Yes, you can connect your Beolab 18 or subwoofer to non-Bang & Olufsen products.
The speakers/subwoofer must be connected to the line output (volume controlled line out) of the amplifier. Different kinds of cables are required depending on the type of sockets on your speaker/subwoofer, see the table below. The cables are available from your Bang & Olufsen retailer. You can find your nearest retailer here.
If there is no Line-in on the speakers/subwoofer, and a Power Link connection is required, then use a Line/Power Link adaptor cable.
