B&O Stage on YouTube
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 7, 2021 13:48 GMT

You are absolutely right, I am also uninformed about their media strategy and the reasons they have to withhold their products from video reviewers. But for a long time I have been annoyed by the lack of "independent" vi…

[quote user="MaxH"] In one way it adds to the credibility of the review somewhat. [/quote] From a consumers point of view, maybe. But shouldn't the marketing department be more concerned with getting eyeballs on the prod…

I was straight up shocked to hear that they don't give review units to professional Youtube channels like his. That is unbelievably irresponsible marketing management!

The Beolab 7-4 is also pretty affordable now. Especially when bundled with a BV7-32 MkI 😎 More compact and with an acoustic lens like the Beolab 3s.

Mine was in a powersurge due to an defective power outlet. (the seller said the same outlet killed her laptop charger soon afterwards) Changed it for a DVD 2 MKII PSU and it worked again. BUT: For some reason the IR rece…

Non BO subwoofer with Beolab 8000
in General Discussion & Questions · May 23, 2020 17:43 GMT

Thank you, Jeff! Good to know that this setup "should" work! I really think that I bought a broken Sub. After listening and trying a few times I noticed that its (low) volume is inconsistent and sometimes it buzzes in va…

Here is a quick diagram of the cabling layout i used. The BL8000s work absolutely fine with this setup. I tested the R/L chanels. Both seem to work ->subwoofer works (quietly) with either one of them disconnected.

Hey trackbeo, Thank you for your reply! Maybe I should have phrased the question differerently, tbh. -> I was wondering mainly if powerlink signals were for some reason to quiet/weak for usulal line input on (working) eq…

Hey Guys, I also wanted to improve the low end of my BL 8000 without spending 1000€ on a 15 year old sub. I bought a sub second hand to test the setup. I have a similar (test)setup over Powerlink, but my subwoofer seems …

Thank you for checking! I was hoping it could be a 12V trigger like on a "normal" system.

Beocenter 2 CTRL Socket
in General Discussion & Questions · May 2, 2020 16:33 GMT

Hi CB, That is why I suspect the BC2 sends a trigger to the TV. I was especially wondering if it only triggers out in DVD mode and if the trigger signal is usable for other equipment.

Beocenter 2 CTRL Socket
in General Discussion & Questions · May 2, 2020 14:35 GMT

Hi everyone, does someone know about the functionality of the Ctrl socket on the Beocenter 2? Is it an input or an output? Could it be used to trigger on/off an (off brand) active subwoofer for example or is it only for …

The belt in my BC2 is also on its way out. I also e-mailed some places and got no response. Maybe someone has info on the dimensions of the belt ?

Hi Matador, this is actually the Century I inherited from my father. He bought it the same year I was born and gave it to me when I moved out. The covers are burgundy and genuine. It always has been well kept and repaire…

Happy to finally flash my B&O setup on the best thread on Beoworld :) Everything was bought broken or in need of service to keep the cost down. Everything works beautifully now! The BC 2 is fairly obsolete but I love the…

Beolab 6000 intermittently muffled
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Mar 31, 2020 14:07 GMT

Hi Ronnie, I have experienced something very similar. It turned out to be a conector with worn out pins. I probably bent the pins, taking the speaker apart. Bent them back and it was fine. Maybe worth a try to you as wel…

A dealer in Berlin is selling foam kits for Beolab 4000, 6000 and 8000 at the moment. Seems to be OEM as well. Just search for "Bang & Olufsen Dämpfungsmater ial" on eBay. Very annoyingly it is the same dealer wich refus…

in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 21, 2019 19:45 GMT

I finally got around to disassemble the speaker and clean the I/O Board and the switch with contact cleaner. Unfortunately to no effect. I didn't notice any loose connections with the naked eye. Furthermore I noticed tha…
