      I am trying to determine, what is the “Syncr” or sync cable , that needs to run between the two Beolab 5 speakers.     I’ve looked at the manual and can’t tell, and I don’t have access to the speakers right now, they are in storage.   I have to run some wires in the floor, before it’s finished and need to locate the cable.    I’ll be using these with Sonos, so I have the other connections, just not the sync cable.

          I must have missed that.  The manual I found online, described the jack, but not what kind of connector it was.    So it’s a 3.5mm stereo cable.  That’s an easy find on Amazon then.   Thanks so much!

            Hi MMC,

            The sync cable is specially wired, so a regular 3.5mm minijack cable won’t work. However, this is rarely needed.

            Its aim is to keep the speakers at a matched volume level when using the line input, but they won’t normally require this unless one speaker is hidden out of sight from the remote control (and I don’t advise this anyway as it would spoil the sound!)

            If you really want a Sync cable then I can make one for you via my sponsor link below, but they are rarely needed.

            Kind regards, Steve.
