Would it be possible to use a customized PL cable to circumvent that issue?

Hi Svenni,

Thanks for your suggestion. I am working on connecting the BeoLab 8000's amplifier PCB with my own WiFi & streaming electronics. I need a direct connection internally PCB to PCB, to make my system truly wireless. A PL cable would not work for my purpose.

Thanks anyhow.

Hi Dillen, I know what the numbers mean. But I am not sure which pin has which number.

The connector that goes into P4 has a brown, white and black wire.
Having the white wire in the middle, this must be pin-2.

But can you please tell which pin number brown and black are?

Look at the board.
It's printed there, visible in your photo.

Brown 1
White 2
Black (screen) 3

You are right, thanks!

Hi Dante, one thing I don’t understand. P4 is connected to the cinch connector in the stand/foot of the speaker. But the cinch only has two wires (one for Left or Right and one for Ground.

So to what is the 3rd wire connected to (so the Autostart functions)?
