Beomaster 5000 - Type 2007 ???

4 replies

Hi all,

Managed to get a Beomaster 5000 set up at long last and was looking at some of the reference sites and have a question.

The sites say the earlier Type for a BM5000 is 2005 but mine is a Type 2007 Serie 1 (so an earlish one I'm guessing).

Is the Type 2005 a typo that everyone has copied or is the Type 2007 uncommon?

Well, the one thing I can say is that Type 2005 is not a typo because it is listed on the cover of the old B&O Service Manual as well as on the Beoworld site.

I have not found any actual references to Type 2007, but the US version had Type 2012 & 2013

Having said that I did find one reference which apparently showed Type number range 20XX but I think it is unlikely to be correct because we know for certain there were only a few different "Type #" types

This is strange.

Could you please take a photo of the label?

I am very interested to see this and compare with the known (so far) Type's

Hi Frede,

I've also sent you an email about getting this sorted properly but here is the picture of the label.

Cheers
