Beogram 1700 cueing issue

4 replies

Received this yesterday. Plays beautifully. Particularly good midrange and treble. Is bass light which I like as am not a bass fan. To be fair it is running through speakers which are bass light and really need a subwoofer. Will test it with better speakers soon. 

It has one small issue. The automatic cueing is a fraction off and the needle lowers on the edge of the record and sometimes slips off. Not a major issue for me as I just keep my finger in place to nudge it correctly, However, as this is meant for my children I would prefer it to be perfect as they will be more careless. Is there any easy fix?

 

The weight hadnt been properly set - corrected that and now cues perfectly. 

 

Very considerate of you to post the solution. Thank you. 🙂

cheers - well I always think someone else may have the same problem at some point. Great when it is an easy fix. I should add that I have received really helpful advice with any problems so am always happy to help out, if I can.
