Beo 6000 System

You mean your B&O speakers have the only worldwide industrial standard connector for home audio speakers and
your amplifier has something proprietary or otherwise non-standard.

Standard DIN speakercables with one end cut down to bare wires would be what you need.

 

Is it easy for you to replace the foam surrounds? Let me see - how can we answer that...

If you know what you are doing, if you find decent quality foam rings with a good fit and some proper
speakercement, get the shim'ing right and last but not least if you have practice and experience from something else (read: something
cheaper and easier to replace in case something goes wrong)
- then yes.

If not
- then no.

It would be difficult to find original replacement woofers.

This is the worst one of the two....

And regarding the DIN standard connectors, yes, it seems my Technics does not have the DIN standard fittings. As you say, I can use bare cable at one end.

The cable supplied seems very thin for such an expensive Hi-Fi though.

You can use thicker cable if you want but the B&O cable is good quality and I bet you will not tell the difference in an ABX blind test.

Thanks Peter.

I'll give the current cables a try this weekend and let you know how they sound.

Regarding the damage to the foam surrounds on the woofers - will that affect the sound quality at all, or is it purely cosmetic?

 

 

Being new to this forum, I didn't realise that my first post is at the top of every page.

I thought I had re-posted it by accident, so I deleted the original text and put a . in there instead. I now realise I have deleted my original post.

Is there any way of getting it back please?

Here you are:

My mates Dad has the following, that he's had since the early 80's.

Beomaster 6000

Beochord 6000

Beogram 6002

Beovox M150

It had to be heard to be believed, and it created awesome sound.  When the volume was turned up, the windows would shake!

 

Firstly, is there anywhere in the U.K. that can repair them?

Also, how much are the Beovox M150 Speakers worth second hand?

They are in very good condition.

 

TIA

I perhaps should have explained:  You simply search for 'Beo 6000 System beoworld' and ask google to show you the cached results, as shown here;
