Same as Evan here.

I did upgrade the software in my wireless units after purchase so the timer function would work. It seems to me that if the wireless can support a BL3500 via the receive side ML port, it should also be able to support an active or passive (or possibly both) as a BL3500 is essentially an active with built in speakers, no? I recall that some where on

Does anybody know if there are any compability issues between the beolink passive. active and wireless. I'm thinking of expanding my ML network in my upstairs which currently consists of a single beolink wireless. That is, instead of running a pair of speakers from the wireless, I'd connect the wireless to an active and passive via a beolink

A beolink wireless is only required if you cannot connect the speakers to the beosound directly with a masterlink cable. In this case, you would need at least 2 beolink wirelesses (one as a transmitter, the other as a receiver). Also, I believe more recent versions of the BL3500 also support a powerlink connection (I have one with a powerlink connection

Bought a used BeoLink Active from an on-line auction. Wired it in, turn it on and nothing... no response, nothing. Worried that I had a dud, I e-mailed the seller who assured me that "everything worked before we took the system apart". Hmm... Swapped in my other Active and everything was fine so cables and IR were OK... Finally, a search of

So, until the beocentre 2 and beoport are completely obsolete, I think I'll stick with them!! [/quote] David, I

[quote user="Chrisreunion"] Anyway, and back to the topic, it seems that B&O recently released a USB adaptor that you connect to your BeoMaster 5 and allows direct audio playback of any source connected to it (like an AUX port, somehow); it's better than nothing, but the BS5 screen is completely useless in that case, it won't show

[quote user="sjmcguckin"] Stan, I get the sense that you, like me, really appreciate the BS5/BM5 and that you fully understand, use and are very happy with the functionality. I also sense that you are somewhat frustrated by people on this forum who don't understand the functionality but spend a lot of time criticizing and explaining (wrongly

[quote user="Chrisreunion"] If it is so complicated for B&O to work with Apple, why not thinking the other way 'round?? Fit all BeoSounds with a USB input that can work as an Ipod dock, or fit a direct Ipod connector somewhere, and people will just connect their Ipod or Ipad to have gapless & ALAC playback capabilities, exactly
