in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 3, 2009 06:53Hi Steve, Thanks for coming back so quickly. I think I might have confused you slightly. I already have it running through the Avant via a Scart lead but have had to position it to the side of the TV. What I was really a…
Attaching a Sony 5.1 amp/DVD player to an Avant
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 3, 2009 04:33Sorry if this appears to be a silly question but I was just wondering if there is anyway I can do this - as I am currently struggling with an alternative solution as to where to put it. Currently it is sitting on a trunk…
Sound but no picture on BeoVision Avant 28 with VCR
in The Workbench · Mar 28, 2009 05:58Ipaul The tube is fine - its a line output problem and despite being manufactured in 1998 it has only been used for 296 days (7,000 hours) so not even run in! I am going ahead with the repair because as previously mentio…

in The Workbench · Mar 18, 2009 07:03Mark Thanks for offer but suspect given I'm in the South East this probably wouldn't be an option. In your experience would you have any idea of the replacement cost of a tube heater and how length of time to fit? Thanks…

in The Workbench · Mar 18, 2009 05:49Brian Thanks for coming back. All abit techinical for me I'm afraid - I'm not an expert by any means so a little unsure what your talking about. All I know is that I'm waiting for the engineer to advise the cost of repai…
BeoVision Avant 28 inch with VCR
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 18, 2009 05:43Jan In your experience would you not bother with a replacement tube heater? When the engineer looked at it, the tube heater was not glowing therefore not driving the tube. Is it worth going down this route in the first i…
