SP 14 noise trouble
in BeoGram · Mar 5, 2011 05:42[quote user="chartz"] It only does that with this cartridge. My vinyl is in very good condition (the Mozart plays perfectly and silently on my other decks). The deck's suspension is fine, the Beocenter is on the floor, w…
SP 14 noise trouble
in BeoGram · Mar 5, 2011 04:42Jacques, I don't really know what to make of that to be honest. I assume that you don't have this problem when using another cartridge? It appears to have a rythym to it. This happens on all vinyl you play? Might be the …
SP 14 noise trouble
in BeoGram · Mar 4, 2011 19:04[quote user="chartz"] Hi, So if the suspension is knackered, why is it so stiff? And why would this excite the body's resonances? The scraping noise sounds as if it came from a pipe! It makes me think of my old 78's play…
SP 14 noise trouble
in BeoGram · Mar 3, 2011 04:53My suspicion is that the suspension for the catilever has perished and collapsed. I think that you will need to have it refurbished.

SP 14 noise trouble
in BeoGram · Mar 2, 2011 08:19No problem. I was talking about Vertcal Tracking Angle not Tracking Force. The arm on the 1970'S Beogram 3000 should be fine. Don't know the company but the price sounds ok compared to other options. It should be a nice …
SP 14 noise trouble
in BeoGram · Mar 2, 2011 06:37I can't tell from the photo what sort of stylus it is. To replace the stylus, locate the domed, slotted screw underneath, loosen it by 1/2 turn, the stylus part pulls off. You can get a replacement stylus from here . The…
Turntable Speed changing on Beogram 4002 (Related to my earlier post on the same 4002)
in BeoGram · Feb 28, 2011 19:06It isn't my deck. The early BeoGram 4002 decks had an AC motor. Do we know what motor is in this deck? I don't think that OP has stated the model number or motor type. I agree that the engineering overall is better in th…
Turntable Speed changing on Beogram 4002 (Related to my earlier post on the same 4002)
in BeoGram · Feb 28, 2011 07:49[quote user="Søren Hammer"] [quote user="Telecine"] The capacitors and resistors I am referring to would create a small electrical delay in the current to one of the coils within the AC synchronous motor. (They helps sta…

Turntable Speed changing on Beogram 4002 (Related to my earlier post on the same 4002)
in BeoGram · Feb 27, 2011 02:43Not sure about the Beogram but these symptons commonly occur on Rega Planar 3 and P3 turntables (speed instabilty and motor rotating backwards). It is never the motor. The problem is the run/start capacitor and associate…
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 20, 2011 07:00Thanks Mika. I don't think that there is any other way either. I will give the approach to straightening it a bit of thought. Does anyone know whether or not a BG 4002 worm drive shaft will fit in a BG 4000? It would app…
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 18, 2011 20:37I have confirmed that the worm screw drive shaft for the arm mechanism is bent. Any suggestions as to how to straighten it?
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 14, 2011 16:10Some further progress, I have obtained a grub screw and installed it. The drive pulley still wobbles around somewhat when driving the arm. It appears to have a round opening on one end and the D shaped opening on the oth…
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 13, 2011 08:33[quote user="joeyboygolf"] There are 5 screws holding the plinth. 4 are obvious plus one under the control panel. [/quote] Thanks Graham. I don't think that I would have found that one.
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 13, 2011 08:11[quote user="Doctor"] The wooden plinth replaces easily. I have swapped mine around. The plastic washers that hold it are pretty fragile though - I replaced the ones on mine. One of my decks had a particularly hard life …

in BeoGram · Feb 13, 2011 08:05[quote user="Step1"] I would like to do something similar to one of my less than perfect examples Peter! The real trick would be to work out a solution for the platter! I am thinking about it.... @Telecine well done so f…
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 13, 2011 03:11A quick update. I disconnected the drive belt for the arm until I obtain the grub screw to lock the pulley in place. I have now fitted the control panels back in place thanks to Olly's instructions. I figured that I coul…
BeoGram 4000 – In need of Help
in BeoGram · Feb 12, 2011 08:57Thanks Olly. I have checked the pulley and it is not split. I will check out a hobby store or jeweller if one doesn't materialise elsewhere. I intend to update my membership shortly so I will get the service manual then.…
