Multipile Beolabs connect to Beosound 9000

3 replies
Hi B&O experts, My existing set up is beosound 9000 with Beolab 8000 and Beolab 2, I have another pair of Beolab 6002 and thinking to figure out how to connect this Beolab 6002 as a rear speaker.  Is it possible for this set up and sound good for listening music (mainly pop, classic rock and sometimes jazz).  Another option is put all 4 speakers as front, which set up is more workable and sound better?  I have no idea how to connect the extra Beolab 6002 to Beosound 9000 and what cable should be used.  Any expert can help of my issue?  Thanks in advance. Peter.  
It's summer so traffic on the site can be slow, but I will give my 2 cents. Adding speakers will not give you surround sound (different sound coming from front and back).  To get surround sound, you'd need a surround sound processor. Adding speakers to a bs90000 will just give you more of the right and left channel. In some rooms, it could sound better. In others, it could create interference and maybe sound worse. It all depends on your room and where you place your speakers (and where you sit relative to it all). If you have the speakers, there's no reason not to try and see how you like it. I'd recommend connecting them to your BL2 - you'll need a splitter - and make sure you set the Left / Right switch on each speaker appropriately.
Thank you Stan.
