Hi Kevin,

Yes, just change the backup battery and reset the unit, as described in the Beoworld article you mentioned. That should clear the problem. If not, just post back and I will try to help.

The 2 pin DIN speaker cables are still freely available in a variety of lengths. B&O also sell the 4 pin Speakerlink cables for speakers with displays, but you may find these quite a pricey option!

Best regards,

Steve.

Ah, thats good to know.

One last question, my 9500 is displaying code, when I turn it on.

I found this page http://www.beoworld.org/faq_view.asp?id=76, and have tried to do this, but it won't work I assume I need to replace the battery, but where is it.

thanks for all the help so far

regards

Kevin

Just one other thing Kevin - the positive side of the speaker cable connects to the round pole - negative to the flat spade.

Congratulations on your new system! I have the exact same, and it is great!

To connect ordinary passive speakers to it you need a special connector/cable called speakerlink described in the beginning of this page: http://beoworld.org/beotech/wiring2.htm

Disregard the data and shield part, you wont need these.

This is what the connector that goes into the beocenter looks like: 2 PIN DIN PLUG

You will need one of those connectors for each speaker you want to connect.

Simple question....

Hi,

I have just been given a 9500, and am trying to figure out how to connect speakers to it.

I have the manual, but all it says about is how to use the system, not how to set it up.

The model I have says it was made in 1986 if that makes a difference.

I already have some good speakers I was planning on using, I can't figure out how to hook them up.

Can anyone help?

thanks

Kevin
