Hi guys, 

I have a beolab penta mk1 but i can't put the display working with the beomaster 5000.

The penta have a 4 pin speakerlink and the beomaster only have a 3 pin speakerlink.

Any ideas how to put the display working?

Sorry, but since the BM5000 does not have an output compatible with the Penta display, you can't get it working. You would need a BM5500 or newer with Speakerlink outputs.

Thank you for the help!

I was asking because my dad remembers seeing the displays working in my grandfathers house, and because i am new to the B&O world, i started investigating a way to make the display work. 

And now i have another (maybe stupid Big Smile) question ... Can a Master Control Link make the display work?

Thank you for the help!

Hi, no, the Master Control Link will allow you to extend your audio into other rooms, but will not light the displays.
