Thanks, I'll give that a go when I get home :)

Would a Beovision 8 also be an ASE product? The link you provided only shows specifically audio products.
Thanks in advance

The BV8’s were - in general - Masterlink-based products.

ML is the Beolink platform, that predated the newer NetworkLink-based platforms (ASE and Mozart).

P.S.
The Masterlink-based products could - and still can - be integrated with the NetWork-based products (to some degree) by using the NL/ML Converter.
That converter has been out of production for a while, but can be bought secondhand.

Thank you MM, my mistake I thought the BV8 was a NL product.

I have a ML stereo, the NL/ML converter and a Theatre. Reason I look for an ASE product is that B&O support explained to me in response to my request to activate an audio source from my Theatre that the Theatre which runs on Mozart is backwards compatible with previous generation so that if I had a Core (they specifically used Core as an example but I would think any ASE product would work?)  the Theatre could activate the sources available on the Core.
So, I would be hoping that if my ML sources (via the NL/ML converter) would show on the Core then my Theatre could activate these ML sources from the living room. I was told that my NL/ML converter alone would not be enough.

I think to recollect you have mentioned you have a Beosound Essence, if mk2 it would be ASE. Can you activate ML sources available on the Essence directly from your Theatre?

Yes, the Essence MK2 is an ASE-based product.
(They refer to the Core, because the Core is a product current for sale).
And I can start e.g. a CD from my 6500 system via the app or the remote on my Essence boxes.

Of course I can not know exactly, what the support answered/meant.
But when you refer to: “…..Theatre could activate the sources available on the Core”, I can tell you that that is wrong….
….or only half of the thruth.

Sure, you can listen to a ML source (connected via the NL/ML setup), when correct set up.
But there is no integration like it was with the previous (ASE-based) tv solutions (BV11 etc).
It is a fact that many already have complained about!

For time being the only way is to start the ML source on the ML device and then Join in via the Theatre.
I e.g. start my CD6500 manually and push ‘Lyt med’/‘Join’ on the Beoremote One, that is connected to the Theatre.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, MM. from what I recall (I actually disconnected my NL/ML Converter as I didn’t think it added much anymore when I replaced my BV11 with a Theatre setup) I could also start a source and then “join” from the Theatre. Can’t remember if it was sufficient to start from the ML stereo or I had to start the stereo from the NL/ML Converter. Will try later today.
I have also responded to B&O support to ask them to clarify what adding a Core would achieve. Upon reading their response again it is rather unclear and vague. Will report back here if I learn something.
The Theatre is a great product but it would have been even better if it could integrate with previous products better. If ASE products could do that I can’t help but wonder if the Mozart platform was a step backwards but perhaps it has other advantages I am not aware about.

I have a BLC connected to a Beomaster 7000. I can use the B&O app to use the Core to select and play a Beomaster source but if I use the BLC in the App it sits there for a few moments and the drops back to no source. The BLC is set to VMaster. What am I doing wrong.

Has anyone lost the radio functions from both the beoremote 1 and the app? I really don't wont to do another reset!

Thanks :)
