Hi, Hans keep the information coming.  Can you give more information on how you re-used the amplifier in the Avant.  Can you give details or photos of how you made the connections for the power supply and the audio input?  I think that there is a lot of potential mileage (kilometer-age) in what you have started, and many of us could extend the lives of our defunct but nevertheless much loved Avants.

Great thread..... keep it coming.

Hi Paj,

This week end I will post the details you need.

I agree, and I'm also very interested. 

Ditto
I am missing my surround sound of my 32" while I am using the temporary Avant 28".

We are many following this interesting thread!

Thanks enkhome!

Looking forward to you comming postings.

Hi Daniel,

Lintronic answered as follows;

We do not offer a 0-9 volt input.

We would need to read an external device by RS232/RS485 to determine the voltage level.

But even if we did that the B&O systems volume does not allow absolute control (4.5 volt = 50% volume level).

Hans,

welcome to this forum and congratulations!

Your work is simply stunning!


Keep going with information as there seem to be enough people that want to "convert" their baby ( = Avant) 🙂

Wouldn't it be easier if you disconnect the original volume control of the B&O amplifier and use an external control that just drives the poweramplifier from B&O? Or you could use a complete new amplifier module and just drive the B&O speakers with a mathing crossover?!

Oh, and did I say that your work is amazing? 😕

Can't you let the plasma panel control the picture and the Avant to control the sound (and masterlink). And all can be controlled by a Beo4 via the Lintronic?

Excellent work! It looks amazing 🤒

Hi

I used the existing amplifiers as is 4x15 watt (continue) so keeping the active crossover and feeding it with a additional powersupply. You can see it on a picture earlier provided.
