Hi,
I have a B&O music setup which includes a pair of Beolab 4000, Beolab 2 and a Beolab 7.1.
I have had this setup for around 2 years now with no problems, recently I wanted to hide away all the cables, the only way to do this in my house because of reasons i'm not going into is to drill small holes through the wall and clip the powerlink and power cables to an outside wall.
I am an electrician so i went ahead and drilled all the holes in the wall and hide all the cables, I sealed up all the holes with silicon sealant.
Problem is that when I switch on the power to the speakers there is a loud hum and the LED's on the speakers are yellow.......But as soon as I switch on the stereo system (Beocenter 9300) the hum completely goes away, the LED's go Green and i hear crystal clear sound.
What do you think the problem is? The mains 240V power and Genuine B&O MK3 powerlink cables go through the same holes in the wall, but i have separated them whenever i can on the external wall, but I thought the Powerlink cables are screened??
I was gentle with all the cables on install and didn't cut any and I don't think i've damaged anything.
Also, the humming tends to get worse whenever it rains outside??
Thanks for the advice??
Paul.
