Thanks everyone for your input, it would seem that I have a perfectly normal system. I'll avoid turning off the speakers before power on as that does seem to make the problem worse.

Does anyone know if there is any kind on inline relay that could be installed to get rid of the pop?

At the same time, does anyone have a spare antenna plug for the Beomaster? I can shove in some wires but it does not look to good.

My Beolab 5000 delivers a pop when the PHONO button is depressed as it is switched on. Am quite used to hearing that from different amp/speaker setups, particulalry with tube amp's. No pop when TAPE is depressed, as the DAC doesn't deliver a similar surge.

Not worrying about it. The strength of the pop depends upon which record player I have connected.
