I have tried to download the manuals from B&O website but get errors. No manuals on here either.

The Beolabs/amplifier will be in a link room and although I assume they are connected via powerlink I can't see how they are controlled.  I see no IR connection, so do they require a Beolink Active (or Wireless 1 which I already use around the house).

Thanks

Hi Stoobie,

No problem, you just need a Powerlink to RJ45 cable from the Beosound 9000 (if all products are in the same room) or from a Beolink Active (if the speakers are in an ML link room) to the Amplifier 1:-

The amplifier will then activate the motors in the Beolab 15s via the control cables.  If you need any of the cables from the amplifier to the speakers, please feel free to get in touch.

Kind regards, Steve

Hi Steve, 

Thanks for the response.  That now makes sense and I'll definitely come to you for any cables as you've supplied me twice in the past and I've been very happy with the service you offer.

Thanks Stoobie!

By the way, I was looking at the car in your avatar, it looks familiar but I can't quite place it.... Renault Avantime? Geeked

Kind regards, Steve.

Yes, Renault Avantime Big Smile We were/are the "first" owners after it was pre-registered by Renault. It is a fabulous car, ours is the V6 automatic and is a dream to drive. Especially in the summer with the windows and massive sun roof open.

Hi Stoobie,

I thought so!  I think the last time I saw one was around 2004, which must have been around the launch date.  They are quite distinctive, I do like the styling and that sunroof is unique.  I don't think many sold in the UK, so maybe yours is about the last one left?

Kind regards, Steve.

Ours is a 2002 car. There were 8557 made (mostly left hand drive). Only about 450 made it to UK in right hand drive and I think there are just over 300 still registered here. Prices plummeted and they sell for about £3k but are now slowly going up in price. You don't see many but they are still out there.

This shows the original concept and how the production models stayed faithful to the concept. http://www.renaultavantime.com/index.php?page=concept
