Beovision 9 sound problem

9 replies

The centre channel has stopped working on my Beovision 9 my front beolab 5’s work fine and my beolab 4000 rear speakers also work I’ve not changed any settings that I know off any help would be appreciated.

I was a BV9 owner along with BL9s but never came across this issue. The only thing I can think to suggest is a total system reset, so unplug all equipment and leave disconnected from the main for about an hour or so or even overnight. More than you need too, but that’s what I would probably try. You could double check the sound settings through the menu I guess although if you haven’t changed anything to date then I can’t see what more you could do. I am sure others with much more experience will chip in but for my part that’s all I can think I’d do in the same situation before contacting B&O for help. Best of luck.

Were you playing a video source at a very high volume by chance?  Unplug the TV and wait 45 seconds and then plug it back in.  Does the center channel sound play now?  

Hi Simon ,

I’ve turned it off overnight but it’s still the same I’ve checked all the settings and they seem the same when I check speaker roles in the menu all the speakers are highlighted but the centre 1 speaker looks faded.
I don’t have the volume any higher than 40 to 45 for tv and higher for music I’ve tried unplugging it and plugging it back in but it makes no difference

unplug the bv9 for 3 to 5 minutes. (the entire bv9 not just the bs3!) did you make changes to the bs3? check whether the center is plugged into the bs3 with powerlink.

Hi,

I’ve tried unplugging both and it’s made no difference I’ve moved the centre speaker cable to one the works and I have no output so I think it must be the centre speaker or power link cable that connects it that’s at fault is it easy to access the front speaker or the power link cable?

it sounds like a failure in the ice power arm for the center channel. A friend has had a similar situation but his returns after unplugging the TV from the wall.

Did he replace the part ? Is it part of the speaker or is it a separate amplifier?
