I’ve updated my setup with two Beolab 28’s and set them up as fronts.
Sound is amazing what a upgrade from the beolabs 9.

I do however run in a problem. Whenever i just stream music too them they work fine (coupled with WiSa)

But when i use the theatre coupled through WiSA with the beolabs 28. The signal sometimes just drop, you can hear it clearly it does pick it up again in a second though. However the connection is completely stable according to the configuration view.

Any ideas why this would happen? Theatre is connected through Wifi as the Beolabs 28 are. Only other device between the 2 beolabs are the Apple TV (Wifi aswell)

I have a Mesh setup which is super stable so i can’t imagine any problems with that. Seems something from the Theatre itself. I can connect the Theatre with a network cable if needed. But who know might be a software bug?

i had all these issues, why not powerlink everything - that was the end of my issues
Wireless issues are nothing new with B&O.  If you are able to I would for sure run a cat-7 cable to the speakers as it works 100% of the time.

Location: Toronto, Canada

Too bad, guess powerlink is the only option then. They do sound amazing makes up for it, think I’m in love.

When picking them up I had the opportunity too listen too the 90’s. Just wow if money wouldn’t be a obstruct I would buy them blindly.
I’m not sure I understand the issue or reasoning.
When you play to the Beolab 28 only, they are working without the Theatre right? If so they are on Wi-Fi and have good connection.

When you use the wireless connection between the Theater and the Beolab 28 they are using a wireless wisa connection (rather than Wi-Fi) between the Theater and the Beolab 28’s. It is not your standard Wi-Fi so a wired Ethernet cable to the Beolab 28’s with Internet connection would not improve the connection.
However a Powerlink cable between the Theatre will replace the Wisa connection and thus eliminate a dropout (obviously Powerlink is nowadays in the RJ45 format as well).

Sorry if I misunderstood your post though.
I would like to have a 7.1.4 surround setup. I do have the folowing speakers: Beolab 18 as front, Beolab 17 as Surround and Beolab 17 as Back. Why doesn’t roomsense configure the Virtual speakers: Right & Left Elevated Virtual and Right & Left Wide Virtual. I’m able to add them in the config of my Listening Position, but with no distance or Sound Pressure levels.
Hi, The automatic setup will never recommend the Virtual outputs - so, if you want to include them, then you have to add them manually. The Speaker Distances and Speaker Levels are adjustments to compensate for the physical locations and acoustical behaviour of the REAL outputs (including external loudspeakers) and the listening position. Since the signals of the virtual loudspeakers are actually produced by the Left and Right Front-firing REAL outputs, the Speaker Distances and Speaker Levels for those are automatically used by the virtual outputs. Regarding a different question above about True Image - it makes decisions" based on the Speaker Roles that are used in a Listening Position, irrespective of whether the outputs producing those Roles are "real" or "virtual". Hope this helps.
PLEASE READ before sending me a Personal Message.

If you have questions about or problems with B&O equipment, these should be directed through your dealer and/or B&O's Customer Service department.

I cannot be a "short circuit", bypassing these communication channels.

Thanks

Today I connected my Blu-Ray player to HDMI A of the BeoSound Theatre. I would have assumed I could then control basic functions of the Blu Ray player via CEC but it doesn’t control anything at all.
I know I can connect IR PUC cable but would have thought basic functions via CEC would suffice.

What am I missing please? I’ve left “disable CEC” to off in the “source startup behavior” menu.
Check the settings inside your BR-player. The Oppo-105D for instance has a setting to disable and is disabled by default.

You will also see that CEC only covers basic functions and is rather slow/laggy. PUC is much better.
