Hi, on the STB-C wiki for Western Europe (4.45) it only lists a few devices. Is this the complete list or are these the devices that have been added? In the case of the latter, where can I get a full list and does anybod…

Hi, On this site one can read " News: From January 2003, BeoLab 8000 was obtainable with new driver units giving extra bass at low levels. While not delivering as much as a BeoLab 2 (dedicated sub-woofer) the bass driver…

Hi, Is the correct part for the Masterlink option on a MX8000 a T4015 or T4016? Does anyone know what they cost? Thanks, Richard

And dealers wonder why they have few new customers... It is just sheer greed...

Hi, I have recently upgraded the bedroom TV to an MX8000 together with a Beolink Passive connected via Powerlink and a couple of passive speakers. It all works except when I power off and the following happens:- TV goes …

Switching a BM6500 between AM and FM with either a BL1000 MkII or a Beo4

Found it 😁 GOTO SHIFT SOUND switches between AM/FM and then use GOTO up/down diamond to search.

I searched the archive and found the same question asked there but there was no answer. Is it possible? I think TURN on an old BL1000 should do it but "SHIFT SOUND" whuch beocentral says this TURN on the later BL1000 doe…

Unicable & Beovision
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 11, 2015 19:03 GMT

I think Unicable is unlikely to be supported by B&O. It was in the original UK Humax receivers behind a hidden menu and I successfully use it but Humax have removed it completely from their new line of UK Freesat receive…

BM6000 won't go into standby.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 12, 2014 08:28 GMT

Pin 16 of the CPU is an I/O port and the Fairchild F8 datasheet indicates that this would normally be driven from TTL with an open collector. I made a simulation of the circuit and all starts working correctly as soon as…

BM6000 won't go into standby.
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 11, 2014 21:41 GMT

Yes, both the 6.5 & 15 are good. Furthermore, both the clock and the Time base on pins 1 & 15 of the CPU are present and correct. The only thing missing is the 50/60Hz on pin 16 from 16TR4 but as I said above, I don't se…

One extra bit of info, if the PSU caps are allowed to discharge before power is applied then there is a brief "P" displayed before the volume arrow and the zero. However, I am not sure if that is a good or a bad thing...…

I have a BM6000 that I put down a couple of years ago because I suspected the CPU was broken but after browsing the old workshop forum today I decided to have another look. The machine has been fully recapped and when po…

3 new products in May ?
in General Discussion & Questions · May 3, 2014 18:33 GMT

It will be interesting to see if the TV comes as standard with DVB-T DVB-C & 2 x DVB-S2 as most top end Samsung TVs do. I really don't see why I should be expected to shell out another 400 euros just for a DVB-S satellit…

No FM receiving or tuning in Beocenter 7700
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Oct 29, 2013 18:09 GMT

Hi, Sorry typo, it was C15 and it was 47uF. It feeds 30v to the FM section (a44) via d68. If the cap fails the FM section gets no 30v. Richard

Hi I had an identical issue with my BC7700 that had not been used for a while and it turned out to be the PSU. Check the supply voltage to the FM board. I seem to recall that its supply is uniquely via a 40uF Bipolar cap…

Does anyone recognize this part?
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 30, 2011 16:44 GMT

Blackrix, I confirm that it was not Leslie but somebody called Carel that I brought my white M70s from. Maybe I discussed another Marktplaats sale with Leslie (AV9000????) Richard

Leslie, I have the white M70s you sold me mounted on B&O trumpets and before the M70s the stands had S60s. In both cases the bolt is used after the speaker is mounted to either fix it or to tilt the speaker. Richard
