Hi. This is my first post to the forums, although reading many posts helped me down the B&O path.
After lusting after a B&O music setup for 25 years or so, I finally was able to realise the dream and bought a Beolab 18 and 19 setup a couple of weeks ago. I'm delighted. Worth the wait.
My question is - is it ok for the speakers to be always on? They are connected via WISA to the Transmitter 1 which in turn is connected by power link to the B&O Connection Hub which marries my Panasonic TV and my Sonos Connect streamer and allows me to switch between the two sources. In this configuration, despite the connection hub going to sleep after a period with no sound coming in, the speakers appear to be always on. If I put my ear to them (well the 18s), I can hear a faint hiss indicating they are powered on.
I thought they they switched themselves off after a period of no sonic input and then would wake from sleep on demand, causing the green led ring to light up for a few seconds. Have I got this wrong? Is what I am experiencing standard expected behaviour and if not, will it damage the speakers?
thanks in advance for your help.
Scott
