Basicly you can do just like you can with all previous (after BV7/BSys3) systems =

You can give any speaker any role you’d want to!

In case of having two capable speakers, that are assigned as FR and FL, you’d probably be best off with using the L/C/R of the Theatre as one big C/center speaker.

If might also be interesting to try using the Theatre as L/C/R and the – in your case BL18’s – as LWide and RWide. That might be good in certain rooms.

I expect that we will soon read more about this from Geoff Martins pen.

Will be interesting too how the up- and sidefiring speakers can be used…….especially when one has no native Atmos track playing.
(My guess is that they will be used for the speakers/all speakers to adapt better to the room……after a calibration has been done).

I guess we will see other videos explaining the setup with an LG-tv.

At one point in the videos you could see the phrase ‘generic tv’ on screen.

It may have been an LG that we see there, but the videos obviously mainly were about the different placement options for the BS Theatre.

Also (in the last part about using the microphone) exactly the same sequenze has been used. Seems to be mixed from different sources.

It’s funny that there (with one or two exceptions) was no mentioning of a required ethernet connection between tv and soundcenter, as we know it from the previous LG-based Beovisions in the new install videos.

Or was what we saw not LG-tv’s, but another brand, just a generic tv?

We still need to know how the unit (including the LG-tv functions) is controlled with a Beoremote One.

Sounds like a faulty HDMI cable to me.

Have you tried to ask your neighbour WHY he uses your speakers?

Maybe he does not know how not to do it?

Anyway, how does he benefit from using your speakers ?

Sorry to say it…..

Do you have any front speakers (L/R) connected?

MCL2P is not a link product!

It is ‘just’ an amplifier!!

@pepps

Did you configure the BV7 to use the PL output (where the 2P is connected) as rear/surround speaker?

@ Die Bogener

I certainly do not agree!

One speaker should be enough ?

@splud

The short answer is No!

However – since you thought of ‘adding’ a BS Theatre, why not just add the extra costs for an LG tv, thatreally is the least expensive part of the package.

And repairing the failing speakers as well as the ‘panel upgrade’ (whatever you mean by that) won’t come cheap either.

Sorry for the BV11, which is such a nice and also capable tv.

 

P.S. Maybe you could share what is wrong with ‘half of the speakers’….are you sure, that they are damaged?

For sure interesting reading, but… doesn’t the Theatre have 27 output paths? Or do I mis interpreter the system?

 

 

8 plus 8 plus 11 is 27 ?

I used to hate Giro 413, when I was a kid – it was music for the generation of my parents….old boring stuff.

This is something that belongs in a museum.

I find it nice that Geoff has collected the ‘real thing’.
