[quote user="Rockwolfy"] So what are we poor 'bronze' guys missing out here? Does it say something about the converter for MasterLink to Netlink? [/quote] The link points to the user and service guides for the Beosound 5 Encore. I don't know if it speaks to MasterLink to Netlink conversion because I haven't read - no time right

[quote user="beojeff"] ... then it sends that music to the BeoSound 5 to be played via the A.Aux.... [/quote] which means the BS5 must be the an audio master? thanks very much for your help so far... Stan

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but this is all about playing music that is stored on your phone through your BS5, not using your phone to select and play songs already stored on the BS5... correct? Stan

I don't think so. The Wireless unit works with 2 channel audio that is sent on the MasterLink network. That is, MasterLink is the only method of getting audio into a wireless transmitter. I don't believe that it is possible for the TV to send only the rear channel audio to MasterLink. If there is way to do this, then it would probably work as

I wake up to my BL4s via a beolink wireless every day. It works fine. I did have to upgrade the software after I bought the wirelesses. Question: Do you have multiple ML devices connected to your wireless (when you say you have it working as a "bridge")? I'd like to connect a passive to my wireless (and once you use it as a bridge, you

Yes, the Active has a IR receiver - although if you buy 2nd hand, many times the IR receiver is not included... and it is not very useful without. You will probably need a splitter for the PL. You can run BL4000s, 6000s and 1s in series, but this would require changing the cabling as I assume both speakers are currently connected to the TV (and not

If you don't want to move the cables, you should look at buying a BeoLink Active. This box will take MasterLink audio and send it to PowerLink speakers. It only has one PowerLink output so you may need a splitter depending on the speaker configuration. Also, you can run a special cable (I think SoundsHeavenly carries them - see ads on this site

Glad I could help. I also had the Beo6 "upgrade", and this is how I fixed it - with a little help from others on the forum. Stan

For me, at least, their most important difference is that I actually fit comfortably within. I'm 6'4'', but have relatively short legs (hence, long torso), and I do not fit in any Lexus (and many other Japanese makes), or the smaller German imports (A4, BM3-series - didn't bother with the MB, even the 5 series and A6 are tight).

You can try to go into the expanded menu (set focus on SETTINGS, then press >>,<<,>>,<<,GO) and run "start restore" under the maintenance menu. This will take you back to a prior version of the software. Then, when this process completes, you can try running it and see if it seems to be working correctly. If so (and
