Beomaster 5000 Tuner - 75 Ohm Coaxial Connection
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Nov 24, 2017 10:32 GMT

Hi Alan, I followed the suggestion in the replies and connected via a short unscreened section to the 75Ohm input. It works fine. I believe any signal degradation at the UHF input has minimal impact compared to other fac…

Beomaster 2400-2 Bulb vs Transistor vs SAS570S Fault
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · May 6, 2016 21:09 GMT

I thought I would share a repair to a fault on a newly acquired BM2400-2 in case it might help someone else. The bulb for preset 3 wasn't lighting up when channel 3 was selected, although channel 3 was playing normally.T…

S45-2's woofer magnets
in General Discussion & Questions · May 3, 2016 19:38 GMT

I am sorry to say that I believe you will struggle to find a replacement S45-2 woofer other than cannibalising another working speaker. I have done this repair and it was fine. Take your time and enjoy bring it back to l…

I didn't buy this as the speakers I was thinking of repaired were too damaged. It is still available if someone else needs it.

Beomaster 6000 volume control problem
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 30, 2016 08:12 GMT

Another thought that might be an easy check is to see if the belt is slipping so that the volume potentiometer is not quite reaching the target point and so the servo keeps the motor running. The belts become less grippy…

Beomaster 6000 volume control problem
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 29, 2016 21:35 GMT

Well done! I hope you get some extra pleasure listening to the BM6000 knowing you have repaired it. I think the BM6000 sounds and looks great. The running on issue sounds like the electrical servo circuit needs adjusting…

Beomaster 6000 volume control problem
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 29, 2016 10:56 GMT

Yes - I did open the gearbox on mine. I think I just used a small screwdriver to push back the clips. Be careful as plastic of this age can be fragile. There are some small pieces inside the gearbox so don't drop any. Wi…

Beomaster 6000 volume control problem
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 29, 2016 07:53 GMT

It sounds like the servo circuit is doing the correct thing electrically. I think you need to either source a replacement motor (difficult) or repair the one you have. I have repaired two in the past. It was not complex,…

Beomaster 6000 volume control problem
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 28, 2016 21:18 GMT

The black box is a gearbox to convert the high rpm from the motor to the low rpm required to adjust the volume. You will not be able to turn the motor by turning the black wheel and you will damage the gearbox if you app…

How much do I need
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 27, 2016 20:27 GMT

I don't have nearly as much as you gentlemen, but I admit that I have run out of sensible rooms in which to place a working B&O system - they are also fighting for space with Quad systems. Not to have them in use seems a…

Beovox C75 Crossover
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 5, 2016 21:09 GMT

A bit more research and I think I can answer my own question - there are two models. Mine are model 6321. The crossover has two capacitors and they appear to have a different tweeter from the later model C75. There may w…

Beovox C75 Crossover
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jan 5, 2016 20:01 GMT

The service manual on this site shows a crossover with a single capacitor. The pair of C75s I have just opened up to recap have two capacitors in the crossover. Is there more than one type of C75?

Beomaster 5000 Tuner - 75 Ohm Coaxial Connection
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Oct 4, 2015 17:26 GMT

Thank you Gentlemen for the rapid replies. My question was concerning the physical and electrical connection. My roof antenna is connected via 75 ohm coaxial cable around the house. I think the 75 ohm input does make mos…

I have a newly aquired 1967 BM5000 tuner. I have a 75 Ohm coaxial aerial socket (fed from my roof antenna) that I need to connect to the BM5000. The BM 5000 has both 300 Ohm and a 75 Ohm flat cable connection sockets. Wh…

BM4400 FM Stereo Decoder
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Aug 31, 2015 19:24 GMT

Dear Martin and Jacques, Thank you for your quick and helpful suggestions. I tried Martin's advice first and remade all the connections on the pig-back board - no change, but a really good idea as I even in my very limit…

BM4400 FM Stereo Decoder

Dear All, I have a newly acquired Beomaster 4400 that has a problem. The radio isn't giving a stereo output (it is otherwise sonically and cosmetically excellent). With a good strong FM signal (4.5 on the signal strength…
