in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 22, 2019 06:46After almost five years of waiting and wanting, I finally treated myself to a Christmas present and bought a matching Beogram 7000 in black to go with the rest of my 7000 System. The good is the unit is in very good cosm…
Good resellers within a few hudred miles of Philadelphia?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 8, 2019 00:02If you're looking for household appliances in the USA (not B&O), a good place to look is at a Sears Outlet store. Same thing as above, they sell discontinued models, product returns, or scratch and dent appliances that a…
Beolab Penta vs Beovox Redline 140 / RL 7000
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 2, 2019 20:07Specs are fine, but it comes down to the sound. Why not just get both RLs and Pentas and try them out? Once you make up your mind, either sell the other ones, or use them for a multi-room setup.
Beolab Penta vs Beovox Redline 140 / RL 7000
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 29, 2018 01:36I heard both on my Beosystem 7000 side by side, Beolab Pentas and RL 60s. Both speakers sound clear and perform well, but In my opinion, the Pentas carry more range, especially in the lower frequencies. I went with Penta…
Choosing my first Beogram and Speakers
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 27, 2018 05:01It really depends on what you're trying to achieve. From your post, it looks as if you just want to play records on a Beogram and listen to the music on some small speakers. As far as I know all the Beograms are just com…
Reconfigure Beomaster 7000 for 110 VAC???
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 18, 2018 05:09After a year being packed away and a move half-way around the world, I finally got my Beosystem back up and running with a 220V step-up transformer. I tested it with some old Apple pro speakers I had been using with my l…

Reconfigure Beomaster 7000 for 110 VAC???
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Nov 14, 2018 18:41Hello, I recently relocated from Europe back to the good old USA and brought my Beomaster 7000. I would like to convert it from 220 to 110 VAC. Is this possible? Or do I need a different power supply? I am handy with a s…
Looking for wire to make replacement cord drive for Beogram CD 7000
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 20, 2015 18:11Hi Beoworld community- The cord drive in my Beogram CD fell off the spool and was damaged. I think my kids tried to load more than 1 cd in it. The cord drive is the thin wire that moves the cd tray in and out. It appears…
Why do you choose B&O?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 25, 2015 21:11Design aside, it's all about integration. I can connect a 30 year-old record player (Beogram 8000) to a 20 year-old stereo-system (Beosystem 7000) and integrate it with a semi-modern TV (Avant) + speakers and control it …
Are European lifestyles under threat?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Nov 8, 2015 10:22I'm honestly split on this one. I'm an American who spent three years in Iraq and now lives in Germany since 2009. I have experienced this crises from three different perspectives. Our stupidity and hubris broke Iraq. Bu…

Seller beware - an eBay rant!
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 18, 2015 20:57[quote user="Chris Townsend"]eBay were meant to have a system that watched out for dodgy bidding. Patterns etc [/quote] eBay makes more profit on the seller fees if the item sells for more. A conflict of interest?
Beosystem 7000 & Beovision 7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 20, 2015 10:03" I would leave the pentas connected to the stereo (I have a Beolink 7000), if I understand well, I must use a converter ML / MCL" No, you need the 1611 converter - which converts Datalink to Master Link and vice-versa. …
Vinyl and B&O
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 12, 2015 09:00When overall sales are small as a percentage of the overall market, 50% is not much growth!!! That's like saying Rolls Royce is about to take over the auto market because I sold 10 cars one year and 15 the next and no ot…
Beosystem 7000 & Beovision 7-40
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 12, 2015 08:49I tried a similar setup for a while but in the end prefer having the Pentas connected to the Beomaster, as I listen to music 90% of the time and watch TV only about 10%. You only need the power link cable between the con…

Beolink 5000 Dead pixel repair
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 26, 2015 12:08Hi Maurice, I do not think that my Beolink needs a new ribbon cable. I think the problem is a weak solder joint. When I store my Beolink in a cold place, such as in my cellar in the winter, I lose about 80% of the pixels…
