not a problem guys. I understand that no reply means no one else has seen the problem. Best of all - i can now listen tot he stereo again without the fear of a monster repair bill.

i fixed it myself! after more testing, it became clear that the cable feeding audio to the "good" speaker was actually the faulty cable. By replacing it, i now have a fully working system again. who would have thought the working side would be causing the problem and not the cable that connected to the duff side? adam

My Beocenter has started having a really weird problem - sometimes i can only get sound from one of the speakers (Beolab4000's). I say no sound..there is some audio but its so quiet you need to put your ear against the speaker to hear anything, whilst the other channel is working normally. Some days the system works perfectly, some days it doesn't
