Playmaker LINE-IN Source

Dear people living in the Beoworld I have a sound-system containing two beolab3, a Sony Bravia TV and a Playmaker.

Re: Playmaker LINE-IN Source

[quote user="Rubani"] It must have something to do with the phono cable / TV.[/quote] Just an idea ... Are you 100% sure your Sony TV offers LINE OUT ? A lot of today's TVs have just LINE INs and DIGITAL OUT( via Cinch or TOSLINK) In that case you could use the headphones output of your...

I am impressed...

Re: The Playmaker is now official!

[quote user="paddy2042"] Can anyone tell me if it connects to the speakers via power link? The drawing seems to indicate two ethernet connectors. How does it work then? [/quote] In the future all PowerLink connetions will use 8pin RJ45 "Ethernet" sockets and plugs instead of 8 pin...
