Beolab 4000 Mk2
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 9, 2022 10:18 GMT

Indeed and thanks Beobuddy. I have replaced or mended all but this board and was hoping to rescue it, but guess it's not possible. There was obviously some kind of catastrophic power surge on the unit, with evidence of b…

Narrowed this problem down, and it is indeed an issue with PCB03. Noticed on visual inspection that one of the three pin SOT's had blown. Tested with a multi-meter and nothing. Would normally replace the entire board, bu…

Hi Phil, I had the same with my beolab8000's (mk1) connected to a Beosystem3 (mk3). Every so often I would get a 'cracking' sound out of just one of them. Almost like a static build-up releasing? Was scratching my head a…

Thanks for the info. Chucky. My Beolink gateway is the old legacy product, so not sure if the LG driver is available for it? I wanted to attached my HASSIO configuration to it, but was told by Khimo that it was only avai…

Beolink Gateway

I have had a love-hate relationship with the Beolink Gateway. At the moment I am loving it. I recently purchased a Beosound Stage (my first foray into the NL products) along with an LG C14. Followed the setup for control…

Thanks for the advise Schletti82. However, that didn't really answer my question? I will need to refurbish my speakers soon, so wanted to understand what is possible.

Beolab 8000 Upgrade

Hi Beoworlders, Has anyone managed to upgrade their Beolab8000's (MK1) with the ICE modules from the later models (>2010)? Is this even possible? Is there more to it than the replacement of the ABL PCB? Thanks

Hi Beoworlders, Had a quick question regarding the remote control of the BM5/BS5? I currently have a standalone unit (not connected via masterlink) with the usual network connection, power cord, speakers and the BeoSound…

Beomaster/Beosound 5 dead?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Sept 15, 2020 10:25 GMT

Hi Guy, Blown capacitors are quite easy to spot. The top of the capacitor has a cross pattern cut into the alloy and if the capacitor is damaged in any way, the cross opens up and lets out what looks like insulation mate…

Hi Rkopf, I had the exact same issue with mine after a power serge. Check the Beomaster5 main boards (motherboard) capacitors around the CPU. For mine, the first capacitor had blown in the sequence of four. These capacit…

Hey Paul, Just gone through a similar experience replacing a Mk1 with a Mk3 Beosystem in my BV9. The hardest thing I found was getting into it, to swap over the motorised stand cable (this is done by removing the feet an…

BeoSound 5 Not Recognizing CD ID and Track Names
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 3, 2020 13:16 GMT

I too was quite disappointed about the B&O CD ripper not tagging its contents. Its a fundamental function of the product. I haven't found any product that can replace the functionality completely. So why don't we owners …
