    Beolink converter with BC6-26 and BC9300

    Hi,

    I am a complete novice when it comes to connecting B&O equipment so I hope someone will be kind enough to help me out with an answer to this query.

    I've just acquired a Beolink converter 1611 to connect my Beocenter 9300 (MCL) music system to my Beocenter 6-26 TV (ML). I wish to put the sound from the TV through the two speaker sets connected at present to the music system. I have yet to get the necessary cables to make the connections, which is where the question comes in - I want to get the right lengths to avoid paying for several metres of surplus copper!

    I seem to remember a previous post referring to an audio delay when connecting a B&O music system to a B&O LCD TV - something to do with digital processing delays - but I can't locate it now.

    My question is, if I connect the TV to the music system with the speakers connected directly to the music system, will I experience an audio delay? If so, will that be in both directions - I mean audio via the TV speakers and TV sound via the audio system? And will it make any difference if I run the speakers directly from the TV? Or am I worrying unnecessarily?

    Any input from some of the technicians here would be very much appreciated. Thanks

    There shouldn't be any delay assuming its all in the same room.

    It would be a ML cable from the TV to the 1611 and then a five pin cable from the 1611 to the Audio Aux port on the 9300.

    Probably better to run the speakers from the TV if it has a Dolby surround module etc.

    Then just a case of configuring each device to send the sound one way or the other.

    NO! You'll need a 7pin "DataLink" cable from 1611 to Audio Aux/TV on the 9300 - a standard 5 pin DIN can't 
    transmit the data required for system intergration!

    YES! If you your speakers are active ones you should connect them to the PL sockets of your TV or DS
    module and set V-/A-Option to 2/0.
