Tricky! You say you only want it for stereo and then list 3 video sources! If you connect the video sources to the TV and then use an audio out to a B&O device and connect the CD player to that, it should work, but why would you want a non B&O CD player which you could not control by remote. I am not sure that this will make life any easier - it sounds like you need to have a variable audio out to go to the BL11 and attach the BL6002s to the BL11. I don't think a B&O device will add anything really.

Hi Peter!

Your right, exempt the CD source, all off them are video and audio sources and for the most equipments on the market that's the problem. I want to hear digital music in high quality. I have all my music in Apple Lose Less or FLAC format. And all of them, expect the FLAC music, are managed with iTunes, so I want to use the Airplay functionality. Also I have only Apple products. My plan is to use on the AppleTV box and on the Digital SAT Receiver the HDMI Connector for the video and the optical connector for the audio signal. I don´t want to use the TV Set while I hear music.

I have an other idea:

TV: Panasonic 50" Plasma TV

Hifi: Primare PRE32

DAC: Project Boxes to connect the digital sources

Loudspeaker: Beosound11 and 6002

What do you think about that solution?

Best regards

Thomas

Why not choose 1 device for this? A pre-amp with digital inputs.

Can you recommand one?

I own the Quad Elite CDP my self. But don't feed Beolabs with it. May be I will in the future.

But I think this one could work in your setup.

HI!

Which loudspeakers do you use?

What is the price of the Quad Elite CDP?

Given that BL11 is line-sensing, if the TV has analog out and internal speaker switch, you might be able to use the TV as the preamp and run all your sources through it.  

Because I don´t want to power on the TV when I hear music and I think the DAC in the TV box aren´t as good as from a separate digital pre amp. Most of the time, I hear music from my iTunes library or from a internet radio station.

Does anyone know Peachtree Audio? www.peachtree-audio.de

Besides that, you can’t control the volume if you use a TV as pre-amp. They all have fixed analog out.

I paid 1500 euros for the CDP, but it’s a non-B&O setup, with passive speakers.

The Peachtree looks nice. But may be overpriced if you can’t use the build-in amp.
