Here you have:
Thanks Matador,
Here is a link to a “Dual source” RCA cable that will let you use a “Video source” and an “Audio source” via the Aux input of the Beolink converter (I can supply 3.5mm minijack adapters with the cable on request):-
Kind regards, Steve.
Hi Matador,
Ha ha, yes you are right – its a Sony! No wonder I couldn’t get the colours to match up in the video footage they sent to me!
I will stick to my Canon cameras, they haven’t let me down yet 😉
Kind regards, Steve.
Hi Matador,
Well spotted! That was actually a spare camera belonging to one of the Noto team, they were taking extra photos and video footage through the day while I was interviewing them. You are quite correct, I would never start an interview with that level of battery life remaining! I always shoot on Canon by the way, that looks like a Nikon…
Have a great new year!
Kind regards, Steve.
Happy Christmas Beofans!
as Stereomensch said, I use Penta 3s in my workshop, along with Beolab 3000 as rear speakers. In my bedroom I have a pair of Emerges, which are linked to the Beosystem 3500 in my living room.
The living room speakers are currently non-B&O, thy are heavily modified Dali Oberon 5 linked to the 3500 system, while I decide which Beolab or Beovox speakers should replace them…
Kind regards Steve
Thanks Yann,
That is a lovely picture! Yes, BeoSanta has been good to me this year!
Have a great Christmas
Wow, what an amazing list of prizes, I am really excited to be one of the winners! Yes, a YouTube review will be coming soon…
A big thank you to Botty for running the draw and congratulations to all the other winners! Happy Christmas to my fellow BeoWorlders as well!
Kind regards Steve
Hi,
Yes, I have these available with a choice of Twin RCA and 3.5mm minijack inputs:-
Twin RCA Trigger: https://soundsheavenly.com/line-in-connection/101-459-singletwin-rca-to-beolab-2-7-10-28-and-2500-powered-trigger-kit.html#/2-length-1m
Minijack Trigger: https://soundsheavenly.com/line-in-connection/102-438-minijack-to-beolab-2-7-10-28-and-2500-powered-trigger-kit.html#/2-length-1m
These can be used to activate the majority of Beolab speakers via their Powerlink sockets (full list of compatible speakers can be found on the two links above. Any questions, please ask!
Kind regards, Steve.
Thanks,
That is an interesting point, I hadn’t spotted that before.
We will be focusing on Beolab 90 next week, with a deep dive into the design of this amazing speaker…
Kind regards Steve.
Hi, I’m sorry but I don’t think this will work as each Receiver 1 outputs mono sound to both audio channels from what I remember.
The best option is to cable the speakers to the Theatre if you can as there are currently issues when using Receiver 1 with the Theatre.
Kind regards Steve.
Hi Beoworlders,
It is time to find out what the future holds for Bang & Olufsen speaker design! In my new video, Noto Design explain how a 1970’s design icon has guided their work on modern B&O products…
Kind regards, Steve.
Thanks!
Part 2 of the story to follow next week…
Kind regards Steve
Hi Matador,
Yes, today is officially B&O’s 97th birthday!
Kind regards, Steve.
Hi Jon,
welcome back to BeoWorld!
Theatre I superb, if you have the chance to hear it then I think you will love it!
please plug the Beogram in using a cable (via the pre amp), don’t try to connect it wirelessly-this is complex, expensive and will give poor results.
Theatre also wins over the 18s here (as well as in sound quality), as you can plug in the pre amp directly, without needing a Beomaster/Beosound to control the volume.
please feel free to use my sponsor link below if you need any help with cables!
kind regards Steve
Hi Mark,
I think the issue with the rear speakers may be due to them being connected wirelessly. If you want to try a wired connection to the 17s to see if that improves things, please let me know and I can loan you some cables on a sale-or-return basis to try out without obligation.
I don’t think the Apple USB adapter will work but I do have the correct adapters available if you need one: https://soundsheavenly.com/tv-misc/191-usb-c-audio-input-adapter-for-beosound-theatre-ref-6271374.html
Kind regards, Steve.
Hi Ingvar,
Yes, this will all work, you can use Powerlink cables and splitters to link as many Beolab speakers as you wish to the Essence – please bear in mind that will only get stereo sound through all speakers.
Beolab 14 subwoofer gives better bass than Beolab 11, so you won’t need the Beolab 11 once the Beolab 14 is connected. Please click on my sponsor link at the foot of the page if you need any help with cables to get everything connected!
Kind regards, Steve.
Hello Beitie,
Welcome back! I would suggest contacting Keith (keith@beoworld.co.uk or via PM on the site) as that should be the easiest way to confirm any unclaimed Beoworld prizes.
Kind regards, Steve.
Hi pepps,
That is great to hear! I grew up with a 1970s Beocenter 3300 which I spent months repairing, I was amazed by the power of that system. Looking back, there are two systems that I wish I had been able to buy when they were released: one was the Century, which I later owned (lovely lighting as with the BS2500!) and more recently the Beosound 1. That was why I thought it could be interesting to feature in the video as it is often forgotten but it is a superb first system for anyone wanting to try out B&O on a budget.
Kind regards, Steve.
Good choice!
There are some great speakers out there. for this video, I tried to look for one that would work for everyone, old or young, for existing CD collections or for online streaming, plus one that is underrated and forgotten about…
Kind regards, Steve.
Hi,
Don’t worry, John has been very busy from what I gather speaking to him recently. I know his Theatres were delayed in transit but they have now arrived, I am sure he won’t mind me sharing this picture that he sent to me recently:-
Producing YouTube videos is very, very time consuming, but I am sure that John will have a superlative Beosound Theatre video coming when he gets the chance!
Kind regards, Steve.
