Beogram 7000 PLAY problem
in BeoGram · Jan 25, 2026 11:41If the display is flashing, it means the record is repeated from one time to seven times. If this happens when you only press play once, it’s usually because of a corroded switch.
Beomaster 6500 & 7000 improvement of pre-amp circuit
in BeoMaster · Jan 11, 2026 21:24The grey resistors on the top of the picture are the ones to measure across. Take the outer left leg of the one to the furthest left and measure across the right leg of the resistor next to it. You will see two square tr…
Beolab Penta MK3
in Nordic · Feb 19, 2025 14:00There was a thread in the old forum about how to eliminate this: There were two situations where you could get this type of problem as I recall and they were:- Using a Beosound like Ouverture or BS9000 as a master, the a…
Beogram 6500 performing erratic
in BeoGram · Feb 17, 2025 15:17It probably resembles the issue I had with my BG7000, and Martin (Dillen) answered that I should clean the switch near the top left of the deck - it's marked S1. This helped.
Beocord 7000 standby light turns off after a while
in BeoCord · Feb 10, 2025 22:17My Beocord 7000 has developed a strange fault. After some time in standby - perhaps 24 hours or more, it will sometimes turn off the standby indicator. However, the unit works as it should otherwise. Is this a known faul…
Beogram 1800 not setting down at correct point on record
in BeoGram · Feb 10, 2025 10:57Yes, there is. However, it depends what kind of Beogram 1800 you have. If it is the one from the early 70s, you can look at this post: /forum/imported-unmapped/beogram-1800-68-72#post-2263299 If it is a Beogram 1800 from…
Beomaster 4400 fm signal showing but no sound?
in BeoMaster · Feb 2, 2025 21:59Have you pressed the buttons for Speakers down on the front (there are two separate buttons)? Also, the balance pot may need a cleaning.
Beogram 7000 PLAY problem
in BeoGram · Feb 1, 2025 22:25Indeed the problem was that I had soldered pin 6 instead of pin 7. Now it works. Time will tell when I revisit that front PLAY button issue. I think the board needs to be positioned very accurately for the pin to hit the…
Beogram 7000 PLAY problem
in BeoGram · Jan 28, 2025 22:42It was a DIN wire that had broken off. Does anyone have a diagram for wires? I have sound in right and left channel now but datalink doesn't work, so I presume I have soldered the datalink wire (yellow) to the wrong pin.

Beogram 7000 PLAY problem
in BeoGram · Jan 28, 2025 18:18Yes, I have all 7 pins. The switch under the front panel PLAY button was very corroded. I cleaned it but it is falling apart, and I can't seem to position it correctly for it to work when I press the PLAY front. After fi…
Beogram 7000 PLAY problem
in BeoGram · Jan 27, 2025 20:41I spoke too soon. It fixed the issue when pressing the top PLAY button, however, when pressing the front PLAY button, it sometimes only spins the record and moves the arm to the beginning of the record. It also doesn't t…

in BeoGram · Jan 27, 2025 13:41Amazing. I cleaned S1 and S2 with a fibre brush pen, and now it works as it should again. Thanks, Martin!
Beogram 7000 PLAY problem
in BeoGram · Jan 25, 2025 13:33I have a Beogram 7000 record player that has developed a strange problem. When I press PLAY, the arm travels to the start of the record, and the 33 RPM light is on and the platter spinning. However, it then stops the pla…
Speech Intelligibility issue with AppleTV and surround settings 5.1 and 7.1
in BeoVision · Jan 23, 2025 22:19Perhaps the Beolab 14 speakers are not very good for centre speakers. Regarding the Apple TV - why not set the sound to AUTO? This avoids the Apple TV converting all signals to Dolby 5.1 and will give you an uncompressed…
Beogram 4004 short circuit?
in BeoGram · Jan 22, 2025 13:46First things to check would be the belt for the carriage. And the pulley will most likely be cracked as they all are by this time. Get a new one in metal - some people here sell them.
Beocenter 7007 - adjust amp voltage trimmer resistors

What are you working on now?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 9, 2025 23:38Since I finally got around to solve the issue with my Beomaster 7000 not turning on the amplifier section (TR19 was defective), I thought I would continue a little TLC for my Beogram CD7000. I carried out the mechanical …
