Thank you Guy! Yes, the text is readable. The adaptor looks exactly the same as seen for the speaker phone.

I have a universal adaptor (no usb plug) with 5V and 2A max., meaning that up to 2A all different devices can be powered like phones, speakers, cameras, Router, etc. It also offers different adaptors for the DC pin plug. I will try this one and report back.

Kind regards,

Rolf

What about the BLC ´s software version? It should be on 1.4.3.19864 as the latest – and final – version. Is it really 1.4.6.1? Cannot say anything about Spotify, running Deezer and Tidal. To my knowledge, the reason why B&O had Deezer built in and not Spotify was, that Spotify would not allow for multiroom distribution.

BS Core and BLC configurations: I run an Essence MK II and a core MK II (as BS Shape) with Deezer and Tidal, and it works flawless in my ML / NL network with four BLC (two are connected to two BLC 1611 😄).

I hope you find the solution soon!

I was not aware that the covers are available for BL 8000. I checked on the skiniplay website, lots of designs, wow. They are looking great! Are you satisfied with the quality and sound performance?

Ah, that is annoying. But, of course I had the same experience in the other direction. I used to shop B&O once in a while on the island, then, after the Brexit it has been impossible to purchase anything for an appropriate price, taxes and fees are increasing the costs tremendously. I hope you will find another solution soon, it is really nice to have this beautiful instrument hovering on the wall 👌😄.

Hi,

I do not know if you have already been successful and got one. If not, maybe you find this offer from Bremdal Radio interesting. This item should be very hard to find.

That is looking very good Mark! Can´t wait to see all three forums together. Am I correct, that in the course of the last few weeks, more and more links from the forum are showing up again in google search after a time when there where none?

Kind regards,

Rolf

Hi Bart,

if you choose to get a BM 6500 (or 7000), you could connect both units, the Horizon and the BM 6500 via a Powerlink switch from oneremote.dk to your BL 9. I am using two of these switches to connect my BS 3 and my BC 9500 to a pair of BL 5000 (front) and a pair 0f BL 3500 (rear) and it works like a charm. If both sources are playing, the source connected to input 1 will be prioritized over the source connected to input 2 (in my case the BC 9500).

There is also a Powerlink Aux switch at Oneremote available. I have no experience with it, but from what I can read at the website, you should be able to connect the BM 5500 directly via AUX to the switch as well as the BV via PL, and then go to the BL 9.

I have no experience with the BV Horizon as well. Is it possible to connect it via NetLink to other B&O sources? If it is, you could connect the BV to your WiFi network and connect the BM 5500 via BLC 1611 and BLC NL/ML to the same network and then join the BM and the BV. Which, of course, would be no direct connection of the two sources to the BL 9.

Enjoy your nice BeoSystem!

Kind regards,

Rolf

I also replaced the keypad on one of my BL1000s along with the missing rubber feets (those also fit the MCPs!) and that really makes a big difference!

The feet also fit the A4 CD rack wave, well done, dksoundparts 👍!

Hello Mark,

a german seller has both panels as spare parts available, look here. I do not know if he will ship to your place. If you are interested, I will gladly assist, if you like.

Hi,

thank you, happy new year to you as well!

And no, not at all. Just looking for a possible explanation to understand the devices behaviour and the process.

Finally: Uploaded 386 photos

Enjoy. 🙂

For other members trying to upload their photos: I was only able to upload 12 pictures max. per upload. With that number the uploader worked flawlessly.

Thank you Mark for help and support. 🙂

Thomas, thank you for hinting at the maximum upload capacity. I started with 12 pictures and then went slowly up. In the end, I was able to upload a total of 20 pictures per each upload. I would guess that the size of the pictures might play a role? Your camera most likely takes a lot more pixel volume per picture than my iPhone 14?

Hi all,

I wish the party of our Struer visit a good, healthy and successful new year! And of course all beoworld members. It took me some time, but eventually I could focus on beoworld again and upload the pictures taken during our visit to B&O, the Bremdal History Collection, the Bremdal shop, the B&O Museum and Struer in general. I hope that some may add additional perspectives and motifs to the collections of Thomas and Mark (thanks for uploading!). In any case documents of an unforgettable experience!

I really enjoyed the kind and open company and the conversations we had (of course tending to have a focus on Video and Audio equipment 😇). I found our group to be representing what in my opinon is most likely “the” asset of beoworld since I entered the forum many years ago: B&O fans and experts from all over the world with a vast experience and expertise willing to share it and never being shy of discussing one topic at hand enthusiastically.

So, I like to thank you all for making this trip to B&O and Struer the great event that it has been for me! There are lots of memorable moments I will keep in mind, the endeavour of hacking the Theatre in the Hotel Lobby or the nights at the Penguin amongst them …. 😅.

A huge thank you, Mark, for making all of this possible! Book me in advance for the next trip 😁, please.

Kind regards,

Rolf

Congrats to your wonderful purchase! I recommend a BG 9500, then the single BeoCenter will become a BeoSystem 9500 😄! Another choice may be the BG 3000, fitting in style and color. I tried the 3300 and RX2, both working, but without remote control (which does not really matter to me), and design wise not a good fit.

Not sure if you found the level meter function by looking through the manual or trying the different functions? I did not know about it (thank you for this one 👍). Checking the manual, it explains that the recording function standardwise will be operated via „Auto Record Level“. This automatic function might be the explanation for not being displayed permanently? It can be switched to manual adjustment, my German manual describes it on pages 24 and 25.

Hoping to find a „secret button combo“, I checked the product booklet of the 9500, unfortunately it did not give additional insight.

Enjoy your great machine!

Kind regards,

Rolf

I’m curious if the displays can work while connected to a BV because there isn’t a switch on the rear to select ‘audio’ or ‘video’.

The switch on the rear side selects PL or Line-in. Behind the display on the right side is a switch to select „Audio, Video or Off“.

If anyone can confirm if displays do or do not work with a BV7 that would be a start. Any other advice to help solve the problem will be gratefully received 🙂

I have no BV 7, but I guess the MK V is based on the BeoSystem 3? I have a BeoSystem 9500 and a BeoSystem 3, using Beolab 5000 front and Beolab 3000 as rears together. Both systems are connected to the speakers through Oneremote Powerlink switches, one switch per pair. Each pair is daisy chained. Beolab 10 and Beolab 11 are connected to the BeoSystem 3 exclusively.

The displays are working flawlessly with both of the systems. But: The switches have to be set to „Audio“ or „Video“, depending which system is providing the source.

Would be happy if this helps.

Kind regards,

Rolf
