Looks like you're right - what a beautiful machine!

Electronics Technician in Jerusalem Israel. B&O fan for over 50 years.

I agree, one of the nicest radio produced by B&O. It had simply no luck being produced in the same year as the famous BM900 came to the mark.

But nevertheless the one of the "must-haves" for every B&O collector.

My exemplar (thanks Leslie) is in everyday usage and even my wife loves it :-)

 

"the_o_master" is right. Had these units already a year ago but now is the time to put my hands on soon! Let's see if I can make them in the same shape as the one I sold to "the_o_master".

Yes Leslie, it was a good work.

But you have promised also to get a a main power unit for me. I didn't get an offer from you jet ;-)

Oops, so many mails and I forget things as I'm getting older๐Ÿ˜‚

Send me a pm (again)!

Very excited to see the cubes get the Leslie touch.

I'm getting the itch for another cube project - but I must hold off!  Must.... finish.... other... projects. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

I'm an automotive audio and acoustic engineer. I design loudspeakers and full sound systems for new automobiles. I also dabble with studio, consumer and pro audio projects from time to time.

Very happy with the keypad on my latest Beogram - I like to think the switches were originally this sensitive, as there is some original B&O blurb that talks about the sensitivity of these keys being 0.5mm, don't suppose anyone actually remembers do they?

Working on a naughty Niles SI-275 amp. The last, and I mean last, piece of equipment I expected to be poking around inside of!

I believe this is where I say: 

"Pictures, or it didn't happen."

Is that the series you can daisy chain amp after amp after amp?

I have pictures but cant post them - switching ISPs and currently don't have internet at home. All of this is coming to you from my cell.

Yes, this can be daisy chained but after a few amps or so you will need a distribution amplifier. The signal inputs and outputs are just paralleled with some resistors in between.

I highly recommend the amp. It's an extremely well designed amp. Having it opened up revealed a double wound toroid and independant left and right power supplies. I measured DC offset earlier and the left was 9mV and the right 10mV. Just brilliant.

I just wish I could figure out the problem!! The thing measures like it's brand new and I can't find a single fault! Baffling.
