    Connecting Pentas with Speakerlink

    Hi everyone,

    I have a pair of Penta IIs that I am trying to connect to a Beomaster 6500 with 4-pin Speakerlink cables and I am having problems. When they are connected as a pair, the displays light up on both speakers, but one speaker always remains in standby (red light on amp). When connected individually, each speaker works fine, but for some reason I cannot get both speakers to work at once. When connected with Powerlink cables, they work fine as a pair. When using 2-pin cables, they also work minus the displays. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?? I have tried all sorts of arrangements on the amp settings and with different connection combinations! Confused

    Thanks,

    Aaron

    Did you adjust the switches to: Auto?

    Speakerlink sends only a left or a right signal, not both like powerlink.

    Yes, I switched both panels to Auto and turned on the system. Both of the Pentas were green until I went from standby to playing a CD. At that point, one went red, and the other remained green and played. I have the Input level switch set at I. I reversed the cables into the receiver and still the same problem occured.
