      Done – BeoSound 3200 unplugged from power. Might get active again if the BeoVision 5 is not working anymore.

        Just drilled holes into wallmount and added some washers.

          The FM radio will be shut down soon, so I would like to enjoy radio in the link rooms.
          That was actually the reason to buy the BS4 DAB+, from design point of view I would have preferred a BeoSound 9000 🙂

            You are right.. I honestly do not need a BeoVision 10.
            ..but I am not really motivated to carry a 123kg Beovision 9 many floors up to replace the Beovision 5 “just” for HDMI 😉 So if the BeoVision 5 will stop working, I will rewire the loudspeakers to the BeoLab 3200 and convert the office to “music link room” only.

            The “Home Cinema” label was maybe valid 20 years ago when the system has been installed, but I just bought the house recently and now it’s my office. The BeoLab 4 speakers are quite good for computer and video conference.

            FYI: Beovision V.Opt 5 did not help (BS3200 A.Opt 5), I assume since there are no speakers connected to BeoLab 3200 this configuration is never foreseen from B&O?

            V.Opt 2 and V.Opt 6 bring the result that I can get DAB+ in the office, but BS3200 still does it’s own thing in parallel on the display (of course no audio output because no speakers are connected to it)

              Very cool! I am very tempted to buy the Neo 7 just to have the TV rotate function…

              IMG_7602

              Some years ago I have manually mounted a wall bracket to my Samsung UE55ES6880 to the old TV stand of Beovision 7.. For sure it’s not balanced properly, I had to manually fix the tilt function 😉IMG_4231

              Since the TV is already very old, I will most likely wait for an OLED 4K and then make the switch to Neo 7..

                Wow this forum is awesome, you already helped me so much!
                I did draw the plan by myself based on what I found in the house in the last 2 years 😉
                ..and yes, BeoSound 3000 in the bedroom is not yet connected to Masterlink (connector is on the other side of the room, need to do wiring first)

                Now I think I finally understood the link concept:

                1. If I press CD on BL3200 in link room (office), it *should* play CD locally in this room
                2. If I press LINK->CD on BL3200 in link room (office), it *should* play CD from BL4 (living room)

                The Beovision 6 in the sports and wellness room have honestly no real function, right now they are just able to play Radio. The Beovision 5 in the office has as well DVD, and through a HDMI->SCART adapter even an AppleTV attached.

                One confession I have to make: The TV in the living space is no longer B&O, I replaced the BeoVision 7 (no HDMI) with a Samsung TV and used cables from Steve.

                Again thanks to the Forum, I found the Neo 7 (I am really tempted to order it so the TV stand can work again): https://neomesteren.dk/en/produkter/bm-7-adapter

                I will try to readout the option settings from the BeoVision TV’s and will report back.

                  I have used larch wood, I am very much impressed how easy it was to give them a modern look! Thanks again so much for sharing the 3D files and the awesome user manual!

                    Since my subwoofer amplifier is broken and needs to be replaced, how did you manage to do this? I was thinking to take the subwoofer signal from Powerlink cables, and then loop back the modified sound signal through Powerlink to the loudspeakers? (BeoLab 4000)

                    “I do have a 10″ sub below each 8000 and crossover the 8000’s and 6000’s at 100hz.”

                      You might have a problem to 3D print a nice and smooth surface, for sure you need to grind and paint it afterwards. I also used the black paper as a quick fix 🙂

                      I personally wouldn’t go for a flush top panel, since the design really adds some nice details if the wood covers are 2mm up, but still lower than the chrome head.
