Beocord 1200 won't play at 9.5
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 5, 2016 23:31 GMT

Yes, that was the problem. The linkage had seized through dry grease. I managed to free it up using switch cleaner and it now works perfectly. Many thanks for the advice, Martin.

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 5, 2016 20:02 GMT

I have just bought a Beocord 1200 reel to reel tape recorder. It is in really nice condition and working but I have a problem in that it runs too fast on playback. It runs at 19 even when 9.5 is selected. I did manage to…

Just bought a pair of blue Pepsi H6 phones for £179 on eBay, and as others have noted the Pepsi logo is very discreet. In fact, to be honest I didn't even realise that was what it was! I'm very pleased with them, especia…

Beogram 4000 tone arm movement
in General Discussion & Questions · Jul 13, 2014 11:08 GMT

Ok, so it's not the belt. The orange bulb is the neon for the strobe: the bulb chartz is talking about is at the back and not obvious as it's under a black cover. However, you should still be able to see it, assuming it …

As I suggested in my previous thread, have you checked the small belt that drives the arms along the track? If this is worn or slipping, or not aligned properly, the arms will not move across.

No, the cartridge has nothing to do with it. However, do check that the small belt attached to the servo motor is doing its job: it should turn the small wheel slowly which then moves the arms along the track. Check it i…

Sorry, was going to suggest the small belt had come off, but of course it wouldn't move at all then. Remove the cartridge by wiggling it gently side to side while pulling forwards. But be very careful as the connector ca…

As Henry Ford said, 'If it ain't bust don't fix it!' Or something like that. i took one look at the wiring as I was going to do a complete swap, but thought, "On second thoughts, I think I'll leave it alone." :-) Chris
