Beolab Penta schakelt niet uit
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 17, 2013 21:59 GMT

In de gebruiksaanwijzing staat het volgende: When the signal disappears, the speaker automatically switches off, i.e. reverts to stand-by mode, after a delay of approx. 10 seconds (MODE switch in L or R position) or appr…

Beolab Penta schakelt niet uit
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 16, 2013 21:37 GMT

Ik heb een paar dagen geleden een nette set Beolab Penta's MK2 gekocht voor een mooi prijsje. Ik heb ze nu even direct aangesloten op mijn computer met een jack-tulp kabel. De speakers schakelen echter niet vanzelf uit. …

Beolab Penta II volume from PC
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 14, 2013 22:35 GMT

That nuforce preamp looks pretty cool. It comes with a matching price tag though. If I'm spending that kind of money, I might add another €100 and get a used Beocenter 2300. I probably want to add a TV to this setup too …

Beolab Penta II volume from PC
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 14, 2013 13:36 GMT

Hi guys, I just acquired a set of Beolab Penta's MKII. I hooked them up to my pc using the line in sockets. When I turn the volume of my PC all the way up (or my ipod's) the sound from the speakers is only at medium'ish …

Removing trim from MS150 8 inch driver
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Mar 3, 2013 17:12 GMT

I've installed the new surrounds today and put the drivers back in the cabinet's face. I'm still in doubt whether I should replace the 10 inch Soundlab driver with a proper Peerless SLS-263. They are €85 each and I'm not…

Removing trim from MS150 8 inch driver
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 28, 2013 21:38 GMT

Since it didn't happen without pics: As you can see, the first picture also shows the reason why I don't need to replace the foam on the 10 inch driver. The entire unit has been replaced quite some time ago. I tried to f…

8 inch driver taken out of the cabinet for refoaming

Removing trim from MS150 8 inch driver
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 27, 2013 13:02 GMT

Already found the solution myself... I also took out the driver from the second cabinet which gave me a lot less trouble. The yellowish gasket was just extremely sticky and it just required more force to get the speaker …

Hey guys, I decided to finally take the leap and open up my MS150's to get the 8 inch drivers out for refoaming. Taking the front of the cabinet of was fairly easy and I got the woofers out. I just don't see how you remo…

Beogram 8000, only speed controls working
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 14, 2013 01:07 GMT

Hi guys, After getting my Beomaster 8000 running again with your help, I thought it would be nice to get the Beogram working as well. The problem I'm having is this: As soon as I plug it in, the TT starts to rotate, disp…

Beomaster 8000, displaying 888 and another not working at all
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 1, 2013 20:40 GMT

[quote user="hamacbleu"] I agree: I've just "successfully" change the components on the left output amplifier of my BM 8000. When I reconnected it, it made Bang, no more Olufsen, with fire and smoke near the connectors o…

[quote user="Beobuddy"] Did the amp survive new years eve? 😁 [/quote] Haha, yes it sure did!

Thanks to Beobuddy the BM is working beautifully once again. I think Martin was right in telling me in the beginning not to try repairing this machine myself. Rebuilding the amp is one thing, but there are just so many o…

[quote user="Beobuddy"] Probably also mentioned earlier, what voltage do you measure across the (emittor) resistors in the outputstage? [/quote] The emittor resistors are R236/R237, right? The problem is the voltage meas…

Thanks everyone for the input, it is much appreciated! Beobuddy, I guess you mean the resistance on R226? That does vary, when looking from the front of the amp, I measure the same value between the right 2 posts as betw…

Nope, R225 is just fine at 100 ohms.

Across TP200/201 it measures 0.8 ohms. (I checked the left amp for reference, gives the same value)

Johan, I tried making incremental adjustments to R226, but couldn't get a reading, no matter what position it was in.
