The good news for MisterBG is that the Beosound Moment has inbuilt WISA that will transmit to WISA wireless speakers – some of the newer Beolabs have WISA receivers built-in. In order to provide the WISA facility for older speakers, B&O introduced the Beolab Receiver 1, which acts as a WISA receiver and provides a Powerlink output to Beolab speakers. One Beolab Receiver 1 is required for each Beolab (Left and Right). However (as Beobuddy has just pointed out) the BL5 is incompatible with Beolab Receiver 1. This is explained in this thread, in which Steve also suggests a workaround making use of the BL5s’ Line inputs: https://archivedforum2.beoworld.co.uk/forums/p/25222/201651.aspx#201651 So MisterBG could either buy a couple of Beolab Receiver 1s and use Steve’s workaround, or stick with the wired solution.

@Guy
thank you for the workaround, leaving me stuck with my 6 BLW ! Anyone interested ;-D

@Guy,

Thanks. My BL5 are indeed in the same room as my Moment.

I have plenty of other BL (1, 3, 4000 + A9) eager to go wireless if possible but my priority goes to the BL5 should i had to make a choice !

@Guy @MM

thank you for your answers

looking at the 3rd paragraph from the end here https://www.beoworld.co.uk/prod_details.asp?pid=1028, i thought that BL5 were compatible, no ?

Hi Guy,

yes, I have the little switch.

the transmitter is on T, the receiver is on R (wouln’t pair otherwise i guess ?)

thank you for the help !
