My "new" Beogram 1800 (5213)

24 replies

Hi, 

I was looking for Beogram to my Beolab 5000 & Beomaster 5000, 

- almost the same old

- almost the same colour

- almost the same or better condition

- cheaper than Beogram 3000 (Thorens)

 

... and I found and falling in love with Beogram 1800 (5213). Today I drove 250 km and I bought it !!!

 

 

This is a photo from the previous owner, but now it's mine in my car 🤩

 

I started wooden work with my Beolab and I saw this hole :

and I almost "fixed it" 👍 

Absolutely beautiful, a wonderful piece. Congratulations on the find!

Go on - what is the hole for? !

Adjustment for setdown point.

No, I'm smarter than I thought :)

For me it looks too regular and maybe it is for something.... 

I checked it and it is a very special hole... but if I tell you.. I must kill you.

 

Ok. because you think that I dont know, I can tell, it's for tonearm regulations.

Yes, I know. I read it:

/forum/imported-unmapped/beogram-1800-68-72

 

Very good - had a skim through the service manual but clearly wasn't careful enough when reading - good looking deck and one that is rarely mentioned - I know Tim Jarman likes it!

Thanks Peter, Your opinion means a lot to me.

Tim ?? Beocentral man ??

 

Next week if I finish wooden works with Beolab and Beomaster I will try to open it and check motor and all mechanism.
