9500 v/u meter

[pepps]

Just admiring my latest purchase, the Beocenter 9500, and got to thinking it was a shame the engineers didn’t build in a VU meter similar to that on the Beocord 6500.

I think there’s space to fit one in above the cassette deck. And it could be multi-functional to switch between VU meter and volume level.

And if the multi-function element was too tricky I also think the style from the Beocord 3500/4500 would look cool too.

When I sit in the evenings the lighting of the BC9500 is sooooo cool! It’s like an enormous control panel akin to something from Star Trek 😎

…..I’m now on the lookout for a suitable Beogram without a built-in RIAA 🙄

Again I’m replying to myself!

I just set the cassette to record pause and BY JINGO there IS a level meter!!!!!
Why did they disable it during playback?

If anyone from Beoworld can share a secret button press combo to activate the level meter during playback I’ll post them a Twix!
