Another benefit of having a NL-based network is, that you can start your listening experience in any room and then take that to another room, if you want to/need to.

Of course, if you have – and are satisfied with it – a fully working ML-based network, piping the options/sources from e.g. an Essence MK2 into the AudioMaster will be sufficient.
Even better would be to have it integrated with a NL/ML Converter to the ML network.

One of the beautiful things about B&O gear is, that you have many possibilities of combining new with old 😀

I have 4 of them 😉🤗😂😀

That heavily depends on where you are located.

In Denmark these tv’s are regularly dumped….no worth at all.
Although the MX7000 was the best of the MX tv’s, there were too many of them.

So – the price would be mainly shipping costs, handling (and maybe tarifs).

On the other hand….there is a collector for everything – you just need to find him 😉

By the way….……which were the highlights of the tour for you?

MM

Location: Flensborg————Danmark

[Millemis]

Not that I know of (but I do not know everything 🤗)

What I know is, that it will be possible – and much easier – if you’d use the NL/ML Converter.

I did not take many photos – here are a few

Thank you very much for the photos…..
…….I know there were many more taken  😀

And thank you guys, for meeting up with you.
Got to chat with some of you – unfortunately not all – so now you are not just a Beoworld ‘nickname’ to me anymore.

I hope you enjoyed the tour as much as I did, that you learned a lot – also a bit about Denmark.

I hope that you are safe home by now – or at least arrived safe at your next destination.

A big thank you to Mark for making this possible – well done!

Thanks for that tip!

I guess most of us will need a bit more information about that/about how to control that with ‘the remote’.

Hi Guy

I must contradict you, I fear.
It is however, a long time ago, but if I recall well:
At some point with the BV7 MK1 B&O used the so-called ‘DVI-solution’ for the HD-tuner…..because it offered a better PQ.
This was indeed ‘internal connected’.

I know of no solution to revert this, apart from opening the tv etc.

@Alcy.
There are plenty of BV7 later MK-versions to get at a very low price…..so why worry with this dinosaur.
Except – of course – you like tingling and solving problems 😉😀

P.S.

There are more knowledgeable people on this subject than me – the only problem will be, if they are present on the forum nowadays.

That’s very disappointing. I fly home on 12th. My bad.

I think Steve (Sounds Heavenly) has a video showcasing this collection. You can almost smell that distinctive B&O power supply perfume from looking at the photos from Google maps 😊

I hope a few of you on the tour can find the time to make the visit.

According to the latest mail from Mark the visit to the Bremdal history collection is now (again) part of our tour.
It also seems that visiting the Bremdal Pre-Owned B&O store will be possible.

Thank you, Mark for that.

Agree….and it is ‘enough’ for me as well.

It is what my cd’s have given me for decades now…..which still is pretty fine.

@cklit

I surely did so.

First thing they asked, was “which speakers I have connected to my Essence MK2’s”…..
…..as if that would matter 🤗

So I had to explain how it – the lossless connect thingy – works.
From their answers (3 different persons were involved) however, I am under the impression that they still do not understand it.

“We will forward your inquiry to our technical department” and later on “an update from our technical team. At this time, there are no plans to support Lossless Spotify to ASE products”.
And: “It should be supported in the near future for our Mozart-based products.” – a weird statement, since it already is working there.

This said….I had the opportunity to make my point e.g. the wish for support for Spotify Connect Lossless also on the ASE platform!
What could I expect more from ‘the support’ 🤔

What about the ase products? 😉

Same question here @cklit

MM

I did some testing at home.

The Theatre works just fine with Spotify Connect Lossless.

The Theatre is on the Mozart platform, so I would assume that this is the case gor all Mozart products.

None of my ASE products (Essence MK2 and alike) do support the lossless version.

The question then is…will there be an upgrade for those?
For my M5 and the M3’s I could not care less – but for my Essences (with good speakers connected) it would be nice…..at least to be able to know, whether I can hear a difference or not 😂

MM

I have never heard of anyone, who has done this – the screen surely won’t be available anymore.

And it would be cheaper to buy another preused BV8-40 instead….
….depending on where you are located.

MM

It is doable (to some extent), but….
……I am pretty sure that you will be disappointed.

On the BC2 there is an AUX-in, which can be used for an analog source.
If you want to get the sound out of the Samsung tv, you will need HDMI/ARC to R/L analog out.
This can then be connected to the AUX-input of the BC2.
There might (or might not) be some sound delay problems there.
Controlling all this will require some clicks (on the Beo4 and on the tv remote)….not really a WAF-thing.

You can – if you use a Scart to HDMI Converter – get the picture and sound from the BC2 to the Samsung.
But you will – in that case – not be able to get the sound back to the BC2 setup.
There will be conflicts controlling that.

This can only be avoided – as you know – using a B&O tv-master.
That makes the difference between a B&O tv solution and a modern tv like the Samsung obvious.

Feel free to experiment, though.

Personally I’d go for a BV10, which will work flawless.
Or a BV11 plus a NL/ML Converter.

So, just saw that my Spotify accound now is updated to the lossless version.

And did a couple of quick test before going to bed.
The lossless version plays just fine on the iPad.
But neither my Essence MK2 nor the Theatre does support the lossless version when using Connect.
I suppose then, that the B&O devices need an update in order to do this.

Funnily enough…when one airplays to the devices the lossless version is active on the iPad.
However, that makes not much sense, since Airplay 2 will only transfer in a lossy version (meaning, what arrives at the choosen speaker is not lossless).

I made a request through the app, if there will be an update and when.
I advice all Spotify Premium users to do the same – so that B&O knows that there is a need for it.
