I had the same issue with one shutting down and sometimes watching a film it would just cut off completely. Both 28s are connected via a cable. Master to slave upon setup. Both 28s now have a separate feed each running to the harmony as we thought this may fix the issue. I have had the WiFi modem removed today by B&O and they fitted a commercial B&O access point which created a new WiFi connection. 

This hasn’t resolved the issue. I really don’t know what else I can do. Any more suggestions?

My local B&O dealer have been here 4 times and still no luck. 

Regarding changing WiFi from 2.4 to 5.2. I pick up my neighbours WiFi signal and today we removed my router for the B&O one.  

Hi there

Did you have any resolution of the clicking sound on the Beolab 28?

I just bought a pair, and the right speaker makes a static clicking sound once or twice an hour. It happens on all sources (wireless powerlink, bluetooth, spotify) and happens both on and in standby. Left speaker is fine. 

Best regards

Issue is still on going. They have been back and forth. In touch with Denmark and they say I’m the only person worldwide with the issue.

Next week they intend to swap my 28s for 18s to see if I experience the clicking noises on the 18s. Also they will plug my 28s in at their store and see if they hear the clicking there. (Sat next to the speaker as it’s making the noise right now)

Glad I’m not the only person. 

Who is your WIFI provider?

Do you have a Sky Q box in the room?

Do you have the Harmony TV?

P.s how annoying is it. Both my speakers do it and you cannot watch a film without being reminded of how your £££ speakers do not work as they should 

With me it’s only one speaker. I don’t see why it would have any relation with wifi. I use my speakers with a soundsend wisa-device connected to a Sony TV. 

To me it sounds like a electrical fault. 

Just wrote B&O Denmark today so I’ll keep you postet. 

Good luck, 

Please keep me informed as no one in Denmark or at my local B&O store currently have an answer. 

They say it’s highly likely to interference by WiFi but I asked my neighbour to turn his WiFi off and both speakers made the noises and on my phone the only WiFi listed was mine. B&O replaced my BT WiFi box with a B&O access point as they thought that was the issue.

They have been helpful but I’m still in the same position 

I’m thinking about upgrading my BL18/19 with 28 when the time is right, but reading this makes me sceptic.. Is it a good idea to integrate streaming service in this type of loudspeaker? I’m a bit unsure.. I have BL3 in my kitchen, they are from 2005 or so, and I love them. They look and sound good. But what if they had a 2005 streaming device built in? A IPod wheel on top of the ALT lens? It would have been outdated years ago.. So - is the longlivity good with BL28? 

Remember, still they have integrated streaming service, they still have Powerlink and optical line in. So if/or in the future you want other streaming service you can still connect a new bs core or some other brand, and powerlink is the prefer settings. So if you prefer and external streaming service that is not support in bl28 in future you can still us the beolab 28 many years like your old beolab today. :) :) So go for it :) 

They look great and sound great but I don’t understand why a company dealing with high end products cannot prevent issues like this. My 28 subwoofer was damaged after 1 month, the speaker blew on it. But they replaced it under warranty.

For me the clicking noises has to be an electrical fault somewhere. Whether it be the communication between speaker and TV. I’m not sure but gladly for my sake I’m not the only one experiencing it which is great to know as the finger was being pointed at my set up.
