Thank you to our Sponsors
In one of the beolab 5 speakers (connected through the beosystem 4), I get the following problem several times per day: a loud cracking noise/sounds, as if someone is shooting from a gun-machine for about 0.5-2 sec (sounds like 3-10 "pistol shots".
I have no idea what to do and it’s really annoying me?
Maybe someone else already had a similar problem and knows how to solve it?
Have you tried swapping the Power Link wire that connects it to the BS4 with a replacement (or even just wiggling the connectors at either end of the existing wire)? It might be that the problem lies there...
Cheers

Hi ESBOSS,
Yes, that does sound like it could be a cable issue as Geoff sugggested. You could try swapping the cables to the opposite speakers to see if the fault moves with the cable or stays with the same speaker. I'm happy to offer you new Beosystem 4 to Beolab 5 cables on a sale or return basis to try out without obligation if that helps:-

It's a shame that my topic got turned into advertising various cables… Well, I changed the signal source and cable, but the shots still continue. Hence the conclusion is that the problem is inside the speaker. Maybe someone had similar shots / problems?
Hi ESBOSS,
No advertising was intended, just an offer of help...... At least you know you don't have a cable fault now. It looks like a possible hardware fault on the system or speakers, so I would suggest contacting your local B&O store to see if they can recommend a repairer.
Kind regards, Steve.
