PLEASE HELP!!!

I'm sure the TV won't alter the signal and is effectively just a conduit between beomaster and speakers. If you perceive a difference, you can adjust it to your taste via bass, treble adjustments. No signal will be lost so I think this is just a perceived effect.

I'd be interested to hear other's comments on this as by implication, anyone who is using these systems as designed by B&O (for example by Masterlinking their Beomaster or Beosound systems) are sacrificing sound quality. I can't believe this is the case.

I've run systems both ways and I couldn't tell you f any difference.

How is your converter connected?

Which cable(s) do you use.

By the way - I would support Dave in his view on keeping the speakers on the 7000 vs on the BV!!!

P.S. You wrote 'BV7 MKlll only screen' - does that mean, that there isn't any speaker(s) connected to it at all?

You're right, Dave, it would be interesting to hear the opinion of people who use this type of connection. For MM, the converter is connected with cable Masterlik to TV, and  to Beolink with Data Link cable to the socket Aux .

In any case Idon't understand, by manual  the setting seems easy to do.

And the answer to my P.S. question???

Sorry MM , I forgot there  is no speakers connectet to BV (I bought only the screen).

Must I use Pentas (possible connected to the BS).

Hello everyone, today I contacted support B & O, he said that by connecting the speakers to the BV sound quality does not change. This confirms your opinion.In any case I'm still working about setting the system how I'd like.I'm not able to do it.

If the BV7 has no speakers connected, it makes no sense to put it into Option1 - which would mean, that it receives the ir commands and tries to output sound.

However, putting it into Option 0 would mean, that you can't send any controls to it.

Only way - as I see it - is to activate the tv (probably using the DTV/SAT command) and after that send the sound to the BM7000 via the AV command followed by the DTV/SAT command. This should be easy with the BL1000 - if you use the Beo4, you will have to add it to the 'List'.

Did you test that (I have already asked this above)?

But this is not a very 'simple' way of controlling your setup ;-(

Please try out - at least as a test - how things work with the speakers connected directly to the BV7.

Use Option 2 for the BV7 and Option 0 for the 7000-master.

Hello MM, I tried using the buttons BeoLink 1000 and AV followed by the DTV / SAT now hear the audio, but you're right is not comfortable.

Connect the Pentas to BV is complicated, the routing cables is difficult to change, but at this point I think I'll try.

Just set your BV to V.OPT 0 and the BM to A.OPT 2.

Now everything should work as you want. The BV will be controled via your BM.
