I have two pairs of Beolab 6000s. One is used as rear speakers in a surround setup, and the other as the two main speakers on a spare TV. These pairs were both purchased used a while ago. I noticed that the two speakers in the surround setup were distorting a bit during loud volume, so I wanted to switch them. When I did, I noticed that the mains plugs for each are different. One has a mains adapter that has two oval type shapes, and the other has an oval plus one with a flat end. I can't just switch the mains cables easily without some work as they are fished through the walls (wall-mounted beolab 6000s). Has anyone noticed that there are two types of mains cable shapes? Is there an adapter of some sort??!?!
There is no problem. you cable with 2 oval shapes will fit the speaker with one oval and one square connector.. Just plug it in... I have the same oval-square connector on my bl7, and i use a round-round cable without issues.

OK I used your solution but they didn't fit the other way around (square end mains cable in oval-oval recepticle. I just ended up using a knife to shave off the corners of the square end and it worked. Strange....never realized there was different connectors.
I have BL 4000, 8000 and all square.
