Hello,
I would like to know if i could use beocreate in stereo mode, by installing one beocrate for each CX100 speaker ?
Is it possible with wire or even in wifi?
Then, in this installation, how can i do to plug a subwoofer?
Thanks for your help

Tuomas Hi Alex,
sorry for not replying sooner.
I'll get the bad news out of the way first: wireless stereo pairing is unfortunately not possible. I've been told the Raspberry Pi hardware doesn't allow for precise enough synchronisation of two units. If we somehow figure out a way to do it in the future, we'll be sure to announce that feature.
However, you can create a stereo setup with two amplifiers by plugging an optical cable in between them.
If you only have one Raspberry Pi, I have written detailed instructions for Beovox RL 6000 over here, and they apply to CX 100 as well. Because we have updated the DSP profiles in the meantime, the correct register number for steps 2-3 is 479 and for steps 4-5 the correct number is 477, respectively. It's currently not a plug-and-play process, but this will be easier and included in the user interface in a brand new software which we will release for early testing later this summer.
If you use a Raspberry Pi on both amplifiers, it may be a bit easier, because you only need to plug in the optical cable between the two amplifiers – from the output of one to the input of the other – and then choose which one is the left and which is the right channel in the user interfaces for both speakers. Then you will play music to the one that is acting as the "output".
Can you tell me more about your intention of using a subwoofer? Do you plan on plugging a passive subwoofer to one of the unused speaker terminals?
Best,

Rop Vogels Hi Tuomas, the link you gave for the detailed instriuctions is not correct.
It goes to the wrong website, this is better: https://support.hifiberry.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360005450118-RL6000-Stereo-with-toslink
