Hi members,
Once again I seek your expertise to help a novice out
I have a Beogram 4004 that I would love to be able to stream to my kitchen (Beosound Level) and living room (Beosound Stage). I’ve been looking around this site for other similar threads but haven’t been able to find a solution to this challenge. Does anyone know if that is possible please? I was thinking something the likes of a Beosound Core, Sonos Port or Bluesound Node might do the trick but just not sure whether the Sonos/Bluesound will stream over WiFi or Bluetooth to 3rd party products.
To make matters more complicated, I have an old pair of Beolab 2500 that I was thinking of hooking up to the Beogram for stationary listening in our little study where the Beogram lives. I know it’s possible to connect the speakers to the Sonos/Bluesound with the right cables from Sounds Heavenly.
Setup would look something like this:
Beogram to Pre-amp to Sonos/Core/Bluesound connected to Beolab 2500 (wired) and allowing Bluetooth or Wifi streaming to Level / Stage.
Really hoping there’s a solution to this problem that doesn’t require too much new equipment.
Many thanks,
Kasper

Thank you Leos. So basically using multi room to stream it to the other speakers via the M3? Sounds like a good idea.
Would that also allow me to incorporate the BeoLab 2500s into the setup?
Cheers!

connect BL2500 to a Beosound Core; connect the BG4004 with pre-amp to the Core;
then you can listen to the BG4004 on the Core and JOIN the Level and the Stage.

Is it correct to say, that by connecting the Beogram to the Core - rather than the BLC - you get all Multiroom features, minus the ability to integrate it with the Halo via BLI? Or the BLI would be still able to create/run Beogram macros and buttons on Halo even when it is connected to the Core?

Thank you very much Carolpa. I’ll try the Core :)
Sorry, one more question. In the setup with the Core. How do I control volume on the Beolab 2500s? :)
Apologies for all the questions. A real novice over here!

That’s great that I can just use the app. Thanks a lot for your help!
