"Force" Beovision LX2800 into AV mode?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 9, 2012 11:16Thanks! Well, that was easy. Should've looked at the manual before asking. The LX2800 still has a pretty extensive manual, which, among other things, includes a full pinout of all connectors. Which also mentions 12V on P…
"Force" Beovision LX2800 into AV mode?
in General Discussion & Questions · Feb 8, 2012 16:47So...every time I move I get a new Beovision. I mean, those CRTs are practically given away, so it's easier just to sell the old one and get a new one in the new place. Beats moving those monsters. 😕 This time I got a L…
LC1 schematics - real or fantasy?
in The Workbench · Dec 9, 2011 08:31Well...I no longer have a working module, that's the whole problem here. Got those two broken LC1s with a bunch of other stuff about a year ago. Fixed one and eventually sold it on, since I had absolutely no use for it. …
LC1 schematics - real or fantasy?
in The Workbench · Dec 8, 2011 15:37Nope. Verified my claim...there are no component numbers for the SMD-parts. Kind of in a dead end now. The defective components I know of (couldn't find any others so far) are on the lowermost board - the one with the co…
LC1 schematics - real or fantasy?
in The Workbench · Nov 10, 2011 10:13Can't really check that right now, I won't be home till next weekend...but: If I remember correctly, there are no component numbers for the SMD-components?
LC1 schematics - real or fantasy?
in The Workbench · Nov 9, 2011 11:21I know this has been discussed before, but all the threads somehow end with "I can't get this damn thing open anyway!". Well, I was able to do exactly that. Had two broken LC1s, disassembled both, fixed one using parts f…
Beogram 42VF - some questions
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Nov 5, 2011 18:32Just curious: What exactly is the difference between these two? The 75µ came with the Beogram, so I suppose this is the orignal. Unfortunately the stylus didn't survive shipping, so now I'm using the 15µ.
Compatible turntables for Beomaster 5000
in General Discussion & Questions · Oct 18, 2011 07:30Do you still have all parts of the tonearm? If so, it's an easy fix. Been there, done that. Several times. http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/t/21757.aspx (ok, the "easy" part was a lie. 😁) But before you scrap the thing,…
Is this B&O? Record player from a Radiogram (?)
in eBay - the right way! · Oct 1, 2011 15:25Just had a closer look - on the perimeter it reads Skandinavisk Radio & Televison Denmark (-> so the middle ought to be SRT) Type 643 F1 (?). And actually found something! http://www.radiomuseum.org/r/skandinav_643.html …
Is this B&O? Record player from a Radiogram (?)
in eBay - the right way! · Oct 1, 2011 13:47http://www.ebay.de/itm/110747894425 Just curious. I might buy it anyway, I kind of like it. Now at first glance, this doesn't look like B&O at all - but then again, if you look close, it uses the speed selector from the …
LC1 for sale
in For Sale · Sept 20, 2011 15:16Just realised I still have this. So...for sale: 1x LC1. Some scratches and dings, still looks good as long as you don't get to close. Had a general overhaul some months ago (all caps are new) and is working just fine. 22…
Beolab 5000 (Amp) - Tuner/Aux connections -why reversed?!
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 27, 2011 13:07So after fixing the power supply and the left amp I'm finally testing the Beolab. One thing I noticed - both the AUX and Tuner connections were not working. I just assumed there was a fault in the preamp, but then I reme…
Beogram 42VF - some questions
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 26, 2011 14:39😡 You know how sometimes you spend an eternity looking for a problem, and then suddenly you stop and think: "Wait, have I checked...? I mean it's obvious, I'm sure I have...right?". Well, then you know how I feel right …
Beogram 42VF - some questions
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 25, 2011 11:51When the base is grounded, it oscillates between 1,7V and no connectivity. Excuse my ignorance, I was born long after the days of germanium semiconductors. 😁 There are 25V after the diode, I haven't measured further dow…
Beogram 42VF - some questions
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 25, 2011 10:38Thanks for your input! Replaced the diodes with 1N4001s - still nothing. Checked the capacitors - capacitance and ESR both measure out fine. Checked the transistors out of circuit - they also measure 1,7V e->c...they sho…
Beogram 42VF - some questions
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 25, 2011 08:32Does anyone have a good quality scan of the preamp-schematics? I can't really read most of the things on beaker's scan. What I've found so far: AC126...wasn't it those that grow crystals or something?...both test ok, but…
Beogram 42VF - some questions
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 25, 2011 06:26Thanks to Martin, there finally is some progress: For future reference: The bearing on the ST/L and the Beogram 1000 tonearm is identical, the arm itselft is not (the ST/L arm is longer due to the different counterweight…
White 70s Beosystem 2000 STILL for sale - Germany
in For Sale · Aug 23, 2011 08:21Somebody please buy this! I'm moving out in two weeks and I'm not taking this with me. But you know what? If nobody does, I'm going to put it in a nice, solid box and store it away in a dry place for the next 10 years. A…
White 70s Beosystem 2000 STILL for sale - Germany
in For Sale · Aug 18, 2011 14:52No, I don't. I just thought it'd be better to translate it right away - before someone uses Google translate and ends up thinking "what the hell did B&O just say about my mother?!". 😁 Anyway, the system is still for sal…
