Hi,

The cracking noise will probably be down to a bad solder joint somewhere in the Beomaster. I had a similar symptom with my Beomaster 8000 and this was te solution (several dry joints on the amplifier circuit board)!

As always, a new set of caps should be contemplated!

Speakers are back from re-foaming, I noticed a craking noise when I turn on the BM5500 and a humming noise but then it goes away and they sound awasome, anyone here knows what is the crack nad humming comming from?, I'm trying to search on it but not getting much...

please help

thank you for the replies guys, this ones are gray on the base and they have red & black standard connectors plus it came with a set of original speaker cables with a 4 pin connector, so are this the Boevox, or Beolab? and do you think it was a good purchase?

Quite a difference as pointed out between Beovox and Beolab Pentas. If there is a grey box at the base, it is a lab. A Beovox is easy to connect - two pin DIN speakers cables are all you need.

Hey Beoworld, Im so excited to join, I just recently purchased a pair of Boevox pentas, still trying to figure out which are they, I II or III,

Welcome to Beoworld.

The BeoVOX penta's were passive speakers & only one incarnation were produced which would make them MK1's I suppose. It was the BeoLAB (active/powered) penta's which came in MK's 1,2 & 3.
