I would like to know if anyone has made a lead to run a B&W PV1 sub using the PL from a BL6000.

Can this be done?

I dont mind if I have to switch the sub on manually , I just want the sound!!! 

 

Thanks in advance

Just use a regular Din- RCA converter cable with all 4 Rca connectors. The 2 connectors that normally is carrying the "in" signal is carrying the R&L "out" signal from your Powerlink socket. I use this to get sound from my Ouverture to a Rega amp powering my B&W P5 Speakers.

If you want the sub to turn on when using your B&O system, just get a TV-powersaving plug (have no idea of the english word, I use one of these to turn on the Rega amp,

HI,

the DIN-to-RCA connector i used with a Magnat active sub:

The PV1 has auto sense on / stand by,
so it switches on/off with the rest of your setup.
Very nice sub by the way !
500 W ICE power ! 
🙂
