access your main system in the office (same house I take it?) using a remote. Beolab 4000s or similar would sound superb and are getting cheaper.

ahh, so the BS1 remains fully remote/mobile.

Office is inside yes, would think the BeoLink active withw BL4s (active) would be more appropriate for me size wise compared to BL4000s.

Appreciate the direction.

Not impressed with 4s - 4000s are not that big! They wall mount!

Appreciate the advice.

...and thanks Ralf, I've jumped in the deep end at last ;)

Welcome to Beoworld, Lee!

You will enjoy your setup but I have to agree regarding the Beolab 4: They are just ok as computer speakers... nothing more. You should get a pair of Beolab 4000.

The Beosound 1 has an AUX-Input which you can use with the Beolink active Powerlink output. This would enable the Beosound 1 to be a part of the Masterlink network, too. If you like the Beosound 1 better than other solutions, I would go this way.


btw: Technics built some great products and their best know example is the SL1210 Turntable. Built like a tank, reliable and known, used and appreciated by many many DJs and Clubs around the world! :)

Hi Lee,

I did try to email you privately but not sure of you got the email. I followed this thread and agree with the guys who say it would be good for you to integrate you Digital Music with your new system.

I have an unused Beolink PC Office ( the old serial version of the Beolink PC2 or Beoport Peter mentions) and I am more than happy to donate it to you as a new enthusiast (if you are happy to cover the postage). It can be set up with a PC but you will either need a serial port or a USB to serial adapter. I think you might also require a Beolink Active (but I cannot remember) and you will then be able to access your N.Music.

I replaced it with a Beolink PC2 so it is sitting in it's box in a cupboard. If you think you can make use of it just let me know.

If anyone who commented on this thread thinks it is not compatible with Lee's equipment, or it will be too hard to set up, please let us know so we can make an informed choice what to do with it 👍

Regards

Stoobie
