So the Hall Wifi Streamer has arrived, and it works like a charm. Y-splitter powerlink cable from Hall Streamer to a pair of Beolab 6000s. Setup was easy.  Airplay 2 works flawlessly, also in multiroom/sync with other Airplay speakers.

Only thing I haven't tested yet is TV sound input via hdmi arc and switching between TV and music, I assume it will work. I am changing the bass driver rubbers first, and changing the speaker covers from black to white.

Update: HDMI ARC and toslink also works. Hall streamer automatically switches input source. Volume control via TV remote works.

Very pleased with the Hall Wifi Streamer!

 

Picked up the Hall audio streamer yesterday at Danish Lounge in Geel.

Connected 3 x beolab 7.4 with the Y-splitter cable and it works perfect.

Haven't tested the TV sound via HDMI ARC yet.

 

Yes, the Hall device is a bit pricey, but it is really worth the money….needs more attention from all those, who have a non-B&O tv and still have some Beolabs, which they want to use.
