Beocenter 4000
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 27, 2022 08:26 GMT

Thanks for the reply Martin. Well I think it is 6,5V because that is how it is written in the service manual. I ordered already 6,3 and 6,8 and 5,6V zeners and intend to try them. Maybe you can advise me which one would …

Beocord 2000 type 2921 cassetteplayer, almost dead.

My Beocord 2000 does not start up anymore. Even the standby led is not working. The transformator is working fine. I checked the led and its ok, I measured the voltage on the control board (number 3) and it is only 0.3 v…

Hello Martin, thanks for your reply. If that is the belt that drives the digits wheel: no, I tested it with the deck in the service stand. I will try again with the belt on. Hans.

Last year I bought a Beocord 5000 cassett deck. The deck will play, ff and rewind, but stops after about 3 seconds and draws back the heads. Capstan motor runs smooth and soundless, also after the heads are drawn back. I…

Well Martin it did the trick. I took a good look at the video that Rudi made especially the vaccuum bottle, and read a few more posts about the subject. In one of these Jacques wrote that he also heated up the bearings a…

I recently bought a Beocenter 3500 and after cleaning and lubricating (the switches) the amplifier- and tuner section it works fine. The turntable took more work, but I could get it working again. There is one problem th…

Beomaster 2400 combined with Beogram CD3500?

Thank you Beobuddy for the suggestion. But so far I have not been very succesfull with my electronic surgery operations, thus for now I will leave it as it is because the CD-player works fine. I will keep it in mind thou…

Beomaster 2400 combined with Beogram CD3500?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 1, 2016 15:35 GMT

I must say that I am also happy with sound of this BG CD3500,and also with the looks (used an old Akai for about ten years). I am a bit worried about the amount of heat it produces, you can barely touch the heatsink. Cer…

I just removed the two pins and now it works like a charm! Thank you for the reply Steffen. Hans.

Oops, I see now that this amplifier is a Beomaster 3000, (type 2931). Mistook it for a 2400. I did connect the CD3500 to the tape socket, but as soon as I press the play-button the reciever switches to phono. And if I sw…

Beomaster 2400 combined with Beogram CD3500?
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 30, 2016 16:47 GMT

I wonder whether you can combine a Beogram cd3500 with a Beomaster 2400. I know that the BG3500 has a built in preamp and I am affraid I will damage my BM2400 when I connect the two. Hans.

Beogram 4004 issue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 24, 2016 21:33 GMT

Steve, I am not an expert here, so be cautious with my advice. I have the same Beogram and had the same problem with the damper. After cleaning and lubricating I adjusted the damper speed with the little screw (in the ri…

Beomaster 2400, sound increase
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 23, 2016 09:40 GMT

I came to the same conclusion a few days ago. This is going beyond my capabilities. I don´t like to give up, but I´m affraid I will damage the BM if I continue soldering and resoldering components. Will leave it the hand…

Ok Martin and Mika, I understand that I have to find the source of this voltage drop. I try to do just that, but know next to nothing of electronics. That brings me back to the question: what can cause this voltage drop?…

in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 22, 2016 15:04 GMT

Hello Martin, thanks for your reply. DC-volts measure: The first 15-20 seconds I can vary the volume and voltage stays at -12V while doing that. Then the voltage starts to go down at a steady and even pace, in the same t…

I checked and rechecked the components(the resistors, diodes and transistors, not the capacitors) , but cannot find anything wrong. I went back to the volume board and started measuring voltage. The incoming voltage is 1…
