Help with Beolab 1

14 replies
Does anybody know where exactly these 2 parts belong on the Beolab 1?




Unfortunately they approached me spontaneously while removing the amplifier module.
I didn't see them in the Beolab 1 service manual and I don't want to take apart the second Beolab 1 just to have a look.

I took a photo of these a couple of weeks ago when mine flew off too. I put it back on a took a photo of which way around it was but exact location may be slightly further to the end

As an update- I had a quote to repair of A$1200 each amp plus shipping so it’s probably beyond a price where it’s worth it so I’m attempting to really find the faulty components .
had a look with a thermal camera but nothing overly hot - maybe because the bass aren’t working so that part of the circuit associated with them aren’t showing their faults . Wondering if there’s an inbuilt protection mode that shuts down just the bass etc ???

there’s so many capacitors in the amp - electrolytic , ceramic and blue poly ones . Wondering if I should start by ordering and replacing the electrolytic ones and see if that does anything but to be honest - they don’t show any signs of age as I was hoping I’d simply see .
It’s really hard as there just isn’t much info out there and haven’t found any B and O elec diagrams or heard from anybody that can say where most probable place is to look .

At the moment these speakers are just a rather chunky pair of coat hangers !
