Generally the procedure is different from one version of the Beo4 to another.

Have you tried activating (GO) A.Setup?

If you prefer to buy one….
….you’ll need something like this

Danke dir!

Übrigens, eine andere und wie ich meine, bessere, ist diese.

Etwas teurer, aber dann auch komfortabler, wenn mal eingerichtet.

@David

It needs to be PCM.

@Per

Unlike the Beoworld Forum Discord/(the group there/Beotalk and B&O) is a closed forum….you’ll need an invite.
If you watch the Beotalk YT show, you probably can get an invite from Miki.

Hallo Stefan

Für diesen Oldtimer ist keine Nachrüstung möglich – es gibt für keine von den B&O-geräten Nachrüstmöglichkeiten!

Beocenter 9300 hat jedoch Anschlussmöglichkeit für externe Geräte…….DAB+ adapter gibt es jede Menge auf dem Markt.
Diese müssen dann extern bedient werden.

Die einzige Möglichkeit – die ich kenne – für eine einigermaßen integrierte Lösung ist die von Oneremote.dk.

Best consult an installer.
They might have installed one of these recently – maybe they have the spare parts.

Could you maybe describe what you actually have!

Maybe someone else can chime in ?
It is a long time since I dealt with that – do not remember exactly.
I’d have to stand in front of one to recall it.

However this is what it looks like, when installed:

I agree regarding the settings of the ATV!

Furthermore please read the article that Geoff Martin wrote years ago on his website.

Here are the main points:

”……you still find that the dialogue is a little hard to understand, and the surrounds are a little hot (this is often the case when your sofa and the surround loudspeakers are all situated against the same wall, you should not be afraid to do the following:

make the centre channel one or two milliseconds early. You can do this by telling your surround processor that it’s about 30 to 60 cm farther away than it really is.
raise the level of the centre channel 1 or 2 dB
drop the level of the surrounds as much as necessary – in my experience, it’s not unusual to have to drop them by as much as 6 dB if you’re against the same wall with them. (Note that, if you have a BeoPlay V1, a BeoVision 11 or a BeoSystem 4, you can do this using the “Fader” adjustment in the Sound menus. This will merely control the relative levels of the Front and Surround / Back loudspeakers – so it’s a one-fader solution to doing it manually for each loudspeaker output.)”

The Almando products have been discussed here several times throughout the years.

There are mixed reviews….often people returns to a B&O solution (the BS Theatre) after a while.

I would advice to wait for posts with positive reviews for Almando, before purchasing – in the meantime you could search the forums including the old ones.

Personally I am looking forward to the solution from Neomesteren. – the products, that they have up ‘till now, are excellent.

Anyway – it will be very hard to get the integration with projector/screen and tv, that you aim for.
Tv’s are getting bigger and bigger, which leaves less need for B&O to provide this kind of solution.
That said….it might be possible with a great deal of DIY.
Some have used a BeoSystem 4.

Running a BS Theatre with a projector/screen solo, however is not a big problem, but you will probably need a professional installer for that.

As for ‘Brodersen timer etc’ – I have no idea…never heard of that.

Finally:
I agree with Peter in his post: “you need to think about what you want to achieve”.

Best luck finding the best solution.

Hi Johan

Out of interest…….which (audio) sources are you able to use, when at the BV10?
And how do you start these with the Beo4?

MM

Location: Flensborg————Danmark

[Millemis]

That will be hard to beat 😉

MM

[Millemis]

Yes, that is true!
You simply ‘tell’ the Theatre which speakers are connected and the DSP takes that into account, when you do the setup/the Room Compensation, the Listening Groups…….

As for which speakers – this is hard to say, because it depends on your room/placement options, your needs/wishes, your budgets.
The BL4’s can be used, however most people would advice you to stay away from them – they often fail.

Height speaker at the back surely are recommended, but only if you also have surrounds…the 18’s is a good choice for this/for surrounds.

Many people would place the 18’s up front, because they primarily want to listen to music from them. Again…it depends on your room and your wishes/needs.
In case you’d place the 18’s as fronts, use any other speakers as surrounds.
An old golden rule is to recomment using the same (type) of speakers for fronts and surrounds.
The heights then can be added along the way – especially, if you are primarily watching movies and/or listening to music in Atmos.

Easy to find out

As for delay, please have a look at this older Beoworld thread here

Why not simply keep the 3200 and connect the WiiM there.

If you dislike the presence of the 3200, go for an Essence MK2, a Beosound Core – they can be hidden away.
Just connect the WiiM to the Line-in there, if you are not pleased with the options, that the Essence/Core offers.

These two B&O devices would give you the option of having a (B&O) remote control, by the way.

You will not be able to turn on the 5’s this way!

A quote from Steve in another related post (there are several, if you search here):

“Unfortunately with Beolab 5 it is not possible to activate the speakers via a voltage trigger – a coded Datalink signal is needed (either via the Powerlink socket or IR remote control) in order to wake the speakers before use.”

I had that too – the post was reactivated after connecting the admins.

Seems to be a bug…..something that automaticly happens.
Maybe the admins should look into that.

You do not need a PL input – you need a PL output to connect the BL9’s to.

Furthermore – if you want the sound from the LG tv – you best buy the new Beosound Core Connect, which has a HDMI/ARC input for the HDMI output labelled ARC/eARC on the tv.

You will not be able to control the tv with a B&O remote (the Beoremote One/BT), however you can control the sources of the Core Connect. Alternatively you could use the Bang &Olufsen app for this.

P.S. You will need adapter cables (RJ45 to DIN-female Powerlink) to connect the BL’s to the Core Connect.

Yesterday was the funeral ceremony for Viggo.

It started in the main church in Struer with nearly 500 people attending.
Family, friends, running and biking friends, colleagues including former colleagues, current and past employers, neighbours, costumers and business contacts in the crowded church.

Thereafter almost all followed the hearse and the 5 service vans of the Bremdal company with the B&O logo and lots and lots of cars drove in a cortege to the shops in Bremdal, past the home of Viggo and his wife and further on to the museum in a former school in Resenstad not far from Struer.

After a couple of hour with lunch and coffee, speaks, anecdotes and friendly conversations at the tables – how did you get to know Viggo and so on? – there was an opportunity to visit the huge collection there.

Amazing what Viggo and his sons have collected there!
Viggo was a lovely, gentle and certainly a diligent, hardworking man.

Here is a sneak peak into the rooms of the collection – image all these former classrooms left and right filled with B&O products from the early days on and up till now…..

….and the link to the video, that Steve made there a couple of years ago:

The world largest collection of B&O products in Resenstad near Struer.
