  Will the display at my Beolab Penta(in link room) work, if I connect them to mainroom, with Beolink Active?

Hi Henrik,

Yes, if you have a pre-2013 system that supports Datalink (eg. Beosound 9000, Ouverture, etc) and you use fully wired Powerlink mk.2 cables then you will get the data to light up the speaker displays through the Beolink Active:-

Kind regards, Steve.

Hi Steve

  Thank you for your answer, I want to use my Beosound 3200(+ Beolab 2500) in kitchen as master.

Currently I’m testing the Beolab Penta in living room with a Beosound 2300, with displays working.

But I would like to make the living room into a link room, to be able to play the same source in both rooms. I just don’t want to loose the display.
