I re-assembled the Beovox 4500s...below is a picture of the right speaker. Beautiful! Communication with the Beosound 9000 through Power Link works also very well. I used "Din 8 (Large Din) 8 pin Male-Male" cables for the Power Link connection. The so-called original (overpriced) Power Link cables that are available on ebay are nothing else. This is the beauty of this set-up. The speakers are connected to the receiver by a data bus and 2V audio signals only, i.e. all that is needed is a shielded 8-pin small signal cable. The amplifiers run on their own power - each speaker has its own power supply and an integrated amplifier. I connected my ipad on the 9000's auxiliary input (selectable through "ATape" on the Beo 4 remote) for testing. Need to get a 75 Ohm FM antenna to get the tuner working. And burn some CDs that I can use the CD changer...how very vintage!...;-)

Is this a Beovox 4500 or Beolab 4500?
ReplyDeleteIt is told that Speakers with power module are the Beolabs and without power amp is Beovox.
You are right. This is Beolab 4500.
DeleteA feast to the eyes and ears, IMHO!
