I´m planning to place speakers in my veranda. BeoVox 1 would be good said my dealer, but how about CX50´s? It will be dry (under roof) but will they stand the winter? This is Sweden so -40 degrees C do happens. I could of course take them in during the winter, but rather not.

Will the link eye for the Beolink passive stand the temperature?

If we assume for a minute that the CX50's will withstand -40 degrees C, one thing is for sure, the link eye of the Beolink Passive will not, or should I say it will not work at -40 degrees C, but it will recover once the temperature gets to an acceptable level.

For the CX50's I think the biggest problem will be the damp and the damage it may cause. I suggest you bring them in during the winter months

Thanks Keith!

I will (if I can find a decent pair of CX) bring them in during the winter. Thereby the link eye will not be in use either.

Another question about CX50/100: Do they need a bracket to be wall mounted?

There are mounting brackets for CX50's/100's but in reality they are nothing more than glorified hook affairs which hook into holes in the back of the speakers. A decent flat head screw will do the job just as well as long as it is nice and secure.

Chris.

Thanks, Chris!

Now I will start looking for a nice pair of grey 50´s and a Beolink Passive.
