Do you want to connect your WiiM streamer to Beolab speakers?
Then you need the right cable and connection.
Because Bang & Olufsen speakers work differently than standard speakers, a correct connection is essential.
On this page, we explain how to easily connect your
WiiM Mini, Pro, or Ultra to Beolab speakers — without interference and with optimal sound.
Which WiiM are you using?
WiiM Mini
This connects to the AUX input of the Beomaster/Center/Sound unit of the B&O Audio system using a DIN to mini-jack cable (MP3 cable).
If you want to use the Mini standalone (e.g., to Labs: 8000, 6000, 4000, 1, and LabPenta), use a mini-jack to RCA cable.
If the Lab is connected via RCA or mini-jack/RCA connector, the sliders on the speakers are set to LINE.
WiiM Pro or the WiiM Pro+, (look pictures lower)
can be connected in three ways:
1-Directly with RCA/phono/tulip cable,
Relatively inexpensive connection. Disadvantage: the speaker can switch off during a 'silent' moment.
2-With adapter/trigger cable AV-TRSDIN8 to existing Powerlink cables (often an extra Y-cable is required)
3-Can be connected directly with Line cable (tulip/Powerlink DIN7) (types such as Beolab 3, 9, 4002, 6002, 8002)
If you want to connecct a B&O/master/ouverture to this WiiM Pro+/Ultra connect these cable to the powerlink port and the Line-in port.
A speaker sense is required for a sound9000 or center 2.
Turn the volume of the B&O louder than standard, (no speaker is connected) before the Pro+/Ultra receives the sound.
WiiM Ultra can do the same as the WiiM Pro+
Directly with RCA/phono/tulip cable
With adapter/trigger AV-TRSDIN8 to existing Powerlink cables (often an extra Y-cable is required)
Or directly with RCA/tulip/phono cable to Powerlink DIN7 for Beolab 3, 9, 4002, 6002, 8002
When connecting with Powerlink adapter/cable AV-TRSDIN8, the on/off function of the Beolab works the same as with B&O components.
The Beolab will be switched on or off via the internal 12V trigger signal.
A PowerLink Y-cable is often required for this connection to connect two PowerLink cables.
Important: Not all Beolab speakers work with a trigger signal (Beolab3000/4000/5/50 and 90 do not).
Therefore, always use the correct cable or adapter
Connecting a WiiM Ultra or Pro+ to a Beomaster/Sound/Ouverture/Center via the DIN connector.
The WiiM can be connected to the AUX input found on most B&O Hi-Fi units via a DIN7 to 2 x RCA connector. You can find this cable here.
(Exception: Beocenter 2 and Beosound 4; DIN as AUX but RCA connector, these can be connected to AUX-IN using an RCA cable)

1. Take the 2,5 mm adapter out of the pro+ packaging.
2. Insert this into the trigger connector.
3. Connect the AV-TRSDIN8 cable and powerlink cable.
If you have a Y-cable, connect that first, then both powerlink cables to the speaker.
4. Finally, connect the internet and power cable, download the app and follow the app's menu to configure it.
after the install, change the volume to low before you give the command to stream.
