Hello friends of Mac and B&O.

I'm about to make the jump from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.

I have all my music stored in lossless formats on my iMac and have so far used LinkPLayer 1 to listen to it via a Cambridge DAC to Beoport and Masterlink through the house. 

1. LinkPlayer 2 will work on Mountain Lion as I can see form earlier post? Will Linkplayer1 work?

2. Anyone tried BM-Link and Mountain Lion? 

3. I'm considering the new Playmaker connected to my BS3000's AUX-port in the livingroom as a new possibility (less cables, no dependency on software from third parties). Any thoughts or experiences?

I fired it up and did some small tests for you and they all worked:

  • iTunes Music
  • Music
  • Radio
  • Video - iTunes Video

This was not an exhaustive test - I never let any tune run to completion but I did start tracks and jump within the playlists and across between playlists.

Good luck.

No I have not - sorry.

Given all the debate in the thread about the BeoLit 12 I would move cautiously with this and make sure it works before parting with your money.

I have suggested to my dealer that I deserve a loan or "try it, like it, keep it" approach but they did not seem happy with that approach - but give it a go.

BeoNut since '75

Thanks, elephant!

 

I will try to upgrade and keep the Linkplayer!

My local dealer has offered me to try out a Playmaker, and I will keep you posted on how that turns out!
