Hey

I need some help. I am attaching a ML\MCL converter bow to me Avant to play some to my passive Jamo speakers. How every I can not get any sound. Are there some installation instructions some where that might tell me how to set this up?  Am I missing something here is my current setup:

 
Avant Powerlink cable to ML\MCL box

Avant Masterlink cable to ML\MCL box

Passive Speaker to ML\MCL box

Thanks

Do you need the Masterlink cable connected? If you are just using it as an amp to drive some speakers I would imagine you only need Powerlink. This was all the older MCL2P had.

You only need the powerlink cable connected to the Avant and your passives connected to the converter. The powerlink cable MUST be a MK2 type, sometimes called fully wired.

Have you downloaded the user manual. It is on the site I have just checked.

Craig

Where is the manual? I did not see it maybe I looked at the wrong thing. I saw the MaterLink handbook and the MLC2 guide.

 

I used the the Powelink cable that came with me BeoLab 2.  Would that work? 

Try this link Brendon

Thanks, trying it now.  I'm sure its the powerlink cable now.  I have a thin one so I'm going to pick a one up from my dealer...

 
Thanks....

Okay.  I have a new Powerlink MKII cable and its still not working. The stand by button is still red too.  Does it change, to green maybe?

Yes it will turn green, when the amp. is on.

Maybe the PowerLink socket in the Avant is dead (or turned off if you can do that).

Make sure you have unplugged it so it resets to only work on PL instead of ML and make sure you have set front speaker ON 

Thanks that was it.  I unpluged the ML\MCL and the Avant.  Once I plugged them both back in it worked fine.  Thanks to you all.

I have an Avant with a surround kit and was thinking of using my ML/MCL as an amp to run passive speakers through the tv. I understand everything said before me, but which connection do I plug in the cable? There are front left & right speaker connections and rear left and right speaker connections on the back of the TV. The Converter is left and right channel, so if I plug it in to (for example) the left front speaker connection, will I have stereo sound coming out of my speakers? If I connect a second ML/MCL Converter to just one of the rear speaker connectors will I then have surround sound?

Hopefully my questions make sense, and it would be great if someone could help......

Thanks everyone

PowerLink carries both left and right signal. So it does not matter whether you plug it in the left or the right front PowerLink socket.

And yes, if you have another MCL/ML and another pair of speakers, and you use the rear PowerLink socket you will have surround sound.

Thanks Christian

Reviving an old one here...

@jldmelb: Did you end up doing this? Results?

I am considering doing the same thing.
