Sometimes, things aren't too good to be true!
in eBay - the right way! · Jan 14, 2012 23:22Thanks! I'm not quite sure whether or not he knew of exactly what B&O is. Another thing I wonder is why nobody else went for it. I'm sure there are other B&O enthusiasts in this area, and there was over a day left on bot…
Sometimes, things aren't too good to be true!
in eBay - the right way! · Jan 13, 2012 03:03Hello everyone! Haven't been around here much lately, just been keeping my B&O gear running. A few nights ago, I was doing my usual "beogram" search on eBay for the hell of it, when I spotted this auction: 😉 Link #1 At …
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 19, 2011 19:02Just noticed a possible problem... 😉 With headphones plugged in, I can hear a near-constant crackling sound, mainly in the right channel. While this is most prevalent during playback, some soft crackling can be heard wh…
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 19, 2011 15:10Hello again, everyone. As I may have mentioned before, the wood in one of the corners got damaged along with the button panel. Might there be a way to put it back to normal? See the damage below: Finally, for your perusa…
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 19, 2011 00:07[quote user="Eugene"] Buy your friend a beer !!! or maybe two. [/quote] Yeah, he definitely deserves something for what he was able to do with it. 🙂 Anyway, one thing I've noticed thus far is that the "RECORD" light app…
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 18, 2011 15:50An update! Thanks to a friend of mine, the front panel of my Beocord 8002 is once again as it should be, and the unit seems to be working perfectly! 😁 He used a combination of the old plastic clips and some metal brads …
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 26, 2011 01:20The front right corner of the wood is a bit messed up (possibly the impact point), but otherwise seems intact. The area under the transport cover door looks OK, and the door itself still works fine. The guy who sent it t…
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 25, 2011 17:17[quote user="Dillen"] If too much is broken, the easiest thing would probably be to replace the whole front panel. With the Beocord open, don't open the top part up to vertical but instead lift it a bit and pull it forwa…
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 23, 2011 21:46Yeah, I only paid about $40. Still, I'd like to have this intact so I can experience the wonders of B&O cassette decks (especially since this is one of their best). Hopefully, Martin can fill us in on how this method is …
Beocord 8002 shipping damage
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 23, 2011 15:55Hello everyone. I was recently sent a Beocord 8002. Unfortunately, the packing job wasn't quite up-to-snuff, and several of the buttons on the front panel have somehow been pushed out of their normal slots, and are float…
Beomaster 1000 - missing FM stereo decoder?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 11, 2010 12:09[quote user="Dillen"]The type 2312 was an odd one, half a step from the early type towards the later. The two phono inputs are of different levels. One is at line level (with no RIAA) while the other is at "true" phono l…
Beomaster 1000 - missing FM stereo decoder?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 11, 2010 01:37[quote user="tournedos"] Unfortunately I've never seen a single MPX decoder on sale, at least not on fleaBay. You might get one from a fellow Beoworlder, but I suppose a more likely source is a donor unit. I believe the …
Beomaster 1000 - missing FM stereo decoder?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 10, 2010 02:11[quote user="Dillen"] A stereo decoder was optional and far from all Beomaster 1000's got one. The optional boards are quite sought after so be prepared to pay a little for one. The RIAA board in your Beomaster is also a…
Beomaster 1000 - missing FM stereo decoder?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 8, 2010 23:28Hello everyone. I recently acquired my first non-turntable piece of B&O equipment, a Beomaster 1000 (later version, with gray faceplate). When tried, it worked fine, but FM refused to come in as stereo. After some diggin…
Beogram 8000/8002: Tracking weight sliders compatible?
in The Workbench · Feb 13, 2010 14:54To help, here are a couple of photos. First, from the Beogram 8000 owner's manual, a side view of the tracking weight slider: Second, from the Beogram 6006/8000/8002 service manual, a portion of the diagram of the tonear…
Beogram 8000/8002: Tracking weight sliders compatible?
in The Workbench · Feb 12, 2010 22:04Hello everyone. As you may know, I have a Beogram 8000 which is missing the plastic slider used to change the tracking weight. I've recently been offered the tracking weight slider from a Beogram 8002 as a possible repla…
faulty MMC-2?
in BeoGram · Dec 9, 2009 03:12[quote user="Peter "] I don't think he did? He did repair one of the cantilevers by putting a fine wire up the cantilever of a MMC5 and glueing it - seemed quite a lot of work for a MMC5 to be honest! You cannot really g…
Anyone near Massachusets.
in North America · Nov 27, 2009 10:04Yeah, I'd found the website, but didn't know which lot number it was, or when it'd be sold, and their website leaves much to be desired. However, I've figured that out. I just kinda wish they were selling it separately, …

Beogram 4002 distortion
in BeoGram · Nov 16, 2009 13:56Actually, the problem may lie with your records themselves. Inner groove distortion can result from a record being played with a turntable which is not properly set-up with regards to the cartridge and stylus. Most, if n…
