This is how I have my Horizon setup, with the Shape as part of the surround setup. I was sent the attached document which explains the behaviour of the Shape when connected and used as a Powerlink speaker. In your case I…

Send Beo4 commands from Home Assistant through an IR proxy
in Home Automation · Oct 13, 2026 09:53 GMT

Great, I'll get the thingy and have an experiment! That was my thought, to have HA use its beoplay integration to control the Horizon. A very round about way of adding IR to the Horizon, but it'll make him happy to have …

Send Beo4 commands from Home Assistant through an IR proxy
in Home Automation · Oct 11, 2026 10:02 GMT

What an interesting and perhaps (for me) timely post My husband recently got a 'toy' Magicians Wand which you can programme with IR commands to turn on TV, etc... Only to be disappointed when I told him it wouldn't work …

BeoPlay V1 - surround setup help?
in BeoVision · Sept 17, 2026 14:40 GMT

The v1 can do the decoding, so I don’t think the Almando is necessary or helpful as the speakers still don’t have Powerlink inputs. Option 1 I is the simplest, and whilst potentially not ideal, you could use a power link…

Beolab 17 - Powerlink vs Toslink input
in BeoLab · Sept 15, 2026 15:06 GMT

I recently gained a pair of BL17, I've had them connected via PL up until now. I am considering a change in speaker placement which would enable me to connect them via optical toslink to my Beosound Core. Any thoughts fr…

in BeoSound · Jul 7, 2026 10:37 GMT

What a wonderful project and reuse of the BeoSound 5! I wondered if its possible to also start music streams from ASE products like a Core or Essence? I think I understand this currently does similar, but to the Sonos/Bl…

Beosound Shape Fault

Just a quick update on this in case this helps others in the future, its fixed! Several of the capacitors on the internal PSU in the Amplifier Tile were failing, photos attached showing the 'pregnant' capacitors. I frien…

Beosound Shape Fault
in BeoSound · Feb 18, 2026 15:25 GMT

Hi all, I've had a good search through and can't find any similar instances of this issue. It seems I have a faulty amp in my Shape and wanted to see if anyone was aware of common faults or fixes? On startup from cold, e…
