Beomaster 900 radio?

I recently got this mystery item. 10 points if you can guess what's inside the cloth cover.

 

 

It is so obvious  😁

Beo610

It's shape can not be mixed up with other B&O's 😕

Yes it is a Beo / Beo610 / TR26. I'm not sure what the correct name actually is, I think it depends on location. I've got a user manual which calls it a TR26 and brochures that call it the other names. Anyway, I'd never seen a cloth cover with a B&o radio so had to have it.

The cotton "night dress" was an optional extra to cover things when not in use.
It was also made with printing for speaker cabinets etc.

The lengendary Anthony Garza in TX, USA made a few T-shirts :

OK, I have to commit: I've cheated 🙂

I got my second Beo610 last year also with this nice cloth. Actually it was the only reason I bought it ...

Could you maybe scan this brochures or user manual saying TR26 and show us here, please?

Many thanks in advance!

I sow once this other version of the cloth cover for "Hojttalerkabinet". I think it was a pair of Type L Speakers in Lauritz.

But how is this legendary Anthony Garza? Is it

My scanner is being a pain but here's a couple of pictures of a brochure and the user manual.

Anthony Garza is (or was?) an incredibly skilled electronics guy with a particular weak spot for B&O.
Based in Texas, USA and running the Beomuse website he was THE go to guy for owners of more exotic things like the older B&O.
He takes the credit for the thoughts and (often complicated) diagnostics behind many of the repair solutions we take more or
less for granted today, like the C2103 laser supply filter cap issues, the CDX rivet vias etc.
He made a casting mold for the Beovox Redline ABR rubber parts and I believe he was the first to rebuild MMC cartridges.

I exchanged experience, knowledge, serviceinfo and parts with Anthony on an almost daily basis for a couple of years, but
then he suddenly disappeared from the scene, leaving behind only a couple of cryptical messages.
I don't know if he is still around. Hopefully he is fine and hopefully we will see him back some day.

Comment found on the audiokarma website archive:

"The gentleman in Texas selling them was Anthony Garza, of the sadly-defunct BeoMuse repair shop in Lubbock. He shut down his website years ago, and my attempts to email him haven't been responded to. However, there is still a gentleman in Denmark named Martin, who makes metal reproductions, and also sells capacitor kits for Beogram 8000/8002s. He can be found on the BeoWorld forum (http://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/) under the user name "Dillen". Shipping may be a tad expensive, but his parts are highly regarded."

O, I see....

Interesting story. Was he aslo the Beoworld member?

I hope too, he is still around.

 

Beaker, where on earth do you find these rare things? 

Looks lovely though! Does it work? Even better to find it with the manuals and catalogues as well!
