Anyone know where I can get the peanut lamp (5V 60mA) used in the < > photocell control module in the keyboard.  Its B&O part number is 8230069.

Thanks

But it's not in the keyboard, it's in the sensor arm.
The lamp inside the keyboard is also found in the webshop.

Polishing acryllic can be an hours-long process, depending on the itinial condition and what tools etc. you have.
Novus #2 is usually a good starting point.

Patience could also be the solution. You never know when new dustcovers become available...

Here the text from this thread  /forum/beogram/beogram-1000-mexico Of what I did.

While I had all the sanding utensils out and ready, I started on the ugly acrylic cover, I placed it on a sturdy cardboard box that nearly fit into the cover Bad idea as I sanded with 30 micron the cardboard damaged the inside of the cover, I had to cover the box with a cotton rag, and later sand the inside with 15 micron and so on), I then wet sanded with a 30 micron sheet, parallel to the long side until the deep scratches was gone, the most difficult was the damage you can see in the first pics. I then went to 15 micron sanding parallel to the short side until all the grains from the 30 micron was gone, then down to 9 micron, long side, until all then grain from 15 micron was gone, then down to 3 micron, short side, I now had like a haze on the acrylic, not quite clear, I then took to Novus No. 2 scratch remover, and that did it. With 25°C in the garage this was a boot camp, 2 hours hard work, sweating like after a 5 Km run. I have some more covers where I tried with Novus No. 3 and 2 and 1, It didnt turn out as well as this one.

You simply need a Moving Magnet Phono Preamp even though your cartridge is a moving iron type. I can recommend the Schiit Mani as a great value. There are also ones from Parasound, Pro-Ject, and Rega to name other quality units.

I have a Beogram 8002 with a Soundsmith SMMC1 cartridge and the MMP3 phono preamp and it sounds absolutely wonderful.  I've read that the Soundsmith preamps are designed for their cartridges.  There are a lot of opinions regarding vinyl that it is nowhere as near as good as the digital version, but that is not my experience at all.  I guess a lot of it would depend on the quality of the record, cartridge, and preamp.  I could listen to vinyl all day and never tire of the sound, but it some work prepping the album for play.

I think the choice of phone preamp depends on how much enjoyment you want to get from your vinyl, and how revealing your system is to be able to hear small differences. As Mark-sf says, pretty much any moving magnet phono preamp should be able to do the job, and there are budget phono preamps that are very good.  I've had several budget preamps (not the ones listed above) but I don't remember saying "oh wow!" when I listened to albums with them.  The Soundsmith MMP4 is about $800 US, that's quite an investment, but if you are after the best sound, have a good system, and think you may someday upgrade to one of the other Soundsmith cartridges, that could be a serious contender.

Good luck in your quest!

Thanks for the replies guys.

In my experience, the best phono stage for a Beogram 8002 is the one built into a Beomaster 8000!
