Hi all,

I reveived a beolab 3500 from a new owner of an old house with B&O material.

But the beolab 3500 doesn't power on.

Someone knows what i could verify  first ?

 

Thanks

Is there a red LED with lights on?

If it is the later version of the BL3500 (MK2) it will not react to source commands if it is not connected to an audiomaster.

To check for signs of life you could try to press Menu, 0, 0, GO on your remote (is it a BEO4 remote you have?)

This should give som basic information in the display like sw version
