Hello all Beoers

I am going to relocate my BV7-32 and BV-10 and speakers to a new appartment.  I intend to use the old cables but the plugs have to be removed before I could pull the cables out.

I think I can open up the plugs for the speaker and re-solder them but the master link plug seems a bit tricky.  I am wondering if it is possible to buy the new master link plugs and reconnect myself. Does it require a special clam to close the plug and where can I find the pin assignment for the master link and power link?

Thank you all in advance.  Any suggestions on how to move them around is also welcome.

Hi Bouncer,

Unfortunately, special tools are needed to crimp Masterlink plugs to the cables (mine were scarily expensive from B&O when these were still available)

Hence, the simplest and cheapest option is to buy a new length of cable with the plugs already fitted, plus a junction box and you can then easily splice these onto the existing cable to lengthen it.  The B&O junction box includes a fitting tool and full instructions.  You can see details of the cables and junction boxes here:-

Kind regards, Steve.
