Both speakers now work with line in but not powerlink from my beocenter 2300

 

The one without serial number has no pin code yet it switches off after 5 mins then have to switch on again by pressing radio on beo 4, glad if technician can find out serial number from chasis will find out pin soon.

 

The one that works flashes green the whole time whilst playing.

 

I press button on top of both speakers but neithers mic works.

L-opt 0 is factory setting. Used with powerlink cables.

L-opt is for use with Line input socket and Beo4 radio command.

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.

So option 0 on beo 4 remote should make beocenter 2300 work ?

I have put the beo4 into option 0 now when i press cd both the beloab 5 speaker and beocenter 2300 switch on but there is no sound.

 

I try the right left switch on beolab 5 still no success.

 

I have ordered new powerlink mk2 cables for the beolab 5's.

 

Also i have noticed 1 of the forward facing woofers is making no sound how much is a replacement?

 

Also how do i remove the beolab 5 covers?

 

Many thanks for all your help guys
