BL 8000 welk jaar is serienummer 97xx?

14 replies

Ik heb een set Beolab 8000, waarbij op het stickertje van de ene box de volgende gegevens staan:

BEOLAB:  BLAB8000

Type: NO 6801

Serial No:  9733264

Nu probeer ik te vinden uit welk jaar ze stammen, maar een nummer beginnend met 97.. kan ik nergens terugvinden. Iemand een idee?

Dank, PP  

Hallo PP,

In deze thread is het te vinden: /forum/general-discussion-and-questions/beolab-8000-serial-number#post-2059460 '93 dus.

Andere serial number threads gaan vooral over de mk2 'bass update' en vanaf wanneer het dempingsmateriaal is verbeterd.

Vooral dat laatste is belangrijk - het schuim dat B&O eerst verwerkte vergaat en tast de printplaten aan. Als je nog lang wilt genieten van deze fijne speakers zou ik dat (laten) checken en/of vervangen.

Groet!

Hallo Johan,

Dank voor de verwijzing. Ik had inderdaad een dergelijke lijst gezien, maar de verwarring kwam doordat er bij mij geen nul voor de negen staat. Dat is blijkbaar niet nodig, zoals in de lijst wel staat. 

Ik zal eens kijken naar het dempingsmateriaal, dank voor de waarschuwing!

Vr. groet, 

Paul

There is no serial number beginning with 9.

Recent years begin with 2 - a 9 would indicate a veeeery future version :-)))

Must be a 0 there too.....which would mean a 1996 version.

A 1 would mean around 2006 and they have no ‘foam problems’.

HI PP and MM,

What I always understood is that (next to the bass update) there also has been a moment in time when B&O changed the drivers. The older versions have the drivers with a little dust cap, the newer ones with larger hollow surfaces. My 8000s have the latler, hollow ones and serial number 13XXXXXX, so around '98.

I found some images on the web showing the difference. Maybe it helps to determine the age of these speakers.

Regards,

Johan

Thanks for the answers. I couldn't find anything about the serial number which I found on the speakers. I will try to link to a picture, but I'm not sure if it will work:

Hi,

I would say (as your serial numbers have 7 digits, and mine, starting with 13, have eight) that they are the "09****** - 1992/1993" ones. The labels just do not carry the 0. Can you tell what kind of drivers are in the speakers?

We will persist!
