hi everybody I'm new so please be patient. I have 8 bro lab 4000 speakers they are one after another beginning to crackle badly. I have to power them down. They may work ok for 1 hour and that's max. I contacted my dealer who asked if I've had a power surge. No was my reply they took one away and said the amp had blown? Does anybody know if b&o have a issue with these speakers and not letting on. Speakers are 5 years old.
Crackling speakers
Sorry should of been more clearer. The sound is crackling badly
Walter,
welcome to Beoworld and well done for being a Gold member. Also from my neck of the woods (Ashton, then Sale and Chorlton).
Do they do this no matter what the are connected to - what are they connected to? To have all of them go like this I would say is unheard of. I have 6 BL4000's and not a problem between them.
What cables do you have for them? If you swap cables does it change? How are the speakers set-up and what with - TV, audio source etc?
Dave.
Hi Dave I'm in daisy nook. The speakers are connected to Sonia. B&o 7 TV b&o CD player in very frustrated. They crackle all the time had 1 repaired free but I've been waiting to see how many break before I contact b&o again.
Sorry they were fitted by b&o it looks like a telephone line cable the one with all the coloured wires in. I've had crackling issues since they were installed. They came out on numerous occasions and reconnected the wires and they were fine. I think the wire they used is not adequate and that's caused the issues!
Which B&O CD player? Are the speakers connected to the TV or the CD player - I'm guessing it's a BS9000 but please tell us what it is. I'm confused by the cables you describe. The cable with lots of colours is a Masterlink cable to connect the TV to the CD pklayer - is that what you have? A picture would be good. The speakers should be connected to your TV with Powerlink cables (black like these):
Send me your email will send photo of system
OK Walter, nice set-up. Was it already installed when you bought the house or have you just had it installed? If the latter, who did it and when?
So, you have a BS9000 connected by Masterlink to your Beovision 7. I see 2 BL4000 speakers, where are the others? Do you have a multi-room set-up with speakers in other parts of the house? If you have speakers in the rest of the house, how are they controlled - do you have any IR eyes on the walls and any connection boxes?
We really need to know which speakers are connected to what? You may have some directly connected to the TV and possibly some to the BS9000.
Dave.
Thanks for your comment, the system was fitted new by b&O MANCHESTER 5 YEARS AGO. 5 speakers are direct to that tv and cd system in that room i also have 4 of the same speakers in kitchen and living room and 2 outside speakers on the patio. no eyes on walls, and as far as i know the only boxes i have are the sonos ones?
Walter
