Beogram 8000 - massive hum
in BeoGram · Feb 23, 2024 19:50OK this works, no more hum. I also tried it on a beomaster 6500 (from the 90's). This also works without a hum. Sadly the datalink doesn't seem to work, when I use the remote to stop / start the beogram it doesn't do any…
Beogram 8000 - massive hum
in BeoGram · Feb 22, 2024 23:05Thanks. I think I've found the correct cable. It is labeled PH (phomo) I think. One end has 7 pins and the other end has 5 pins and 2 screws. Should I remove the screws or leave them be? I'm not sure this is the sane cab…
Beogram 8000 - massive hum
in BeoGram · Feb 22, 2024 19:32Hi Martin, OK that might be the problem. But how do I identify the correct cable? I have a large container with din cables. Is there a difference between regular and datalunk cables? Do they have more pins? Thanks! Bert

in BeoGram · Feb 22, 2024 02:30Hi all, I reinstated my beo 8000 system as I procured the desk for it. Looks very nice. Sadly my beogram 8000 has a massive hum. It sounds fine, just a big hum. I connected through din with the beomaster 8000. I tried se…

Beomaster 4400 - Sudden drop in sound?
in BeoMaster · Nov 7, 2022 08:20For the record, what actually happened. I serviced this machine some time ago. All small value capacitors were changed into film. Last week I found that I missed 2 caps hidden below a cable truss. These were 4.7uF (C13) …
Beomaster 4400 - Sudden drop in sound?
in BeoMaster · Nov 7, 2022 07:57Aggressive? Did I say that? I perceive that message as directive and pedantive towards me. I do not know this person nor do I perceive such messages as 'learning' but rather as pushing down on me. Nobody will learn anyth…

in BeoMaster · Nov 6, 2022 15:37Yes you are basically shouting at me in the manner you write. I appreciate your help but please try to explain why you need someone to do 'something'. I readily will tell when I make mistakes because that is part of the …
Beomaster 4400 - Sudden drop in sound?
in BeoMaster · Nov 6, 2022 15:32I believe I found the culprit but need to check this further. C14 at 2.2uF was changed into a film capacitor. I replaced this on a hunch to a polarised electrolytic. It appears the audio is back now. But let it play for …
