Mine died and they're not repairing it anymore
I was thinking Airport Express but it only has one Ethernet port
what alternatives (non B&O) otherwise that won't cost a small fortune
thanks!
B&O : Beosound Esence mkII is really good (if you're on a budget, you can buy one without the remote and control everything with iPhone/iPad, but the remote is a nice addition)
Non-B&O : Sonos Connect:Play is really nice, plays everything and every streaming service, and is directly compatible with bolas in line-mode with a RCA>Powerlink adapter.

Oh - my gosh!
Quoting isn't easy ;-(

And an alternative to the Sonos Connect is the Samsung LinkMate WAM270 (cheaper with more connecting possibilities)
I'm surprised that Bang & Olufsen doesn't repair them anymore? It's only a 4 years old product. Is that the so called premium quality and service we are paying for???
Thanks!! The Sonos looks fantastic!
I can't find any links on B&O to the Essence MKII. Just the Essence, which is a simple 'remote' :P
In France, they don't stock them anymore and there are no repair options...
to be honest, it's always been extremely sensitive to AirPlay fast forwarding a song. Almost 50% of the time, I'd lose the audio to the BeoLab 12 because of the time it took for the new song to get to the Playmaker and it would turn off the BeoLabs... so damn annoying...
Very good alternative, but only has 1 Ethernet port :P
