I have checked this morning, by unplugging the beolab 2 and connecting the 8000s directly to the beomaster 7000 that the system itself is working fine. Then I reconnected everything including  the beolab2 again - and this time, the beolab 2 didn't light up green OR red. No light in fact. Perplexed - I am back to having the beolab 8000s alone for the moment ...

Thanks Andrew,

This sounds like a faulty subwoofer - if there is no light, the subwoofer may not be getting mains power, are you sure the power outlet/cable/fuse are all OK please?

Kind regards, Steve.

Thanks Steve. I shall almost certainly be buying some cables from you for this system anyway - the ones that came with the speakers are FAR too long for my needs ...

Thanks Andrew 🙂

Hope you manage to get the Beolab 2 sorted.

Kind regards, Steve.

Steve - following your suggestion I prefaced the fuse in the subwoofer plug - and all is fine now. I do feel silly! Any way - thanks. It was a 3 amp fuse so I replaced with the same - hope that is correct.

I shall measure the flexes and order some suitable shorter.

Thanks

Andrew

Replaced the fuse, not prefaced ....

Hi Andrew,

That is good news!  Yes, a 3 Amp fuse is correct for Beolab 2.  You may find that the sub occasionally blows this fuse in normal usage, but I would still recommend using a 3 Amp fuse instead of 5 Amp, for better protection.

Kind regards, Steve.
