Hi. I popped in to my local B&O store the other day and was told by the staff that their Core system can link in to pick up source material being played through my Beosystem 4500 (28 years young and going strong, CD, tape and turntable) and transmit over wifi to M3 &/or M5 speakers. I am very interested in doing this but wonder if I can really connect a near-30 year old system to this great tech. Any advice gratefully received - my system configuration is:
Beosystem 4500 Receiver
CD Player, Tape cassette player, Turntable, 2xRL6000, 2xCX100
Thanks in anticipation!

Sure you can! Depending on your speaker setup you can connect your BeoLabs to the Core, and the BeoMaster to the Line In of the Core. Then you even can control both new sources (Deezer, TuneIn) and old sources with one BeoRemote One BT
As an alternative you can pick up two converters (NL/ML + ML/MCL). Then you can map all sources from the BM to the Core and access them independently from other NL-speakers. So you could toggle an M3 in the kitchen to start the record or tape player. More wiring and more expense, but very cool :)
Thank you 1990 - hope to get the chaps round then for a demo in the next week or two!
