To give all of us collectors an excuse why we need to have two audiomasters in one room......because it can be done!
After having used this feature of my setup for a while (passive speakers):
Set your BM6500 to A.OPT0. Now it won`t respond to any ir commands.Connect an MCL2A Kit (extra speaker kit) to SPEAKER2 sockets and connect your speakers (passive?) to your MCL box.Set the extra speaker kit to L.OPT4.Now you can contol your BM6500 in LINK mode, pressing for example LINK - RADIO.
We changed from passive Beovox Cona + CX 100 combo to Beolab 4 in the home office (active speakers).
So after buying a MCL2AV to drive the speakers all is working fine:
Set the BM6500 to A.OPT0. Now it won`t respond to any ir commands.Connected an MCL2AV Kit (xtra TV kit) to SPEAKER2 sockets and connected the speakers to the MCL2AV box.Set the extra speaker kit to L.OPT4 (if I remember correctly...).Now we can contol our BM6500 in LINK mode, pressing for example LINK - RADIO. Or LINK - A.TAPE to get the sound of the PC through the Beolabs.Ralf
