Beomaster 5000 amp and beolab 6000 speakers

[bishbosh12]

Hi, looking at floorstanders to replace my C75s and so considering the Beolab 6000.

 

My question is if I connect using the pre-amp output can I control the volume using the Beomaster?

And replying to myself the answer is……yes 🙂

Hi! Cool to hear this works for you. Can you talk me through the cable setup you used to connect the Be centre 5000 to the Beolab 6000 speakers.becsuse whatever I do I get crazy loud humming especially when the Beocentre is on standby.

 

Thank you!

Apologies for slow reply…

I did get this with the first set of (cheap) rca to rca cables I used, which I then changed for shielded ones (I subsequently got free from the people I bought the speakers from) which did improve matters. Since then I’ve changed amp to an Audiolab 8300CDQ and in just one speaker I do get a very slight hum when the amp goes into standby but not straight away though. Not sure if I need better shielded cables or if it’s the speaker.
