โHow was it different from using an Essence or Core?\n\n\u00a0โ
Modern tvโs (but not all) have an optical digital output, that can be used with the Core.
No modern tv has analog audio output and โ for the Essence โ youโd have to use a Digital to Analog Converter in addition.
However every (modern) tv has a HDMI/(e)ARC socket.
That is what is used on the Hall Audio Streamer.
It is more reliable, turns on/off with the signal.
(That is the port used with soundbars).
You simply use the original tv remote.
So, the BS Core can be used โ however, those, who are willing to spend what that costs, will rather buy the Connect Core insteadโฆ.
โฆ..a device that B&O waited very (too) long to introduce and that basicly does, what the Hall Streamer does with the addition of being able to work inside the Beolink network/the Mozart platform.
The Hall Streamer was very popular โ it will surely be missed.
Those who are in need of a HDMI/ARC box may have a look on the solution from OneRemote.
