Hi Mark - been involved with other projects for a while (Major restoration of a 65ft turntable !) I've finally finished re-capping my 1900-2 amp, which is now working. However, when playing an LP on my BG-6000 it is 'ski…

Hi Spassmaker - it's not shown in the photos, but the terminals of the reservoir capacitors have been masked with 'black-tack' which will keep them well insulated. Thanks for your concern. They are also held in place by …

Here are some pictures ! TR22 was u/s, so changed it out while replacing the Tantalum capacitors. I also switched out the supply filter capacitors (old electrolytic) - for 2 separate new electrolytics (The 4000uF was rep…

Work is progressing slowly ! The power supply electrolytics have been replaced, but still awaiting delivery of electrolytics to replace all the Tantalum capacitors on the PCB's, before I proceed any further. I may take t…

Hi Mark, I can cue forward (< or <<), but not return (> or >>). If I press STOP, it does stop - but does not return. When it reaches the centre of the TT, it stops, but again refuses to return. At least on this the elect…

OK Mark - checked it and it's lit. However I now have a different problem, with motor control.... It does everything except return or Stop ! I suppose the next thing is to remove the main board, and check the Darlington …

I've finally given up on the BeoGram4000... The BC144s never arrived, but did manage to source some from elsewhere.. After a while, I checked the voltage regulator cct - and found that it had blown, which is why I was ta…

Having given up on my 4000, I have decided to work on the BG6000 which I have. It runs well, and drops when it should, and can be run forwards and backwards with no problems. The silent cct works OK, because sound comes …

Play in DIN cable Beogram 3000
in BeoGram · Dec 11, 2022 18:34 GMT

It sounds as if the phono plug has a bad/dry joint. I would open up the 7 pin DIN from the BeoGram, and check the soldered connections. I have found that if I warm up the plastic sleeve on the plug, that it can be slowly…

Well done.. IF you have a problem where it won't switch on - check the pwr supply diodes.. I've had a couple given to me that didn't work - and it was quite often that 2 of the diodes had gone o/c... just sayin..
