Beosound Core versus Beoconnect Core

[sorenfelden]

Hi, can anybody clarify if Beosound Core can stream wirelessly to wireless B&O speakers, but that the more recent Beoconnect Core cannot?

Why on earth would they take out such crucial functionality – it makes no sense…?

On the positive side, to my understanding, the Beoconnect has the advantage of being able to control a non-B&O TV with the Beoremote 1, if the Beoconnect it wired to the TV.

Sorry it’s me again  – no, the Beosound Core can’t connect to speakers wirelessly either. It performs the same function as the Beoconnect Core – essentially that of a streamer and preamp, but it runs on an older platform with fewer features and minus the HDMI, although it does have an optical output which is useful, unlike the Beoconnect Core.

I’m pretty sure it’s only the TVs that have ever been able to connect to other speakers wirelessly – no Beosound ‘system’ ever has. The Transmitter 1 is a standalone Wisa transmitter box that you can connect a stereo or 5.1 audio system (B&O or otherwise) to and then connect to 2/2.1/5.1 WISA speakers wirelessly. Most recently the Beosound Theater can connect to other WISA speakers wirelessly. I think those are the only B&O options.
