How do you connect your Roon ready device to your BO speakers?

I used the multiple connections on the back on my speakers (BeoLab 50s) to connect both a BV using powerlink, and also to connect a Roon ready streamer / DAC via RCA.

That way the 50s can serve both purposes (music or video).

I connect the music source using RCA as it is a DAC (hence analogue out) as well as being a streamer.

That way, if i want to just listen to music, using Roon, the 50s wake up and play.

If i turn on my BV, then the 50s switch over to the TV.

Input selection on the 18s cant be selected via the B&O app in the way that it can be done with the 50s. Instead the 18s have a manufacturer set list of input priorities, but you can achieve pretty much the same thing with the 18s i think.

.....and how about the volume control, when you’d connect the ‘Roon device’ directly to the 18’s/19???

 

In this case - where the Moment is already installed and the speakers seem to be connected to the BV - I’d simply connect the ‘Roon device’ to the Moment/line input....and enjoy whatever you send to the ‘Roon device’. Simplest way!

This way you also can use the ‘Roon device’ in a Beolink aetup....if you have further NL devices.

Good point re keeping the Moment, if he / one wants to retain use of the BR1 for volume control.

Depends on how important or not that is to the poster I guess.

Or just connect the digital out from his Roon Ready streamer / DAC to the Avant itself (spdif input I guess).....that should work too, allowing the BR1 to control music volume, and at the same time getting rid of the Moment. And would still enable NL sharing of Roon music.

Myself, I removed the Moment, sold it to recover some money, didnt really like having hardware kicking around for extremely limited reasons, and in the end I use the Roon app most of the time for volume control.  On the odd occasion I use my streamers/DACs remote, which is no big deal. Its pretty nice and - wait for it - has 6 my buttons.....which can be used to store a range of things (music content wise).

Thank MM

NL is something i use alot, and don’t want to be without it..

so i can ex buy a Bluesound Node and Connect it to my Moment, and it will also play NL.?!

That’s just great 👏👏😁

Anything that is connected to any of the line input on the NL devices can be distributed over NL.

Nowadays a lot use that for distributing the sound from a turntable.

You can - if you want - connect the Node (as an example) to one of the other devices on the NL.

There are people, who buy an M3 and use that exclusively for distributing what is connected to the line input there.

You could alternatively connect it to the Harmony/Sound Center using the digital/optical in, if the Node (or alike) has a digital output port.

Some are convinced that the sound will be better that way (compared to an analog to analog connection). 
Maybe that would even make it easier to hide the Roon device/the Node away.

Thanks👍🏻

i have a Avant tv, so hopefully this has the same possibility as a Harmony/Sound center..

i have to check it out 😁👌

Sure -  as for NL distribution, these work basicly the same way as the Harmony Sound Center.

Note - I did wonder about the Harmony and a Moment - these don’t integrate the same way as the Avant and the Moment......that was my mistake!

 

Have fun - and please report back, once you have set things up.
