BarryAndrew: In my complete ignorance I thought that as the red wire didn't go anywhere it was there to confuse the B&O system that it was B&O that was present -- from what you are saying, Peter, this is a one side of the stereo only arrangement. This is rather annoying to say the least. The 8000's have RCA compatibility and fire up

Peter: Possibly being stupid here, but looking at the diagram above, surely not doing anything with the feed from the red wire means that you will only get the left channel going through the sub. Pin 2 is ground and pin 3 left and pin 5 right. Why do think I bought a BL2!!! This diagram is so confusing I personally thought the same thing, but do you

Beobird: sharif: Thanks for all the info....but after much soul searching I decided to buy a Beolab2 this afternoon. So glad I did........System now sounds awesome. Thanks again guys I can respect that, because it's very hard to put a non-B&O item into you B&O collection . Last year I had to choose between the BV6 and a Pioneer Kuro and

I see you can buy this cable from ebay and B&O itself, but what about the cable from the din to RCA? Where do you but this from?

I have contacted loads of people yesterday trying to find a solution to this problem.

I take it the diagram is correct.....I dont want to blow something up!!!! Is there anyone out there who has made such a lead and can confirm the configuration? Also, will the PV1 switch on and off with the system as do the BL6000's or will I need to do this manually. Sorry to ask so many stupid questions. I am new to this and don't want to get

Thanks again.....I see from the diagram, the lead connecting to the sub has no part number. Do I need to have this cable made up?

Thanks for the info.....I have spoken to B&W today...but no one seems to know what lead I would need to connect the Pv1 and where I can buy one from. I have spoken to my B&O dealer who is not at all interested in helping me purchase a Non B&O Product.( to be expected I suppose), but he may be able to help if I can obtain a part number. Does
