Hi guys, I am curious, is it possible to set a Beolab 7-2 as a centre speaker on the beosound core? My setup is: Beosound core, 2x Beolab 8000 and a Beolab 2 connected to it. Looking forward to receiving your wisdom.

Hello Anders, the Core does not support any surround sound options. Your 7-2 would play the same stereo sound as the 8000s when connected in parallel to the PowerLink of the Core. Check also this thread perhaps:
