Correct, i saw that he had a Connection Hub, but did not know how to connect all speakers, and i understoud that he maybe would be happy with just stereo on all speakers. Just wanted to share this, since I had a similar setup!

What is the simplest way of setting up 4.1 with BeoLab 14 on non-B&O TV?
14 replies
Yes! This is perfect, thank you! I need to buy another RJ45 cable then. Will any RJ45 work, or does it need to be special for audio?
Hi Holbech,
Standard (UTP) RJ45 cables are not suitable for audio, you will get loads of background noise and humming. Please ensure that shielded (STP) cables like these are used to avoid problems:-

Hi,
You could buy an AV receiver with pre-out sockets (eg. Yamaha, Denon, Marantz, etc) from around £500 GBP (€550) to get surround sound through Beolab speakers at almost half the price, plus the receiver will manage all of your HD video sources and most of them will also give you wireless music streaming as well...... In particular, Marantz make some very slim receivers that don't take up too much space.
Cabling a receiver to Beolab 14 (or any Beolab speakers) is easy to arrange.
Kind regards, Steve.
