Thank you.

Update:

I have now set up my Beolab9s with the Playmaker and it works just fine. Very nice that I can also use my Beoremote4 with the PM out of the box. The Beomaster5/Beosystem5 is now in storage, but to be frank I already miss the beauty and functionality of it even though it is now an outdated system.  However, if the PM keeps up its promises there is no doubt that this is the way for me to go and further down the road I may get an upgrade.

This could be a B&O Core but maybe this is overkill as I do not need the multiroom function.

So for future refence: Which audiostreamer will in terms of music, deliver the best quality for my Beolab9s?

[Fisp]

I certainly want to get the best quality out of my BL9, which I have been enjoying with my BM5 for many years.

However, the Core is pricey and I might want to try out Playmaker first and maybe upgrade later.

Thanks.

Tak for det.

I will get the required cable.

Thanks.

It will be hardwired – like my BM5.

I am m in Copenhagen and have just requested information about a second-hand Playmaker with 6 months  guarantee. The price is 950DK.

Do you know if I can use my existing BL9 cables or do I need new ones.

[Fisp]

I seems to me then that the Playmaker is the obvious choice for me. I will only be listening to Apple Music from now on and the ability to control Playmaker from the Beo4 is just an extra bonus.

What strikes me is that the Playmaker seems to be a simple and effective solution that I have never heard of or seen before.

I have no idea of pricing and availability but I will start looking for second-hand one.

Thanks a lot.

I am currently streaming music from my iPhone to BM5, using Airport Express and a Behringer U-Control UCA222 USB, and this works fine.

However, I am planning to discard my BM5 altogether and stream directly to my Beolab 9.

If I understand you correctly the easiest and cheapest way is to stream via. Playmaker or Essence mk1. Is that correct?

Thank you.

[Fisp]

Thanks a lot.

[Fisp]

Yes, that is what I’m doing now. I wanted to go directly to AUX via a button, but that does not seem to be possible.

I have the Beoremote6, though, and here I have an AUX “button”.

[Fisp]

Thanks.

I’m using a Beomaster5/Beosound5 system.
