You guys are crazy.....😂

Well at least the 7000 system has a very good chance of working.  I have an incurable affliction of buying old Beocord 5000s from the 70s knowing the chances of me ever getting them to work is nil.  Even wise words from Martin hasn't seemed to help stop this sad behaviour.

Yes - that is a forlorn hope! I have had three of these and even the one that Tim actually machined some parts for turned on me and shredded a good tape! Very nice when they work, but...

I know Peter, but they look so beautiful in conjunction with a BG 400X and a BM 4400 and they are B&O through and through.

I can't help myself either ...
