Hi,

I've purchased the Masterlink to headphone cable form Sound Heavenly some time ago and wanted to give it a try.

I have connected the Beolab 2000 to the main and also connected the masterlink cabe to to it and to my iphone on the other end.

the instruction I found was to do the following with Beo4: MENU 0 9 GO ^ (Up Arrow) CD CD.

I assume that it means that I should  press: Menu +  zero + 9 + GO +  ^ + CD + CD.

I've tried this by pressing both up arrow (the volume) and also with the up arrow between the green and yellow) buttons and nothing happens and the signal lamp remains red. 

Am I missing something? What do you think I should do?

Thanks Steve, resetting the Beolab 2000 to option 6 solved the problem.

Hi,

Just a quick update to confirm that I no longer offer this type of cable, as the parts are no longer available.  Instead, I now suggest using a Beolink Converter type 1161166 between the music source and the Beolab 2000 speaker for better sound quality.

Kind regards, Steve.
