Any joy Jacob ? Funnily enough there’s a post re and S8 not powering up. Looks like the capacitors could be an issue. Cheers Jonny

Very useful post - many thanks. Can a blown IC also take out a cap or two ? Jacob and I are currently experiencing no power after a blown IC. He’s on an S8, I’m running a Beolab 14. Thanks Jonny

Many thanks Mat j'adore :-) Will do some more googling. Don't want to spend £80 or so and find out I've got the wrong bits.

Had a look behind me and under the bed, but couldn’t see any… Perhaps I should explain a bit further - I can find slats, but not sure whether they’re sufficient quality, look good etc etc Im hoping that someone who has d…

My son is getting a 3D printer for his 12th birthday, so I'm going to get him to print me a set of the brackets to allow me to fit wooden slats to my 8000's. I'm struggling however, to find the wooden slats in the UK. Do…

Hi Jacob - haven’t revisited I’m afraid, I was away at the weekend and had a ton of things on since. Did you try the green button ? I’m afraid I wouldn’t know where to start, looking at the individual smd’s, even with a …

Thanks for the update. My cable arrived from Steve along with helpful instructions on which of the 4 sockets to plug it in to. Turns out I was using all the wrong options. Still doesn’t work. Will hopefully be able to ge…

Wonder if that’s the same on the 14 ? Must admit, I didn’t seem to have any mounting issues. How far apart are the 14 and S8 in terms of design, componentry etc ?

Are you sorted Jacob ? Hopefully you’ve got it all working again.

Good luck - interestingly, I found a green micro switch tucked away on the ICE board. Tried pressing it with power off and with power on, but no change. Could be that it needs to be held in for a few seconds ? Just surmi…

Thanks - that’s interesting. Although I’m getting nothing. Could be a dicky Powerlink cable, I’ll do a continuity test on it tomorrow. Appreciate the help. Jonny

Thanks for the quick reply. The only light I can see is a white knob type thing underneath. Bear in mind I’ve never had this working, so don’t know the functionality etc. Nothing lights up at the moment. Cheers Jonny

Hi Jacob - hope all is well. Did you get your diode swapped over ? My Beolab 14 is back with me and all connected up, but no switching on from the Powerlink connector. I'm using a Powerlink to RJ45 connector, but no resp…

I have my hopefully fully functioning Beolab 14 back with me and with a new IC to replace the blown one. It’s connected to my Beolab 8000s with a powerlink to RJ45 input cable. That then goes into a Poerlink splitter, wh…
