in BeoSound · Nov 11, 2026 15:40Type 2571 is indeed MKIII - EU version (220v). Official name tied to this serial is "BeoSound 9000 EU; Limited Edition;". It was sold around 2010 so is a very late BS9000.
Beosound 2500 Keypad Replacement - Where?
in BeoSound · Apr 16, 2026 19:55Hi all, I have a Beosound 2500 where only a few of the buttons on the bottom row are functioning. I know there used to be keypad replacement kits direct from B&O, and also from third party sellers. I cannot find any of t…
Beosound Premiere Owners Thread
in BeoSound · Mar 23, 2026 13:40Owner here! Silver/no cover. I have loved it since installing and have had no issues whatsoever. I dont have surrounds connected currently, but I also have an A5 and might buy a second one to use them as surrounds. Strea…
Beosound Essence MKI Software
in BeoSound · Mar 17, 2026 22:10Hi all, I saw in an older post that there is a software file floating around for the latest software (4189) for BS Essence MKI. Does anyone have this file they can share? Mine cannot update via usual methods for some rea…
Beogram 4002 Success! (and tips!)
in BeoGram · Feb 26, 2026 17:03Hello all, About 8 months ago I picked up a BG4002 on eBay that had been incorrectly listed as a TX2 for $85 - SCORE (I thought). Initial inspection (forgot to document as I went, so this is from memory and I cant guaran…
Beovision 10 With Modern B&O
in BeoVision · Dec 11, 2025 05:36Hi all, I recently acquired a Beovision 10-32 (MKII) that I will be installing in my den. I have a pair of Beolab 6000s I would like to use with it. Currently, the 6000s are being used with a Beoconnect Core purely for m…
Besound Theatre and Bass Management
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 23, 2025 13:00My understanding is that from Beovision 11 to Beovision Harmony, the default Bass Management settings would send all low end below the crossover threshhold to the MOST capable speakers in the system - meaning your 50s wo…
Beolab 50 and Beoconnect Core USB or PowerLink
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 3, 2025 17:10In the technical sound guide I believe it says that most control is transferred to the 90s/50s when using USB connection, including sound mode etc. So you may get better audio quality, but you’ll be missing sound mode se…
Beosound Core / Beolab 50 volume control
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 3, 2025 17:06Are you finding a difference in sound quality between the Theatre and Core? Wondering the thought process for having both in the system
Beomaster 7000 with Penta buzzing noise
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 2, 2025 16:50Could be worth a shot, I dont have any feedback as to whether that will work or not. There was an immediate change with replacing the capacitor, and a larger cap produced a more quiet buzz. In my case 470uf took out 90% …
Beomaster 7000 with Penta buzzing noise
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 2, 2025 14:32I solved this issue a while back on a Beomaster 4500. Very different setup but the issue was the same: any button press with remote comes out as a buzz through speakers. In my case it was actually the IR transmitter secc…
Beosound 4000 "Disc Motor Does Not Start" Transport Issue
in BeoSound · Sept 25, 2025 18:20Hi all, I have a Beosound 4000 with a disc reading issue. This unit has the CDM12-IND laser with the later board iterations (PCB89 instead of PCB8). I have repaired a lot of these units and I do not believe it to be rela…
Beocord 9000 No Output
in BeoCord · Sept 2, 2025 05:42For those having similar issues: My unit has the earlier PCB2 design (serial 2887011). I highly recommend replacing most if not all electrolytic caps, especially with the BC9000 and its complicated circuitry. In my case,…
Beocord 9000 No Output
in BeoCord · Aug 31, 2025 22:34Hi all, Just acquired a BC9000. Shockingly, all mechanical aspects are working great. Planning on recapping but waiting on a few to arrive. Just did a full restore of an 8002 so I’m reasonably familiar with what I’m look…
Versions of Beosound / Beomaster 5 based on serial number?
in BeoSound · Aug 18, 2025 18:52Cant speak to the motherboard or storage, but updated display is from serial no. 23435307 onward.
Beo6 Touch Screen
in Beo5 & Beo6 · Aug 18, 2025 15:32Hi all, I acquired a Beo6 with no signs of life and was able to get it working again with a new battery and a windows 7 emulator with config tool. Now, the touch screen only works on the bottom ~0.5cm. Is this indicative…
Beomaster 4500 IR Noise/Buzzing
in BeoMaster · Jul 30, 2025 16:26Some speculation here as I am not an electronics engineer: I figured it was some kind of grounding issue. 5C110 takes the transmitters directly to ground - the original was a 10uf cap that was blown in my case. I tried s…
Beomaster 4500 IR Noise/Buzzing
in BeoMaster · Jul 28, 2025 19:17Popped the shield off of PCB4 to discover that the actual software on the chip is 2.2. Must have been updated at some point. Regardless, no change using different connections and inputs. Still buzzing. Haven't found any …
Beosound Theatre + 2 Beolab 8
in Theatre · Jul 28, 2025 01:26The official answer from B&O is to disable L/R speakers in the Theatre. You’ll get muddy separation otherwise. However, play with it both ways and see how it sounds. Nothing stopping you from experimenting.
Beomaster 4500 IR Noise/Buzzing
in BeoMaster · Jul 26, 2025 21:00Alternatively, is there a way to disable 2-way communication? I’d like to use the BL7000 for control but don’t necessarily need the feedback from the BM4500. This would eliminate the noise as it only happens when transmi…
