Beolab 50 is so unstable with me...
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 23, 2019 12:43 GMT

So I was finally home again to test the wired setup. I plugged in a network cable and one speaker (the master) started to ply straight away. So I did a factory reset in the 50's and now everything is working fine again. …

Thanks all I will indeed go through the nasty process of adding a network cable through my setup. It needs a few hours of cabling work unfortunstely due to a nasty setup of my living. I am comfortable that the wifi issue…

If they work they sound absolutely fab. but..... quite often I have one of these two problems (or even both) 1) No wifi connection, so no way of controlling it via the app. where as my home wifi network is stable. 2) No …

Beolab50 has big audio delay vs Beosound 8000 -Pls Help-
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 23, 2018 12:25 GMT

Sure, I got that. Thanks It can "only" be set to 10 meters and I found that actually putting it to 0 works best for me. I really do not know how it solved my issue but when I disconnected the center speaker from the syst…

Thanks Mr 10percent, great idee. So I immediately went into the Marantz SR8012 setup menu but unfortunately I can only set speaker distances to a maximum of 18 meters, so hardly any noticable difference. Damn it seemed s…

Well I fixed it (kind of I guess). So it took 3 consecutive complete factory resets in order to finally get access to my Beolab50's. I created a new preset with the narrow beam and Latency set to Low. I reduced the level…

Cannot wake up my Beolab 50 through the app
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 21, 2018 22:12 GMT

It has worked before but now I just cannot connect to my Beolab 50's anymore. The app says it is waking the BL50's up but I cannot get to them. When I connect through the "products" entry, I get an error saying "We canno…

Thanks guys, you are probably very right on the Latency timing. I misinterpreted that (no native english speaker) so I probably have set it to a wrong level. Now if only I could get to my Beolab50's to change it 😠 The a…

I have a Marantz SR8012 with 2 Beolab50's en 2 Beosound 8000's connected through pre-out. The Beolab50's have a very significant audio delay vs the 8000's when in Dolby + or any other surround sound setting. I tried ever…

How to reduce the treshold on beolab 50?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 25, 2018 16:02 GMT

Thank you all for your answers and in the end the solution was much simpler than I expected. As I wrote in my original post I figured out that I had to reduce the treshold myself already. The problem was that when I clic…

My Beolabs 50 are driven by a Marantz SR8012. they are woken up by a teigger from the Marantz and kept alive when the soundlevel is above a certaun treshold in my Line in RCA of -53 dbV. unfortunately when I play soft ba…

Beolab 50 won't install
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 14, 2018 09:55 GMT

Pffff it works again. I have connected the two speakers with a network cable not using the Powerlink connector, just the network connector. I have done a factory reset 3 times and finally it worked again. No idea what so…

I have a pair of Beolab 50's connected through RCA to my Marantz SR8012 amplifier. It worked well untill I wanted to do a mic calibration. The speakers stopped responding after I put the mic in. Ok, so I pulled out the m…

Great suggestion, thanks Steve. I was not aware of their existence and will ask B&O directly. My dealer was already struggling to find the calibration microphone for the 50's ;-) Peter

in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 11, 2018 14:25 GMT

The Beolab 50's are quite big as we all know and the best sound quality can be achieved if they have a bit of breathing space on the back. Unfortunately my room is not extremely big and on normal use they are fine just a…

Should I add a Beolab 2 subwoofer to my Beolab 50 set?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 1, 2018 19:31 GMT

I will get my Beolab 50 set tomorrow, so I am very excited as you can imagine. I still have 2 Beolab 2's sub woofers from my prev setup and wonder whether to include them in my setup or not? I can understand why in a pur…

Ik heb zo langzamerhand mijn collectie hifi apparatuur wel bij elkaar en als ik tot een deal kan komen op de Beolab 50's -zie vorige post- dan ben ik denk ik wel compleet. Aleen nu komt het (voor mij) moeilijkste stuk; a…

Hi all, Ik ben in gesprek met een dealer om mogelijk een demo paar Beolab 50's over te nemen. Ik zou alleen eens uitgebreid met iemand praten die ze al heeft. Echte gebruikerservaringen aanhoren en wellicht een keertje e…
