    problem solved! 🙂
    a friend just came over and saw the speaker on the floor. He took it with him because his partner is an electronics wizard.

    I thank you again for your support!

    I had to google what’s powerlink, rca and my conclusion is “something else”.
    Maybe there’s a better way to connect the speakers to my old pioneer amplifier but I was happy as it was.

    yes, the led stays green as long as I play smth, when music stops, after +/- 30 secs it turns to red.
    I suppose what you call amplifier is the 2 parts electronics inside the speaker, one with the copper coil and above (as the speaker stands) is the one with more electronics.
    In the shop the guy showed me 2 little black fuses (under the traf board) and measured them, saying they were all right.

    thank you for not giving up on me!
    It could be a simple thing but when I went to the B&O “repair center” here in The Hague/Netherlands the guy, though I had the amplifier urnit with me, said it has to be send to a lab and that will cost 350 euros. On top of that will come the part that needs to be replaced and spare parts are rare to come by. That’s why I felt so discouraged, that’s why Im happy when anyone wants to assist me.

    The led turns green when I turn the power on (the 110 volts from the transformer).
    I hear a click in the first part pictured in the photos, there some transformer it (judging with my knowledge from the many copper wires in pic 2 and 3)
    If nothing else happens, after a while I hear another click and the lamp turns red.
    It’s the same behavior I got in the past, when I didnt play music but left the speakers plugged in electricity.
    (the other speaker works fine, I didnt force 220 on it)
    The speakers themselves do not give any music when I play, just the click I described above, when it turns from red to green.

    Patiently waiting 🙂

    hello KolfMaker

    and thanks for the reply! when one is in the dark, even hearing a voice is reassuring.
    Answers:
    didnt hear pop, saw smoke and just sniffed around, doesnt smell of burned electronics.
    I didnt try the speakers just yet but got them out, vacuumed the dead foam and they look very well there.
    I attach here the images you suggested, I hope they’re clear enough. If you mean I should measure smth, pls try to describe which points. If that helps, I could mark each one with a number, in the pix.
    I also attach a pic of the thing I have to measure “life”. Pls excuse the mess around the parts themselves, Im a painter and my house is a mess…
