Hi,
i’have bought a pair of Beolab 5 and for one for one of them I can’t complete the calibration. I starts, but then it stops and the led starts to flash green.
Any ideas what do?
Cheers,

Beolab 5 - Adaptive Bass Calibration can’t complete
11 replies
No ideas?
1. Try a long press of the calibration button to reset.
2. When I had BL5s, they could only accommodate 10 calibrations before they locked up and needed a Service Engineer to clear the memory. I don’t know if this was Mk1, only or mk2?
Flashes green only? Looks like it didn't store the calibration parameters.
Could be a fault in a memory chip in the chassi.
Anyone knows if the IC304 is the responsible for storing calibration data?
Thanks for your replies ?
How can I identify if the memory chip is broken? Is it possible to replace?
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Hi again,
the investigation continues. I have tried to long press, nothing.
I did try to calibrate once more:
- The led starts to flash green
- The mic comes out
- Then nothing, no sound
- The mic goes back
- The led starts to flash red
Try to play the BL5. Does the lower woofer at the bottom vibrate while playing music?

Quite a challenge to achieve "Less is More" while having the Beovirus.
Yes, all elements seem to work
