Replacing incandescent lamp on Beogram 4000
in BeoGram · Sept 21, 2026 07:14Thanks for the link. Yes, I’ve made use of Beolover’s excellent videos from time to time, although he does make it look easy 😀 I managed to install a new incandescent lamp. The BG4000 is working great again now. The bul…
Replacing incandescent lamp on Beogram 4000
in BeoGram · Sept 18, 2026 10:18The sensor arm lamp on my Beogram 4000 gave up recently. I can see the filament has blown. I have a replacement. Can someone provide any tips or procedure to solder the new lamp in place? I can pull out the black plastic…
Another new product looking like a sphere will be presented at Barcelona

Beogram 4000 - What adjustment do I need to make?
in BeoGram · Dec 30, 2025 01:41Hi all and Season's Greetings! My Beogram 4000 has been working very nicely in 2025, needing only minor adjustments here and there. I have noticed that on tonearm drop, it takes the stylus a few attempts to locate the 'i…
BeoGram4000 solenoid thumping noise
in BeoGram · Jul 24, 2025 09:50How loud is the 'thump'? I may be crazy but my stylus creates a slight thump in warmer months, I reckon the heat (even in air con environments) must slightly expand metals, alter the properties of greases etc hence my to…
Beolab 19 vs. Beolab 2
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 24, 2025 09:28I honestly doubt you'd hear much of a difference amongst all that between a BL2 and BL19. I agree though, the 19 is much more aesthetically pleasing. And here I am hand-wringing whether or not I should add a 19 to a thea…
Having issues adding Theatre to app
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 30, 2025 10:15Managed to get it all back. Full reset, had to do all LPs, source settings, br1 pairing etc again. Rather a bit of a pain. Still, I made it leaner with 3 listening positions and sorted out my TV/Music lists etc.

Beogram: Dust covers on or off during when playing
in BeoGram · Jan 7, 2025 11:25Yes, so you did post that link, sorry I missed it! I also thought that the slanted lid was simply part of the design. Whether it had beneficial effects on resonance was likely coincidental. beautiful shot of your BM8000 …
Severed cables on Beogram 8000
in BeoGram · Jan 7, 2025 09:00Oh, wow. Thanks it’s pretty plain now, I can see the empty screw hole. It must be in the chassis somewhere. Ironically, that part is one of the few spares I have. It might be awhile till I get the time to tackle this but…

Beogram: Dust covers on or off during when playing
in BeoGram · Jan 7, 2025 00:08As noted, to the audio file crowd the vote is overwhelmingly lid off. On my 4000, I mostly play lid up because I like it and sometimes lid down if there’s a lot going on (situated in living/dining). Cooking can also intr…
Severed cables on Beogram 8000
in BeoGram · Jan 6, 2025 06:54Hi all and a happy new year! I pulled out my Beogram 8000 from storage a couple of months ago and plugged it in. The carriage moves completely to the end of the rail and doesn’t stop. I can hear the motor still trying wi…

Achieving a smooth tonearm transport (BG4000)
in BeoGram · Dec 7, 2024 04:54Hi, I'm not quite sure what you mean. The servo motor spins as the arm assembly moves towards the record. The arm lowers but there's a significant delay before the first revolution of the pulley. I checked a video I took…
Achieving a smooth tonearm transport (BG4000)
in BeoGram · Dec 7, 2024 01:44Thanks all, I removed the silicone grease and applied a thin layer of a multi-purpose grease and the vibrations are lesser. I'd like to ask another question but I'll put it here whether or not related. This concerns the …
Achieving a smooth tonearm transport (BG4000)
in BeoGram · Nov 28, 2024 21:49I’ve been enjoying a fair bit of music on the 4000 this week and most kinks have been dealt with (until the next one). Now, my attention is on the smoothness of the tonearm mechanism as it travels back to the start posit…
Beosound 4 or Beosound Moment?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 18, 2024 22:25I have a BS4 and it had most of the coating removed except for in he CD compartment which never gets touched. I have my Beogram going into Aux and both are hooked to the Theatre. I like it a lot. Mine can only handle 2gb…
