3 February 2024 at 17:29 in reply to: Remote – Using Multiple B&O Devices (only) in Same Room #52590
GOLD MemberI’d say….if you want a convenient solution, you can have 2 devices controlled.
As already noted, one must be in Option 4 (means pushing the Link butoon before the actual sorce button.All other devices must be in Option 0 and will then have to be contolled manually on the device.
This ‘problem’ has been solved with the newer devices and the Beoremote One/bt, as each device can be adressed individually from one remote.

You probably won’t succeed unless you connect the device via ethernet cable to your homenetwork.
Usually updating the software (of the Beolit 12/Beoplay A8) solves this problem…..once you have gained access to it.

I would not compromise my BG7000.
Why not get at (cheap) turntable, that spins at 78 – og mount the right stylus there?

‘Stream Airplay 2 to a BS Century’….wouldn’t that be (even) more correct?
Despite the fact that a Playmaker only supports AP – the op did not ask for multiroom – I’d recommend the Playmaker…..if he can get one in his area.
This way he’d have both Airplay and a line-in port (with autosense) for the turntable….no fiddling with cables and/or switches.

First of all, the BS4 does not support Dab+.
However, if you are in the UK (which I presume), that should not be a problem….as far as I know there are several Dab stations available there (?).
As I undestand it, you also want to listen to vinyls in the kitchen area (?).
If you install the BS4 (masterlink/option 6/linkroom product), it will be possible to listen to the sources from the main audio setup.
However, you will not be able to listen to Dab radio in the main room/the 9500 – and also not through the 3500.If you’d install the BS4 as the main system, you can connect the (RIAA-enabled) turntable there – but you will not be able to remote controlit…..the AUX-in of the BS4 has no datalink connection (only L/R).
Please note!
For the connection from the 9500 to the BS4 you’ll need masterlink and therefore a converter connected to the 9500. This also means, that you must change the connection to the 3500 to ML as well.The far easiest option would be to have the BS4 as a standalone unit (of cource with speakers) in the kitchen area…..if all you need there is a replacement for the Panasonic Dab.

Das Display und die Fernbedienung einer meiner Essence-boxes…
….ein jetzt älteres iPhone, das nur für diesen Zweck da ist.MM

Danke, aber die haben keine Bedienung oder/und Anzeige am Gerät und keine Fernbedienung – da brauche ich immer das Handy – das will ich n.M. vermeiden, da bin ich Oldschool ?
Dann kann ich dir verraten, daß du nichts finden wirst ?
Alles – was neue Möglichkeiten/Streaming bietet – setzt Apps voraus….und die laufen eben nur über Handy’s/Tablets.Wer ‘Oldschool’ bleiben will, bleibt bei CD’s ?

Meine Meinung zu BS Moment habe ich schon vorher preisgegeben.
Die Moments werden heute so häufig verkauft, weil sie nunmehr nur eingeschränkt nutzbar sind – und weil ‘das Tablet’ sehr anfällig ist.Wenn du schon liebäugelst mit diversen Streamern – die alle auch via Apps benötigen* – warum dann nicht gleich to einem BS Essence MK2 greifen (oder gar zum BS Core).
Hier hast du – zusätzlich zu der App-bedienung – die Möglichkeit die BeoRemote One zu nutzen (z.B für direktes Anwählen von Radiostationen).* Wer fummelt da gerne ‘rum bei dem kleinen Display eines Eversolos?
Hier hättest du auch die Möglichkeit deine BS4 einzubinden – wenn du gelegentlich CD’s hören möchtest (?).
Eine einfache Verbindung vom Line-out/BS4 zu line-in des Essence.
Der Line-eingang dort hat autosense = CD starten und schon hörst du den Ton via Essence und die Lautsprecher, die dann dort angeschlossen sind.Ausserdem wäre es viel einfacher die vorhandenen BL’s da anzuschliessen, als beim Eversolo, Cambridge und co.
….und wer weitere moderne B&O Geräte zu seinem Setup zufügen will, wird das kaum mit Eversolo und co machen können.

@Tignum
Thank you for the ATV overview@Guy
Good idea with the black card ?MM

I have 4 of those.
The first one I bought on the day of launch, as soon as I recognized the potential….the Beolink Multiroom function. It replaced my Playmaker.
My migration from Masterlink towards Network Link had started.As for the other 3 that came afterwards – they are all second hand.
I never concidered the Core.
The Essences are hidden away with sets of speakers connected and do what I expect respectively what I need in my setup…….together with my two M3’s, the M5, my Theatre/LG combo, my small V1/5.1 setup and my old System 6500 (plus several BROnes and Essence Remotes).
They are here to stay!I have no need for a ‘documentation’ – I need what they offer for my listening habits.

The BS Core is a slightly updated Essence MK2 with a somewhat newer hardware and (pribably) longer span for becoming updates.
It has an optical port (a combo port with analog).
The form factor was made so that it can fit into a tile of the Shape setup.
It is meant to be hidden away.It offers very much the same functionality as was built-in to the other audio products based on the ASE platform at the time of their launch.
It works well with the Beolink ecosystem, is controlled via the B&O app, the Beoremote One/bt or simply streamed to via AP2, Chromecast, Spotify Connect….
It still gets updates – just like the Essence MK2.What kind of documentation are you looking for?

Ok – fein.
Nein BS4 hat kein ‘autosense’ bei line-in/AUX.
(A-)Aux muß gewählt werden mittels Beo4.Wenn dort nicht schon A.Aux unter List vorrätig ist, muß dieser Eintrag dort zugefügt werden.
Siehe hier wie das gemacht wird – Seite 11.

That should not be hard at all.
Just swap the cables to the new one including the ir-emitter….no big deal – you’ll maybe need a small piece of adhesive tape.
If the ATV has not yet been setup, this – of course – has to be done.MM

Hallo Drickes
Sorry, ich verstehe dein Anliegen nicht.
Einerseits schreibst du, daß du diesen C-Receiver “über cinch an meine Anlage angeschlossen” hast….
…..andererseits fragst du, ob du den “an die beosound 4 an aux in anschließen” kannst.Ist er jetzt angeschlossen, oder? – und ist das Problem eigentlich nur, daß du wissen möchtest, was gemacht werden muß, um den Ton zu hören?

21 January 2024 at 22:57 in reply to: I was given a box of ~20 year old B&O Stuff, have no idea to get it running #52344These are all items, that have been used in a B&O Masterlink, multiroom setup.
The 1651/1656 are link amplifiers (designed to run passive speaker).
The 1636 is a link box, where you can connect active (Beolab/speakers with their own amp built-in) speakers.
The ir eyes are for receiving control signal (from a B&O remote), going to a source – a videomaster or audiomaster – which you do not have.
The cables are for the Beolabs.
The ML cable/junction box belongs to the previously installed Masterlink chain, that tied all source and linkrooms together as one (audio/Beolink) network.The items can be used, but not primarily on their own…..they depend on the source devices….an B&O audiosystem and/or a B&O tv.

Hallo Dark_Aqua
Wenn die BS Moment und der BV11 mehr oder weniger im selben Raum stehen, würde es sich anbieten die BL18 an den BV anzuschliessen (geht ja auch via WPL).
Der Moment kann so eingerichtet werden, daß er die Lautsprecher des BV’s nutzt, wenn man den benutzt.
Hier/BV11 kann man auch mehrere ‘Lautsprecher-Gruppen’ einrichten – so z.B nur die BL18 für Musik und die BL18 als R/L Kanal und die Lautsprecher im BV11 als Center für Filme usw.
Man könnte auch eine Gruppe mit nur TV-Lautsprecher (so wie jetzt) für spätabentliches Gucken oder wenn andre nicht so sehr gestört werden sollen.
Diese Gruppen können einzelne Quellen zugeordnet werden, damit das meiste automatisiert ist.Wenn die 18 doch lieber beim Moment bleiben sollen, hilft jedoch nichts andres als neue/andre LS zu kaufen.
Die BL 17 würden sich da empfehlen – aber da setzt eigentlich nur das Budget des Hauses die Grenzen…..und der Geschmack.MM

If anyone wants a more technical explanation of this, let me know and I’ll start writing a blog post. ?
I would – but don’t do it ‘just for me’ ?
MM

A number of very credible people interested in the site, so please don’t lose hope ? Let’s wait and see.
Great to hear ?
Meanwhile let us hope that the users of this unique forum will see the worth of keeping it alive.
Although important, it is not just about, who owns or finances such a forum.
It is about the daily applicability of the forum and about people using it….and participating in the threads.
Too many former users have already run away to other platforms and spend their time and – maybe even knowledge – there.
Even if some sort of ‘diversity’ is good – it will still be a challenge for the Beoworld (Forum).MM
