From audio to video – or vice versa

You can operate the BeoSound 9000 in
conjunction with a Bang & Olufsen
video system*, and hear any source you
like in the loudspeakers of either
system.

You can, for example, hear a music
video through the BeoSound 9000
speakers, or listen-in while the TV news
is playing; or you can use the system
the other way around, and listen to the
radio or a CD on the TV speakers.

To operate these audio/video
functions, you must use the AV button
on the Beo4 remote control.

Audio/Video recording

The sound from the BeoSound 9000 you hear in
the TV speakers can be recorded on the video
tape recorder – please refer to the User’s guide
for your video system to see how.

A special recording lock function ensures that you
cannot switch to another program or source while
such a recording is in progress.

*Note: Not all types of Bang & Olufsen video
systems support audio/video integration with the
BeoSound 9000. Please contact your Bang &
Olufsen dealer for further information.

All that is required for the audio/video integration
to work is that your Bang & Olufsen video system
and the BeoSound 9000 are interconnected by a
special link cable.

If the BeoSound 9000 is connected with a
BeoVision Avant, the functions related to Timer
programming are carried out via the TV.

In a fully integrated system with a BeoVision
Avant, TREBLE, BASS, BALANCE and LOUDNESS
are 

TV OPERATED

.

If on the other hand BeoSound 9000 is connected
with for example AV 9000 only the setting of the
clock must be carried out via the TV menu.

The special link cable is available at your Bang &
Olufsen dealer, who will also assist you with
further information about audio/video
integration.

Note: The operations described on this page do
not apply to a fully integrated AV system as
described on page 45.
