On the lower left side of the Beomaster is a row of holes. Behind them (inside) are trimmers (potentiometers)
for preset'ing of input levels.

Wow! Did I totally miss the mark on that previous post!?!?!

I wasn't even thinking about the side, but rather under the lid!

Sorry! (but we still like pics!)

They often oxidize and lose contact but insert a small screwdriver and rotate them back and forth
a couple of times each and they will usually work fine again. Worth trying in your case.

There is some "hole" on the left of the beomaster, On the pane they are descibed as "controls" does anyone knows whats that and how to use ?

Might you be able to upload a pic of the "hole?"

When I received my BM8000, some of the tone controls had pushed in slightly. I could see that if they had been completely pushed in -that the result could be defined as a "hole."

Hi all,

Unfortunately I've tested but nothing changed. I even bought an CDX2 that plug with RCA and the sound is still mono.

Thanks

I had the same problem, the plug was not inserted correctly in my Ipod, it went in ok but I had to press kind of harder to get it all way in.

Thanks for your answer.

I'm using a cable (mentioned stereo) that I bought on ebay. It's a new one. It's using 5 pin on one side and mini jack on the other that I plug on my dock or directly on my Ipod.

I would guess it is the cable - what sort are you using? I would use a dock and connect to the RCA plugs for Tape 2.

Hi all,

I've just bought a beomaster 8000

I just plug my Ipod with a stereo cable (on Tape1 or Tape2) to it and it can't play stereo. It seems that only one speaker works. When I choose Mono the two speakers work. When I'm using the radio, the stereo mode Works.

Does anyone has an idea ?

Thank you very much for your help.

Regards,

Cyril
