Hey B&O friends ,I have a beosystem 3 all set with 4 Beolab 1 speakers and a Beolab 2 subwoofer and a beolab 7.6 center speaker . Also I have my beosound 9000 (MK3) connected with a masterlink cable to the beosystem 3.
Now , the sound is perfect for movies with all speakers working correct for surround but when I put on my beosound 9000 and play a CD (for example) it plays surround sound . only vocals to the center and front speakers and not to the rear ones.
Sound rather strange ...as I expected to have stereo sound for my music and surround for movies.
anyone know what to do to get it right?
thanks

Hello kriskarman,
In the ‘sound adjustment’ menu there is the option to choose defaults for audio and video. For 'DEFAULT AUDIO' it should then state ‘SPEAKER2’ for stereo + sub. Maybe have a look there first? Don't forget to 'STORE' the setting.
Let us know what you find,

You might use "Speaker 2" instruction on your Beo4. List until "speaker" appears, then press 2.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.
Are you sure, that the 7.6 is connected to it’s own powerlink socket called Centre 1.

well I tried to put it on "speaker 2" but that only put power to the 2 front speakers.
then I put it on "speaker 4" and than the fronts and back speakers worked with the subwoofer. All fine now ,
Thanks,
Kris
