I am moving to EU soon and hoping to bring along my US Beolab 17, 18, 19 WISA speakers. Any potential challenges?

 

Unfortunately, I have to sell a bunch of my B&O gear and it would be great if I could bring these along instead of purchasing new speakers.

I am hoping some of the geniuses on this forum have an answer. 😄

No, you’re fine. They all have universal power supplies in them. The inly thing you’ll need to change is the power cords, that’s it really.

Thanks for the quick reply.

That's great to hear. I had heard the WiSA transmitter protocol may be different for EU compared to US versions— especially when connecting to wireless transmitters in B&O products slated for EU use.

As far as I remember the only differences are that with in the 5.8ghz frequency the US allows some higher channels than they do in the EU. Eitherway it’ll work the same, just on a different channel that is not noticable to you as an end user as it sets itself automatically.
