I hope Martin sticks around, he's an absolute asset to the vintage B&O community. He's helped me out on numerous occasions.

I think Leslie has got it right... he's probably just having a break... fingers crossed. 

Hej Martin,

Jeg er ny i forum, og denne måde at kontakte dig på var den eneste jeg umiddelbart kunne finde.

Jeg kan se, at du er den absolutte kapacitet på B&O, og derfor dette spørgsmål: Jeg er i gang med at reparere på et Beocenter 1600 hvis venstre kanals udgangstrin har været udsat for overophedning. Det eneste man hører fra den er brum. Højre kanal fungerer. Alle svedne komponenter er nu udskiftet men udgangstransistorerne eller IC´erne, jeg er ikke helt klar over hvad det er for nogle, kan jeg ikke finde nogensteder. De er påtrykt et "M" det ligner Motorola, og betegnelsen TE1088 og TE1089. De har været skiftet før sikkert grundet det potmeter (kaput) der regulerer arbejdspunktet. Jeg har kontakt med en amerikaner der beder om et JEDEC nummer. Men hvis du har adgang til komponenterne, er det jo lettest at købe dem i DK.

Vh.

Hi all 

I just purchased (today!) a Beogram 4002 5513. For the $150 I paid I think it's in great shape but I would love to:

1) replace the drive belt

2) know what things to look out for. Should I run through a standard lubrication/upkeep?

3) the tonearm is set to 1gram, which is correct for the MMC4000, but I've read a few places on this site saying it may need to be a bit higher

4) I am getting some distortion; it's not 100% but it's annoying - seems at the high end. It played fine when I demoed it today, and during the day at home. I have noticed the platter isn't 100% level with the back of the metal base, so I have a feeling I may need to level it

5) eventually I would like to fully refurb and clean this thing up. I'm posting in this forum as I read I should reach out to Dillen for ordering everything I need. May I ask if anyone can help me get in touch?

Thanks!

Hi Dillen,

I am looking for tape belts for a beocenter 9300 - do you still do this. Can't find PM on the site - probably just need to hunt around some more

Any chance ?

cheers
