If you use the Line in socket on the speakers, they recognise when music is playing and switch on automatically. The Beolab 2 could be a problem.

I use a B&O cable with a head phone jack on one end and a power link on the other to connect my ipod/computer/etc... to a BS9000.  If you can connect that to the 3000, that would work.  If you're looking to connect directly to the speakers (I have a BL2 connected to 2 BL8000s), I haven't tried... but I would be willing to give it a try if you really want to know the answer.
