Beocord 9000: Help needed!

4 replies

All,

I have bought a Beocord 9000 on Ebay (allegedly in mint condition) that unfortunately needs a lot of calibration and re-adjustment for the playback and recording levels.

I am looking for a B&O original load level measuring tape # 6780035.  Does anybody have it? I understand that it is too valuable to sell but perhaps someone could lend it to me for a short period of time?

Thanks for your feedback

Dimitri

Hi,

Of course, I'd be interested too, although mine seemed correctly aligned. And the azimuth tape would be another interesting bonus !

Tell me Dimitri, what sort of noise does you motor make?

Jacques, I am not an expert myself. I have the Beocord now being serviced by a technician and he told me that he needs this adjustment tape to re-adjust the playback and recording levels as they seem to be completely disbalanced. Apparently the previous owner of the Beocord or whoever else who had serviced it before changed the levels pre-set at the factory.

So let us know what you think when you get it back!

Mine sounds fantastic!

Jacques
