Connecting Beolab 17 + sub + turntable using Core - how?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 18, 2022 22:18I’m looking at the Core to see if it will fulfil my connection needs to Beolab 17 speakers. Actual hard specs for the Core (as to what each connection point actually does) seem to be non-existent. I’d be grateful if you …
