Trying to connect BEO6 to Beomaster 5 / Beosound 5 - Does BM5 need to be on wifi instead of ethernet?
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Nov 26, 2021 18:34 GMT

This information on connecting to the BM5 is on page 13 of the Beo6 Guide.

Like I said in the previous post, there must be a way to set the BM 5 server address. I found a thread on here (Beo 6 and Beomaster 5) that states the obvious, you set the IP address of the Beomaster 5 in the Settings/Wi…

Thanks Keith. Right after messaging you, I re-upped my gold membership and corrected the email address. Please send again. I used the member-written guide in the wiki to get to where I did. I did not find a good explanat…

Hi fellow Beo6 denizens. I finally dedicated a day to getting my Beo6's working for the first time. I got the configurator tool on my 64 bit Asus NX90 (The David Lewis designed laptop with B&O speakers), and to my utter …

I use the xbox one which can be mounted vertically on the back, and plays BR 4K and 3D bluray. You also can play games and stream from it, and microsoft will support for a long time into the future.

There is a mark I and Mark II DVD1 with different menus. I will check if I have the manuals.

You should do it! I only use BL5000s or BL7000s with the MCL2AVs in two way mode. I have the ultra rare XTRA pucks for hanging the BL7000s, but I think the capacitors went bad, so Im using a standard white MCL transceive…

BV7 40 MK3 Surround sound question
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 18, 2020 04:31 GMT

Well, in many home theaters, there is a good place for rear speakers but not surround speakers. When 5.1 came out, people had rear speakers only. I find that the surround channel is better for my rear speakers with my BV…

I was utterly flummoxed by this too, and disassembled some of the housing on the TV to figure it out; and failed. As champ said, yank them down hard.

BeoSound 9000 Aux Port
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 17, 2020 07:39 GMT

As Steve said, most definitely both. This creates a means to connect a Masterlink Audio Master (eg BS9000) to an MCL Audio Master (eg BC9500). Using a Beolink converter would create a "fight" between the two audio master…

Tonight, I tried connecting an unused Beogram 5500 (with internal RIAA Amp fitted) to the CD socket on my MCL2AV in my office link room (that has Pentas, an MX5500 TV and a Beocenter 2 for playing DVDs on the MX and a Be…

Beocenter 9500 Tape mk2 return to mk1 ?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 18, 2020 20:29 GMT

I have 2 9500's. On one of them, the tape mechanism is held together with a plastic frame that crumbled. It appears that the frame and mechanism are common with the Beocord 5500 (I think it is the 5500). So if that is yo…

Beolink coax video distribution problem with Beosystem 3 and BV7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 12, 2020 04:55 GMT

Since I'm in quarantine (in my own house!) due to a Covid exposure, I thought I would get Beolink video working so my GF and I can watch the same show at the same time, but in different rooms. My dealer observed I'm prob…

The Soundsmith website says they provide a full 2 year warranty, with free re-tipping in that period if there is an issue. Where did you get the information that they did not have a warranty? -Gregg

Beogram 7000: No datalink, no sound, all play functions normal
in BeoGram · Oct 26, 2020 20:44 GMT

Thanks all for the ideas everyone. I disassembled the DIN plug, and sure enough, every connection was broken except ground. Soldered on a new plug and it is 100% functional! -Gregg

They do exist as original white. Just got one from my dealer. Smooth finish unlike the gray ones. B&O logo is a decal and not raised letters.

Cardboard tubes which are forms for pouring concrete to make pillars would work - they come in long lengths and different diameters. Wrap and tape bubble wrap for a snug fit. Remove the base first to keep the diameter re…

Beogram 7000: No datalink, no sound, all play functions normal
in BeoGram · Oct 3, 2020 01:50 GMT

I tested my Beogram 7000 with my known good Beomaster 4500 (the Beogram 4500 works fine with it). Pressing play the tone arm moves properly and plays the record; and the cartridge is picking up sound. However, datalink i…
