PhilLondon:
No the Ouverture is Masterlink, the MX is Datalink. You need a converter.

So does the Ouverture not have Datalink then?

You should also be able to join the Ouverture and the MX7000 together with an Aux link cable?

Thanks for the help gents - i'll give it a whirl next week - in fact, have both 1611 and 1614 but the '11 was earmarked for another link system in another bit of the house to far to link in to this which is in the centre of an open plan living space with tiled floors and no walls to run links etc - will post pics when finished

If you already have the 1614, try it. From what I know the extra features of the most recent 1611 are for the 2500, so the 1614 might work in your case.

If you do not have a converter and are going to get one, get the 1611 as it is the most recent one and works in all the configurations.

So, I do need a 1611 for the 7000 - ouverture link - i gather the 1614 will not work - is that correct? or is it suck and see - I'm back en France end of next week where the kit is so can give it all a whizz then

You would need the converter between a MX7000 (Datalink) and an Ouverture (Masterlink).

1611 is recommended in all cases over 1614.

But you do need the converter for the MX7000 Phil!

Why did I think this thread was in French? I don't know!

Ouverture is not the same as Beocenter 2500, the ouverture as Masterlink, the 2500 has datalink, so you need a converter only for the 2500.

The 1611 has some extra features for the 2500, so that is the one you must use.

I have it in my system and it works fine.

Hi all

Whats the difference between a 1611 and a 1614 convereter? Just found a piece in the main site however I have an MX7000 and an overture to link up in one room , will the 1614 do the job? - If not what can the 1614 be used for?

Converters are often available on eBay and sometimes come with the cables as well. There is not much on eBay at the moment, best to wait and keep your eyes peeled.
