Thanks for everyone's assistance with my problem with my left speaker. Oddly, this resolved itself a couple of days later. However, I'm now having a problem with the right one.

When I'm listening to music, the sound will suddenly cut out on the right speaker, meaning I'm listening to one stereo channel only. With a CD, the sound loss remains until I stop the disc and restart it, whereas with vinyl the sound loss is only momentary and resolves itself within a couple of seconds. In both cases, the speaker's green light remains on throughout.

Does anybody have any idea what is going on? Is this simply a problem with loose connections (particularly for the digital link from the BS9000) or is there something more fundamental happening?

To me it sounds as your speakers have a problem. I reckon the signal from your vinyl is fed to your speakers via its analogue input (powerlink or Line in - or does the Beosound 9000 convert the analogue signal from your vinyl to digital when using SPDIF out?!?). The CD, as you say, is fed to your speakers via digital input. Chances are not high for having problems with loose connections with both the analogue and digital cables (assuming that the signal from your vinyl is fed to your speakers via Powerlink or Line in).

I have connected my mac mini to my BL 5's digital input via a Stello U3 DDC transport and my Flatscreen to the analogue input (Line in). My speakers behave like yours when i feed them a digital signal with a sample rate above 88.2khz. I have never had any issue with the analoge input.

Best regards
