Beovox S60 Crossover Rebuild (Re-cap)
in General Discussion & Questions · Jun 1, 2014 10:28I notice a major difference to midrange vocal definiton after recapping my s75. My pair was victim of faulty assembly at B&O with a resistor placed on the square poly cap causing it to be partially melted quite badly. I …
Beomaster NR 2200 type 1601 volume problem
in General Discussion & Questions · May 26, 2014 08:39Hi True Blue The BM2200 is a great sounding amp. If you can verify it only needs a new balance slider then it is very well worth spending the last bit of money to get you over the line. Dillen aka Martin may be able to s…

Beovox M100 Recapping
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 15, 2014 01:29Hi Soren Agree, I used Jantzen Cross Caps in my S45-2 and couldn't really hear any difference between them and another pair done with off the shelf electro's. These M100's have come up a treat since recapping though, the…

NOS MMC20CL ? A strange destiny
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 30, 2014 01:32AFAIK there was no glue used in the manufacturing of the cantilever and tip so weird to know where this might have come from, thats a steal anyhow :) If you ever want to move it on let me know :) Drew
Which MMC to fix and how
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 28, 2014 01:55Hi Danny I contacted Axel a few days ago and he informed me he no longer has the sapphire cantilever option. I believe boron is the alternative. Drew

in BeoGram · Apr 28, 2014 01:49Hi everyone. As a follow up Axel informs me he doesn't have the sapphire cantilever and recommends the boron or aluminium as a replacement. Regards andrew

in BeoGram · Apr 23, 2014 02:38Hi Peter I will have a look around, I know with the lid closed on the BG6000, after a few discs it is quite warm inside so I think that will probably get me to where I need to be :) Regards Andrew

in BeoGram · Apr 22, 2014 13:48So I purchased the one I was watching on eBay. Collected it this evening, gave it a bit of a clean. Set tracking weight and it's sounding fantastic on the BG6000 quad. Apparently it's done well under 100 hours and not us…

MMC20CL options in 2014
in BeoGram · Apr 21, 2014 11:03I understood about the generators, I wondered if Axel had the sapphire cantilevers and the same contact line stylus. I was thinking that with many of the stylus profile developments of the 80's we might be able to do bet…

Beomaster 4500 'vs Beomaster 2400
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 20, 2014 05:55I wish they made a Beomaster 2400 flat design with touch controls using the BM2200 amplifier circuit. The 2200 is a little bland to look at but one hell of an amplifier. Glad to hear your unit is coming along well Jeff. …
