What's the best way to drive a Beolab 3500 from a 7-55? Hard wire?(how) or wirelessly? Again how do I do it and what would I need?

Cheers

Hi Chris,

A: you need a plain, simple ML cable. Plug it in at both ends - and you are good to go.

For options - see the userguide(s).

B: you need the Wireless 1. Be sure, that both transmitter and receiver are updated to the same SW-version. Be sure that your 3500 has got the latest SW too (version 2.0 - if I remember right).

Some people are experiencing interferences with their wifi - or with that of their neighbour.

So make sure you know how to change channels iin the settings of your (wifi) router etc.

Be sure that no microwave oven is nearby.

Yes - but only if you have the 'Spotify device' (probably an ATV) connected with an analog audio cable to the BV7.

So connect ATV using anologue (as well as HDMI??) and then masterlink it to the 3500.

How about Mini iPad to playmaker, which is directly connected to the 3500?

You'll need a BeoLink (MCL/ML) Converter to do that.

It would then act as a ML-driver for the 3500.

Or this one: http://almando.com/index.php/b-o.html

 

Must it be a BL3500?

How about a BL7-? - you can get them cheap nowadays.

There is a table stand for them too - much better sound than the 3500.

And it is easy to connect it to the Playmaker.
