I have a beosound century that has done me proud for a number of years now. However I recently moved to a bigger place and need to increase the number of speakers or get a line out so I can put it through another amplifier (don't think it has a headphone socket).

anybody got any ideas? It would be a shame to have to replace it as it is a great machine....

AUX is input only but there is a mini headphone socket:

Headphones

Headphone socket

The headphone socket is placed on the back of

BeoSound Century, as illustrated to the left.

Once you connect your headphones to BeoSound

Century, the sound from the built-in BeoSound

Century speakers is muted. The sound from the

speakers is then demuted when you disconnect

your headphones.

Or upgrade to a Beosound ouverture/3000/3200. More easy to ditribute the sound via ML or powerlink (volume controlled line out)

The output for the headphones isn't the best solution and you will up with a set up which probably does not satisfy you.

Was rather hoping to keep the current system

isnt there some way of taking the back off and connecting up some additional speaker cables?

Sounds like you need to use the Century in a sensible place and upgrade to another system for your bigger room as Beobuddy says.  I wouldn't mess with the Century.

It must be a big room as my Century can play plenty loud enough in my large kitchen!  If you need another amp, then you may as well go the whole hog and buy something like a 3000/3200.
