Beogram 8002 euro to us power
in BeoGram · Feb 22, 2017 19:44AFAIK all you need is to replace your transformer which is a plug and play deal. I probably have one. I am in NW NJ. Where are you? (I might even have 2 good transformers for both decks)

in BeoGram · Aug 11, 2015 23:27You only have to push the rod out a little way before you can clamp mini-vicegrips to the other end and pull it out. It goes back pretty easily if you un-weigh the hinge while twisting and pushing it. This makes re-assem…

in BeoGram · Sept 18, 2014 01:28there's scores of relays and many differences, but this one is very simple. One magnetic coil (with 2 terminals) pulls the 2 pair of relay contacts (one pair per channel) apart when un-muting, which separates the + & - s…

in BeoGram · Sept 17, 2014 22:33@sonavor-I hope you are a quick learner! You may need to learn some basic electrical stuff to be effective here. That is the relay; all that I've opened had clear covers. If this is the turntable that develops a weak cha…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Sept 15, 2014 19:57This IS a great read!! I'm up to pg 13 now. Pg13/Dillen: "The Beogram 6006 and 8000 CPUs are interchangable. The 8002 is not. Apparent differences are that it supports the two little arrows on the sensor arm and it has a…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Sept 15, 2014 19:04It's Phil, and I'm connecting some dots. I hadn't seen this thread until your link to it about the grounding spring on Rajod's 8002 thread. And I bet I know you from VE and you have a PX-2 Yamaha as well? And we both nib…

in BeoGram · Sept 15, 2014 16:01The DIN socket/muting relay assy (8005044 on wiring diag) is secured by a single screw and two curved tabs that hinge up/out of the base after releasing the screw. If the looseness is from the screw, the entire assy will…

in BeoGram · Sept 15, 2014 01:54Aside: is there any way to edit your own posts on the forum?............YES!! What I'd edit is to get clarification about the spring you saw on a picture i don't find in this string. Yes. There is supposed to be a captur…

in BeoGram · Sept 15, 2014 01:41Yes-any small spring like a shortened pen-spring will work to act as a ground for the trim-plate. The muting relay is in the DIN socket assy in the upper left corner, above your red A. You need to dismount it and turn it…

in BeoGram · Sept 13, 2014 16:53It occurs to me that the muting relay (should) cycle whenever a record ends but Rajod states it takes ~5hrs for the defect to happen. Does the relay work when the tonearm goes to the parked position? How about putting a …

in BeoGram · Sept 4, 2014 01:21I still suggest muting relay. I realize it grounds the + side to ground only while muting and shouldn't logically be the fault, but in that it cycles and moves it's contacter whenever you end play or shut the deck off AN…
