Peter's Beolink 7000 ........Great fun!

55 replies

Most of you will know that after winning the white 7000 system in the last prize draw, Peter kindly lent his Beolink 7000 to me.
What a lovely piece of kit this is. I've been setting the programing to work my lights and radio.
When I come downstairs in the morning, the radio is playing Radio Lancashire then at six minutes past nine (after the local news) it switches over to Classic FM for the rest of the day.
Struggling a bit with the lights though. It wants to switch all my lights on in the evening whereas I just want light picture 1 (a corner light)
Beautiful, easy program menu! It just 'asks' you what you want.
It even displays "SAT" when I'm watching Sky on my Avant which is obviously one way!
Having had the loan of this for just over a week, I have decided that soon I will get one of my own though perhaps with RDS.
Thankyou kindly Peter, you are a true gentleman🤒 
I will be coming up to Gateshead in the next month or two on a family tree tracing expedition but if that's too long to keep the remote, just give me a shout.

You may regard it as a long term loan till you find a decent one of your own. I am using a projector clock at present instead of the 7000 - my wife prefers it as she can see it too! Projects onto the ceiling!

Thanks Peter😁
Just a quick question. Am I right in thinking that all the timer plays I've set are stored in my Beomaster 7000 and not in the Beolink?
If so, and I were to give it back to you today, would I be able to disable them with a Beo4 or Beolink 1000? Also, is there a limit to how many timed events I can store?
Sorry, that's two questionsErm

Andy T.

Andy as far as I know the timer plays are stored in your Beomaster. Now I think I am correct in say if you set them with a BL7000 then you will need a BL7000 to change them. Chris(Medogsfat) had this problem with his Beomaster 7000. Previously someone had a set the timer with a BL7000 it was not until he got a BL7000 that he was able to change it.

Interesting Craig.
I'll have a good study of my manual and see if I can experiment with ideas to remove them.
Might be handy for other Beoworlders with BM7000 problems.

Hi Andy,

Three weeks ago I purchased a Beolink 7000, now it is connected to a BeoVision MX5500 (as video master & also two way). So, I can confirm the time is determined by the master (in our case video), not the Beolink 7000 (unfortunately...).

But - programming through a BeoLink 7000 is definitely a fun !

Cheers, Tibor

Hi Tibor. I bet you are like a child with a new toy!
It's a pleasure using it isn't it. I must get one soon, did you get a bargain and which charger did you get?
Hope you and Edina are both well.

Hi Andy,

Yes, we have to remain always as kids with new toys :-)

Three weeks ago I had a business trip to North Germany - so, before it I tried to bid on the German eBay accordingly and - I won :-) !

We could collect this BeoLink 7000 personally in Schleswig-Holstein. It was sold with the desktop charger.

The last BeoLink 7000 RDS was sold through eBay in Gernany for 349.00 EUR - which is I think a quite reasonable price.

Now a BeoLink 7000 floorstand is offered on German eBay for 369.00 EUR (as the minimum bid), but I guess it is too expensive - especially since I would take such floorstand.

As I could follow up, the price is mainly determined by the delivery - where to the seller is ready to deliver or just personal pick up is possible...

In the meanwhile I found locally a BeoVision MX5500 - for coins... So with the BeoLink 7000 it is a great fun :-)

Kind regards,

Tibor & Edina

Hi Peter,

I bought this Beolink 7000 on Ebay, to use with a BeoSystem 6500:

Not really as I need a new battery myself!! I'll try to find out though. As far as I am aware, one can actually make up a battery pack oneself but I will report back!
