Hi George and welcome to the Beoworld Forum Classic question - yes, you are in the right forum. Since link/Masterlink is a unique B&O feature, there is no obvious solution. Almost no new tv nowadays has some kind of analog L/R out for sound that could be used for connecting to the BS9000. And the use of an eARC capable audio extractor often brings delay in sound. I guess you are not interested i a somewhat newer B&O tv, which could be linked - either on it’s own or using a B&O Converter. If you want a modern tv like the LG C or G series, the only option you will have is the BS Theatre and the converter. This is a rather expensive solution, I know - but in addition to the link possibility you would have the best sound, that B&O has ever made for a tv. If you have had external speakers connected to the BV7, you could still use these with a new tv, but that would require the use of some kind of A/V processor….and it would still not give you the link option, that you are used to. Sorry - but you are not the only one facing this problem. Maybe someone else has a solution, these often are rather DIY. So stay tuned to the forum. MM

You mention that you also have link rooms. If you just wan't the new TV to run standalone the BS9000 can still run the link rooms. You might have to change the option setting on the BS9000 to be able to operate it with a remote in the room where it is located as this might have been going on through the TV's IR sensor in the current setup.

Thanks Madskp That I overlooked! The BS9000 has to be in A-Option 1 to be controlled remotely, when there is no BV anymore. MM

This may be the answer I'm looking for.  I'm running everything through BV-7 now including BS9000 connected by ML.  When the BV is no longer functional, I know I have options to use my stand and B&O speakers with a modern TV, it was the 9000 that I couldn't figure out.  How do I change to A-Option 1 to run the 9000 in linked rooms?  What happens to ML connection at the BV7?  I control with a Beo4 remote.  Thanks

I asked a similar question a while back and the most helpful suggestion in my case (due to having BS9000 in a separate room to the TV) was to use a Beosystem 3. This would allow you to send the tv sound to your B&O speakers and integrate into the ML network.
