    Hello

     

    I have 2 Beolab penta towers.

    When the volume goes too high 1 tower shuts off.

    I have to unplug the tower and plug it back in to get it working again.

    I have read that this can be caused by a too low resistance. Is anyone familiar with this problem and can help me fix this problem?

     

    The faulty tower has a different and older power chord than the working one. Maybe this is related to the problem.

     

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Akarts,

    You may have answered your own question – are you putting too much power through the Pentas?

    What are the Pentas connected to? What are you using to drive them?

    A Penta has 300W output… your neighbourhood will know every detail of your songs…

    It’s the adjustment of the “no load current” potentiometer … or the poti itself is defect… overheating the amp. Touch the metal of the amp, it becomes pretty hot with this defect.
