Beolab 4000 - one speaker pops at power-off
in BeoLab · Aug 15, 2026 12:31Hi. I have a pair of Beolab 4000s, Mk I with the power switch on the front. The speakers work and play very nicely, but one of the two gives a somewhat disturbing loudish high pop/click when it turns from on to standby. …

Beocord 1500 De Luxe user manual request / recording question
in BeoCord · Jul 11, 2026 12:27I bought one of these decks around 2006. I sent email to B&O support and they actually posted me a paper-photocopy with a hand-signed cover sheet, good times (I wonder if they would even bother to reply about something t…
Beolink 5000 batteries
in BeoRemote · Jun 30, 2026 14:51The diagram is on the cover, but there should also be - + - on the remote's frame (perhaps it is not on all versions): The battery holder of the BL5000 is very brittle and if even slightly damaged will not make good cont…
New to this - Beovision 7802
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 26, 2026 22:26On another look, there's actually another service manual, which includes the 7802: https://elektrotanya.com/bang_olufsen_beovision_5502_7802_8802_8902_9002.pdf/download.html if the PCBs match, the suspect cap C2 (which i…
New to this - Beovision 7802
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 26, 2026 20:03I quite like the orange highlight color they used on the button labels on these models! There is a service manual of the related 7700-8800 series: https://elektrotanya.com/beovision_7700-8800.pdf/download.html If you loo…
Beomaster 5000 output stage overheating plus left channel is quiet
in BeoMaster · Jun 25, 2026 15:33Hi. Nothing wrong with your post, just a quieter time at the forums. The issue sounds very likely to be the no-load (idle) current. Those open-case pots might as well be bad, but supposing they still work, I read the ser…
Strange B&O Contraption - VCR tester ?
in Other · May 23, 2026 11:26Would be nice to have a look inside? Looks pretty DIY, but it probably had some very specific use-case (like Madskp described) in mind and probably did that very well. Disregarding the original function, the IR-receiver …

in BeoLink · Mar 24, 2026 22:11Thank you for scanning, MCL stuff is always appreciated! I was looking at your other manuals and I hadn't seen this use case mentioned before: in the MCL2 System manual: I find the idea of a teenager having an MCL link s…
B&O 1983-1984 catalog scanned and cover-recreation for a poster
in BeoPeople · Feb 23, 2026 22:12Regarding the cover of the 83/84 catalog, I found out that it was actually just one part of a larger set of three prints called 'Nature Morte' by Poul Ib Henriksen: (Screenshots here for posterity, taken from: https://ww…
What are you working on now?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 12, 2026 16:28I finally had the time and all the pieces in one place to test my Beolab 5000 (restored by Frede in 2012) + BM5000 + BV3000s + BV 2500 Cubes + Stereo Width box (+a single CX50 as a center speaker for testing). I've bough…
Thumbs up for Danish sound parts (for MCP hinges and Beolink parts)
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 7, 2026 15:47Just to give a shout out to Danish sound parts once again; I only recently learnt that they also make reproduction Master Control Panel hinges and I love those! I have three MCPs and all of those had broken hinges which …
Beomaster 4500 two-way ROMs
in BeoMaster · Jan 12, 2026 21:39Click on SHOW ALL at end, and you'll get the file listing and the two .BIN files are there. The way archive.org works is a bit convoluted!
B&O 1983-1984 catalog scanned and cover-recreation for a poster
in BeoPeople · Jan 9, 2026 16:06Ha, I was going through a box of B&O parts I have, and found out that I already had the catalog I was looking for, oops 😁 Here's the finnish cover with some light retouching, for those interested. Also from another cata…

Making AUX input work on Beocenter 9300
in BeoCenter · Dec 1, 2025 16:51Only a B&O-product would talk Beolink, and make the BC to start from an input, it won't start by an incoming audio signal only. Do the other input or the standby touch-button work? Can you test it in TAPE2? The glass pan…
B&O 1983-1984 catalog scanned and cover-recreation for a poster
in BeoPeople · Nov 29, 2025 21:43I was perhaps exaggerating talking about posters, I meant just something printable in about A4 size, which would look neat in a simple frame (like the one I did). Just a high-res scan in something reasonable resolution w…
