Beovox S45-2 bad sound after transportation
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 4, 2021 01:37I had a problem with my S45-2s way back when. Saying the sound was “blurry” is at least close to the same problem I had. I thought it was a failed phase link first, and even bought one from Martin. In fact, now that i th…
Beovox P45 tweeter issue?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 20, 2021 00:45That looks like the correct tweeter for P45 (and M70). My tweeters were not soldered. Just slipped the mechanical connectors off, then slipped back on. Those tweeter leads are fragile, though. There is a thread somewhere…
Beovox M70 midrange fix or replace?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 8, 2020 00:56The phase link is the 4” cone (third from top) and the midrange is the 2.5” dome (second from top). I suspect a seized phase link would be a straight forward fix. Can’t speak to a dome driver repair.

Woofer Beovox S40 speakers
in General Discussion & Questions · May 11, 2020 19:53I have S40 speakers and like them very much. They needed their surrounds replaced when I bought them, so I also replaced the crossover network capacitors while I had them apart. I would start there. Member Dillen may be …

A hello, and another S45 overhaul
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 6, 2020 13:03Congratulations. My S45-2 pair are set up in the dining room with my best B&O: BM4000, BG4002, BC4500 and CDX. They don't quite get the use they should, because we spend most of our time in the family room where M70s are…

What Are You Reading Now?
in Music & Film · Apr 5, 2020 21:13If I shop for groceries early enough on a Sunday when nothing much is otherwise planned, I’ll often pick up the New York Times from the supermarket and spend the better part of the day skimming/scanning/reading it cover …

in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 22, 2020 02:19[quote user="mbolo01"] I now have the 3300 and the 4500 on my short list. It is very subjective I know but your experience counts too, what do you think? [/quote] Congrats on the 4500. You pulled the trigger before I cou…

in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 21, 2020 00:28I have the BC1900, BC2400, BC3300, BC4500, and BC8004. Of these, the BC4500 is my favorite. All play back prerecorded tapes well.
