Hello together,
I'd like to drive my BL20 with two different sources - let me explain my current setup first.
I do own a LG OLED65G19 TV with a Axiim Link WISA transmitter connected via USB. This setup serves my 2 BL20 plus a BL7.4 Center speaker (connected to a BO Receiver 1) via WISA. The system runs without any complaints.
Now to my question:
I was able to get a BS Moment at a fair price. Now I'd like connect the BL20 to the Moment additionally to the LG TV. First attempt was to connect the BL20 to the Moment via RJ45 while they are still connected to the TV via WISA. I realized its a bad idea, because I would have to select the appropriate input with the switch at the back of both BL20 each time - bad WAF.
Does someone have a hint for me how to connect the BL20 in the correct way? Correct means the BL20 should react both to the TV and to the moment in an automatic way. Is the any possibility? Do I need additional hardware?
Thank you for help.
Best Regards,
Tobias

Thanks for your reply.
So if I understand right I'd need two splitter and two receiver 1 (one of each for one BL20). Hmm...maybe that could be an option.
Any concrete suggestion for a switchable splitter?
Or any other thoughts?
Doing a 1:1 comparison reveals the moment does sound noticeable better than the LG TV via WISA.
Seems if I have to get a working solution.
Hello, I use of it my moments through a third party TV. You need an RCA cable from the moment to the aux in on the TV, that way you’ll be able to select the moment as a source on the panel and the sound will stream to your speakers from there. works perfectly with my Loewe Bild 5 and lab 9’s, albeit a wired connection.

Ah, interesting concept - never thought about it in this direction
So I do need a rj45 to RCA cable?
Well, stop - the TV does not have any input connection other than HDMI (if I remember correctly).
Mine is rca (from the moment) to the digital audio in on the Loewe from memory. Cable and advice was from Steve at sounds heavenly, top bloke, he’ll be able to sort you out I’m sure.
