Detailed information
-
This is an example of connecting the Beolab 18 to a standard TV. An HDMI cable is used. The TV must have an HDMI (ARC) port. In the diagram, the cable is split into a Y-shape from the Connect Core, but in the case of the Beolab 18, daisy-chaining (in series) is also possible. Since the Connect Core has only one Power Link output, if you want to use a Y-shape, you will need to purchase a splitter separately. *Note: The Connect Core is not required when connecting to the BANG & OLUFSEN Beovision.
-
This is an example of connecting an audio player regardless of the manufacturer. Connect Core is connected via cable to the LINE-IN (3.5mm) and the Beolab speakers use a Power Link Cable. In the diagram, it is connected in a daisy chain (series) to the Beolab 18, but depending on the Beolab series, some can only be connected with a Y-split. In that case, please purchase a "PL Splitter" to Y-split the cable port and connect it.
