in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 19, 2012 06:29In some Beocord 5500 (and 6500, 7000) tape mechanisms there is a small belt running a tape-movement sensor. If the belt is missing there won't be any indication of tape movement to the electronics and the deck will stop.…
Beomaster 3500 lid
in General Discussion & Questions · Jan 17, 2012 10:34On Beomaster 3500/4500 the grey/mirrored panel doesn't open. All audio controls are electronic and used with either remote or from the touch sensitive buttons on the glass panel. The Beocord and Beogram CD 3500/4500 have…

Beolab 3500 Master Control Link cable
in The Workbench · Oct 31, 2011 13:43Hello. I have been offered a BL3500 link speaker. In addition to the Masterlink socket it has a 8-pin DIN -socket (which everyone confuses for a Powerlink socket, which it isn't) for Master Control Link (MCL). The sets t…
A find at the skip
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 30, 2011 16:33I can see where this leads: now you have to check every BM1900-2 you ever come across, and check if it matches with the serial number on the box. Then, after you have found it, you will buy it, for whatever cost. Then yo…
BeoSystem 5000
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 26, 2011 13:47Without the jumpers there should be no sound at all from the speaker outputs (and from the headphone output as that's just a copy of the speaker output with a limiting resistors). Without the jumpers (line ins not connec…
BeoSystem 5000
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 26, 2011 13:20I think I got it. You mention connecting your CD-player to the RCA line in jacks. The problem is that those connectors are NOT meant to be used that way! Between the "line in" and "line out" RCA sockets should be two met…
I went to 1991 to do some shopping
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 19, 2011 14:00[quote user="tournedos"] It is so pretty, I had never seen any of the 4500 components in person before and I'm quite tempted to start collecting a set - but for now, the Beocord will go back to the safety of its comfy bo…
beocenter 1400
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Oct 5, 2011 12:31Beocenter 1400 was my first B&O I had! Still have it but it's in storage (can't try removing the sides). I seem to remember that the side panels just pull off. I think I did it by hand and from the bottom side (rather th…
VOLTMETER RV7 - RESISTOR VALUE
in The Workbench · Sept 28, 2011 11:35I also find a photo of the insides or my RV7. Unfortunately the photo is not especially a good one, but clearly there is just one resistor, too.
VOLTMETER RV7 - RESISTOR VALUE
in The Workbench · Sept 28, 2011 11:17I have a RV7, too. I managed to find a parts list and from the internet. I'll try to find it again and post a link. EDIT: That wasn't too easy! Here is the parts list. I am not quite sure about the resistor in question, …
BeoLab 8000s HELP!
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 27, 2011 06:52How are the switches set? There is a switch (near the connectors) to change between powerlink left and right and RCA.

BM7000 malfunctioning
in The Workbench · Sept 15, 2011 15:55Unfortunately, the BM is going crazy again. Same symptoms as last time. I opened it and remade some solderings but no difference. I don't think I have enough wits to continue from here; to the service center again... 🙁
Flash your B&O!
in General Discussion & Questions · Sept 13, 2011 11:59Just got this: (The big one, not the Beo4!) 😎 Yep, a B&O tube voltmeter, model RV 7. I got this one from eBay, one of Martin's auctions. 🤒 Pretty much clean and seems to be working nicely, haven't done much testing. On…
BM7000 malfunctioning
in The Workbench · Sept 8, 2011 16:02Yeah, it was good service, but yours, Steffen was even better by your description! The fact they admitted that they "should have found the fault in the first time" shows really high standard by the service center/repair …
Master Control Panel 5500 display
in The Workbench · Sept 7, 2011 12:34I did some more testing. I tried several combinations of the test points but to little avail. I was able to keep the display on, BUT it was rather useless: after the normal "display on" period the battery low -indication…
