restoring an old beogram 1203

8 replies

hello,

i am restoring an old beogram 1203, and i was wondering if anyone has any tips, i think the motor is where i will need to focus the attention, i.e. opening it up and ultrasonicly cleaning the ballbarings then reassembling it..

 

has anyone done this before?

 

i collect b&o units, and so far i have a beomaster 2400 and commander etc speakers and a beomaster 901 and tape deck as well as my 1203 beogram (i think ill post another time about collecting :D ) i LOVE beoworld, so great to have it here!! :D

 

 

cheers

You apparently know the old saying "...but teach a man to fish and he will sit all day in a boat drinking beer" 🙂
