This is adjusted by a trimmer potentiometer. If the trimmer pot is oxidized or otherwise flaky, it must be replaced - I understand Martin Dillen has a good supply of them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#39;s a good idea to replace the trimmers for each channel, while you&amp;#39;re at it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And while adjusting them, speakers must NOT be connected, and the volume control must be fully &amp;quot;Low&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is a heating issue of some sort I think&amp;nbsp;and the Beomaster is shut down for safety reasons.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Try unplugging the speakers and see if it takes the load on 32.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mine does and it means that the speaker outputs needs to be adjusted as they are out of specs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That is what I have come up with. I have yet to get to Dillen for the service but I have&amp;nbsp;talked with him about it.&lt;/p&gt;

My 5500 has the problem that it is getting/running very &lt;i&gt;very &lt;/i&gt;hot, but it doesn&amp;#39;t affect the sound quality and/or shuts down. I&amp;#39;m afraid you have to try taking it to a B&amp;amp;O Tech &lt;img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/06.gif" alt="Sad" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Beomaster 5500 sound over heating?</title><link>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/207915.aspx</link><pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2009 18:42:47 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:207915</guid><dc:creator>two4</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/207915.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=30&amp;PostID=207915</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;Well it might not be over heating. but whenever i listen to my beomaster at a louader volume it shuts off by it self and i have to reastart it. IM guessing is something thats not working correctly and it turns it self of before something worse&amp;nbsp;happened. So it shuts it self of at volume 32 everytime, sometime it takes a little bit and sometimes it just shuts off at the moment it hits 32... anyone have any ideas what this can be? a fuse that is broken?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;summarize&lt;/b&gt;: beomaster 5500 turns off at volume 32 by its self?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thank you for your time.&lt;/p&gt;
