      Hello Beoworlders,

      In a few weeks, BL50 will be delivered and I’m thinking about the best way to connect them to a Core that I already own.

      I would like to have a direct digital path between the NAS hosting music files and the speakers, in order to avoid multiple DA/AD conversions and let the 50s do the job.

      Looking at the specs, I noticed that Core has a DPL plug and that 2 DPL plugs are present on the Master BL50.

      Could I use them to connect Core to the 50s (they would be connected to a Theatre through regular Power Link) ?

      On another point, I noticed that Core is limited to 24 bits/95 Khz on it’s optical output. Is it the same for DPL ?

      Thanks for your help,

      Yann.

        The DPL port does nothing – is for ‘future use’.
        When or if this ‘future use’ will be available, is not known
        Please also have a look here:

        The DPL port on the BL50 is for inter loudspeaker communication only.

        As for digital inputs, apart from the USB audio input you have two SPDIF inputs – coax and toslink.

        The optical input supports up to 24/96 – which is what the Core will output via optical.
