Beolab 2 turning off and on and repeat with non-B&O amplifier

3 replies

I am connecting my BL 2 to a Marantz AV amp with a trigger box that I used for my BL 10 in the past. When I turn on the amp, the BL 2 turns on no problem. But when I turn off the amp, the BL 2 turns itself off after awhile, but immediately it will turn on again, this off and on cycle will repeat itself since there is no signal coming from the amp. Does anyone knows where might go wrong?

Thanks!

Does it still do it if your amp is turned off at the mains? Sounds to me like the amp is still sending a trigger signal.

Good point. I fiddled around and it seems the problem lies with the ATV 4K which is the only input source. If I exit the ATV4 properly, ie menu back to home screen before shut off the system, the BL2 turns off properly. Why is that I dont know, but at least its working now. Thanks!
