My eclipse also makes a weird whistling noise when i shut it down, but apparently that’s normal according to b&o HQ.

Reminds me of an old joke. Guy takes his car to the dealer. It runs rough all the time. Oh, says the guy they all do that. It doesn't start easily when its cold. Oh, they all do that the mechanic says. It gets awful gas mileage. Oh they all do that.

Finally the guy says, don't tell me that! My wife has the identical car, same year and model and it doesn't do that!

Mechanic says, oh, well then, tell her to bring it in and we'll fix it.

Sorry, not making light of your experience, that has to be frustrating as can be and not what one should expect for a product in that price range. That is, about double what a fairly decent car costs.

Look iam not making this up, this is what b&o HQ tells me. But i must say they have elevated not really answering anything to an art form.

Just watched a movie on tv and it was ticking galore again.

I have them wired with cat7 cables.

Weirdly with wisa the ticking is mostly gone. But then i have issues with them turning on, they usually don’t sync up or they don’t come on at all. If they turn on, it takes them several tries. Tweeters come up and down up and down up and down, mismatched between the speakers. Sometimes only left, sometimes only the right one. And then once they’re on they echo and you have to go to a different speaker group and back again and then they work. This is besides the point when you connect the bl50’s via wisa they don’t sound the same and they actually sound worse but louder.

So far everything has been replaced and iam still no further. Cat7 cables, power cables, power extension block with surge protector(even tried one without surge protection), tried them on a separate power socket too, my beoremote one(power button stopped working), the bl50’s speakers have all been replaced. The only thing that hasn’t been replaced is my eclipse.

Hi, my name is Chris and I’m located in Germany.

i just picked up a pair of Beolab 50 and a BeoSound Core.

For some reason I’m not able to connect them right. (Master cant find Slave / connected via Powerlinkcable)

Could a Beolab 50 Owner please tell me the correct way to connect everything ?

I have no chance to get a hold of my B&o Dealer the next 3 Days. (That’s way to long:)) )

Thank you for your help.

The cable that connected the Master / Slave is not working.

i just tested a regular cat5 cable and now everything works fine.
