in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 19, 2025 13:05From what I own(ed); BS9000, Shape, Beogram 4002. Special mention for Beosound 5 Encore: the operation was so nice that I never used a remote with it. But thhe internals where badly designed and therefore never had a sof…
To retip or not to retip MMC6000
in Cartridge · Mar 22, 2025 18:12Did you check with a microscope then? These 6000 stylii go deeper into the grooves and pick up more dirt and dust, and with a sferical stylus you might hear nothing. Better buy a usb microscope first and check it first.

Beosound Ouverture no power and dead.
in BeoSound · Mar 1, 2025 03:36There are I believe 3 fuses, but they don’t look like fuses. more like capacitors, they are soldered on. Maybe check out a service manual or check the printed text on the pcb’s

Theatre issues
in Theatre · Jan 27, 2025 09:49Listen to the Severed Hand and replace the lan cable between Theatre and TV. B&O seem to buy their Lan cables at Temu and/or Shein. Utter crap. Aliexpress has even better cables. All the comms between BR1 and tv go thru …

Beosound Stage now garbage
in BeoSound · Jan 13, 2025 17:58I know the ethernet cable provided with the Theatre is garbage, but I don’t know with the Stage. Swap out your cables first, after that you can complain about B&O’s Stage firmware. your Beoremote’s commands travel throug…
