    Just when you try everything...

    ... the answer shows how idiotic I am!

    So I finished wiring Beoport in my living room (I have a Mac Mini Music Library) in a bookshelf masterlinked to a Beosound 9000 which is hung on the wall. Everything seems to be working. Except no sound!

    I unwire, rewire, play around with the Beoport software configuration, etc... NOTHING... (the speakers; a Beolab 2 connected to a pair of BL3s which are powerlinked to the Beosound9000)....

    Lo and behold, after about 40 minutes of further tinkering what do I find? That the Mini is on mute!

    I slap my forehead in absurd laughter.... 

    I also thought that the Beoport couldn't "handle" the large music library. 79GB worth of music on an external HD connected via firewire to the Mini, so I created a smaller library to see what would happen... LOL

    ... and it was on mute! ha ha ha!

    Just thought I'd share in the frustration.

    Done much the same myself! The mute button on the Apple keyboard is a menace! Laughing

    Very funny! Makes you want to bang your hand against the wall! But everybody who says that he hasn't had such situations is not telling the whole truth...
