B&O DACs
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 3, 2025 13:27Thanks for the reply - this is what I'm looking for. Since the Icon was only a slight step up, I'd expect the BCC to be as well. Bodes well for staying the ecosystem. Plus I want to be able to use the Halo! The Linn Sele…
B&O DACs
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 31, 2025 17:51I'm not sure if anyone has any insight into this, but I'm curious what DAC is used in BeoSound Essences, Cores, & Connect Cores? I've been enjoying a two-channel setup with my BeoLab 9s for some time using a Core, but I …

BeoSound Core Streaming Resolution
in BeoSound · Sept 16, 2024 14:19I've auditioned a few players for my BeoLab 9s with a JL sub - the difference in resolution is very clear, thus worth pursuing.
BeoSound Core Streaming Resolution
in BeoSound · Sept 13, 2024 21:02I've sent he support for Tidal on the new Core, but for this room I'd more likely move toward a different streamer altogether unless B&O suddenly partnered with Roon. This is a dedicated listening room and I don't need i…
BeoSound Core Streaming Resolution
in BeoSound · Sept 13, 2024 14:04That's basically what I was looking for. Just trying to figure out where the throttling was occurring and making sure that it's just a limitation (even if it's arbitrary) so I can stop trying to figure out a workaround! …
BeoSound Core Streaming Resolution
in BeoSound · Sept 12, 2024 16:05I can't seem to find a detailed answer on this... The BeoSound Core seems to be capable of handling 24/96 FLAC files. Chromecast also seems to be capable of handling 24/96 FLAC files. Tidal has plenty of 24/96 files (or …
Better than BL90s?
in General Discussion & Questions · Aug 19, 2024 19:06I was lucky enough to work in a showroom that had BeoLab 90s in a decent room for years. I've spent as much time with them as some of my own speakers. But for the last 6 years I've also sold and been party to some crazy …
BeoSound 35 Trade
in For Sale · Aug 19, 2024 18:58This might be a long shot, but I have a mint condition BeoSound 35 that I can't find a home for. At one time this was a dream acquisition, but then I moved and just can't find a spot for it due to its width. I'm in the N…
Beosound Core - connectivity and alternatives
in BeoSound · Nov 1, 2023 14:48In terms of going wireless, you'll need the BeoLab Wireless 1 transmitter that will connect to the Core. The Core doesn't output WiSA itself. Otherwise I've found that to be a perfectly stable connection and the sound is…
Beosound Core - connectivity and alternatives
in BeoSound · Oct 31, 2023 20:231) Need to connect up my turntable as this is my main and most enjoyed source. It’s on the other side of the room from where the speakers will be and can’t be relocated. Ok. 2) I use Roon for streaming. As I understand i…
BeoSound 35 Low Wall Bracket
in Wanted · Aug 26, 2023 10:43These are out of production and out of stock with B&O and STB only makes a set for the higher position where the speaker angles downwards. Hoping someone has a pair floating around!!!
B&O service / USA - 9500
in BeoCenter · Aug 15, 2023 19:59I worked with Marc and Paul at Atlantic Systems for over 10 years when I was a dealer. If it's fixable they'll fix it. I've seen them go above and beyond and even harvest parts from other dead products (which they keep a…

Streamer for Beolab 5
in BeoLab · Jul 26, 2023 19:31About 1.5-2 years ago I spent some time to audition a variety of "just-add-speakers" style streamers with a few pairs of BeoLabs I own - specifically BeoLab 9s and BeoLab 3s. I was considering departing the BeoLink multi…
A9 and Mesh networks
in BeoSound · Jul 26, 2023 19:21It's not that the A9 doesn't work with mesh networks, it's that mesh networks are often deployed because more stable network configurations can't be. So many are, by nature, compromised. The A9 doesn't uniquely have issu…
Soft Touch Surfaces - Plastic Edition
in General Discussion & Questions · May 4, 2023 18:21I appreciate the reply. At the moment they're still in good enough condition. I just wanted to potentially get ahead of them. Maybe I'll just wait until they get really gross and throw caution to the wind.
Soft Touch Surfaces - Plastic Edition
in General Discussion & Questions · May 4, 2023 04:37I found a thread on solutions for the tacky soft touch surfaces that are metal, but has anyone sorted out anything on plastic? BeoCom 2 bases and now the backs of my BeoLab 9s are starting to degrade and the BeoLab 9s es…
