During Room Sense, Theatre + BL6000 as rear/sides, I assume you can hear both channel during the initial connectivity test?

Also, put the BL6000 in “free” setting with the switch hidden in the base.

Also, check the measured distances of the BL6000 calculated by Room Sense from your listening position. If that is also correct, then Room Sense and attenuation levels will be as intended

During Room Sense I hear the BL6000 loud and clear.

They are in "free" setting.

The distances are correct but they are very quiet compared to the Theatre itself and on lower volumes I hardly hear them at all. But maybe that is correct.

To my knowledge there are no ‘position’ settings on the 6000.
https://bangolufsenassistentgohe.blob.core.windows.net/manuals/SPEAKERS/BEOLAB_6000/beolab6000_userguide_english.pdf

However, on the 6002 there are.
Any Beolab with these setting options should always be set to ‘Free’.
This is how they were measured for the Theatre.

MM,

using your LG remote, hit the mute button at least 3 times in quick succession.

this brings up a dialogue box. At the bottom, there is 3 activated sliders. No.2 is the logo kill slider

Purchased some 18s as a rear set of speakers to go with my theatre. Happy Christmas to me :)

After checking and seeing that there was not an update to the public B&O app, I emailed Beocare asking to get the latest beta version of the B&O app. As soon as I sent the email, I saw that a new public version had become available. lol

With the new B&O app update, adding Receiver 1 speakers did not crash the app. If I tried to include the Receiver 1 speakers for Room Sense, Room Sense would give me a message that it failed. However, if I run Room Sense without the Receiver 1 speakers, I can save the listening position and add the Receiver 1 speakers later using "Advanced."

Also, note that we can now assign the "Center" role to the Theatre's Front and Left Front-Firing speakers. I'm interested to compare the difference with these added speakers.

I can already notice a huge difference adding a BL2 and two BL4000 speakers for front height to my existing setup of BL9 for front, BL1 for surround, BL9 for back and BL4000 for surround height.

How perfect that this coincides with today's release of "House of the Dragon" on UHD. I'm eager to try out the scene with two dragons chasing and battling each other.

Do you think the benefit is more from the 4000s or the 2? I have 28s as fronts, 1s as rears, and have a 19 on it’s way to try.
