BeoLab2 wirelessly to BeoSound Core

[Nick Vilhelmsen]

Hi,

 

I have a set of BeoLab 3 hanging on my wall in the living room. They are connected to a BeoSound Core for me to be able to stream to them via AirPlay2. At the moment I’m missing a bit more low end in the sound, and therefor want to add a BeoLab 2 to the system. The problem I’m facing is that where I want to place the BeoLab 2, there is only a power outlet and no way of getting a PowerLink cable pulled through. So I’m wondering if there is a solution (some sort of box behind the BeoLab 2) to make it have a wireless connection to the BeoSound Core so it can be added as a complete system together with the BeoLab 3?

 

Thanks.

I think the best/only option is going to be to get a B&O Transmitter 1 (the Core has no wireless/WISA built in to it; you’d connect via Powerlink or optical from Core to T1) and Receiver 1s for both your BL3s and the BL2, then transmit wirelessly to all of them. In that configuration the T1 will manage the crossover between the speakers as well which works well (I’ve tried that with BL18s and BL19).

I can’t think of any way that you could continue to connect to the BL3s wired and a BL2 wirelessly as the same time, but others might know better.

Ah that sounds like a solution that would work, I will look a bit more into that solution. Thank you.
