Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 9, 2016 21:29OK, I just finished one crossover of the S75's, and it really sounds fantastic!! In comparison with the other, the vocals and higher tones sound very clear now, a remarkable difference! There is the new crossover with th…
Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 5, 2016 19:56I started unsoldering and taking out the drivers and the crossover of one of the S75's, but encountered some small problems: The rubber surrounding of the woofer is a little bit loose at one point. With what kind of glue…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 1, 2016 22:34Coming to that: I had a look inside the speakers. What to do now? As Martin (Dillen) told me in a PM when ordering a capacitor-kit, for replacing the capacitors I need to cut the old cap out leaving small stumps of leads…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Feb 1, 2016 22:24Ok, it has been a while since I've been writing something on the workbench-forum. But that doesn't mean I haven't been busy! I first thought that I should choose two sides which looked the best when placed in my living r…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 19, 2015 22:51I'm not sure if I will keep them... I don't own any LP and the M70's are just a little bit too big... Ofcourse I will compare them to the S75's.

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 19, 2015 21:51Ofcourse this should be in a new thread about the Beomaster, but just a couple of pictures can't harm anyone, can they... From the outside it really looks fantastic. only very light scrapings in the top veneer. It really…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 19, 2015 20:29And suddenly I'm the proud owner of, not only a pair of beovox S75's, but also a pair of beovox M70's, a beocord 1101, a beogram 4002 and (the reason why I did this purchase) a beomaster 4000! it seems that everything is…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 16, 2015 11:46Do you think it still needs sanding after oiling? Won't I sand off the old english covering up the paint? (at least I hope it will cover up the paint...)

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 16, 2015 11:42I can see that he oil contains white spirit and methanol, are those the driers they are talking about? I could choose between a "normal" danish oil, and from a different brand "improved" danish oil. Both based on tung oi…
Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 15, 2015 17:22I finally found Danish oil! Based on tung oil though, not linseed oil. However, still no luck with an oil based wood stain. I will have to order the "old english" online and wait for the delivery... Let's hope that the p…
Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 13, 2015 21:11I'm looking forward starting on the veneer with oil to cover up those paint spots, but that will have to wait untill I find the correct ones... I've found a product based on tung oil instead of linseedoil. Could this be …

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 13, 2015 20:23[quote user="Søren Mexico"] BM 3000-2: You will have to repair all amps/receivers of this age and type, I have BM 901, BM 2400, BM 1000, BM 4000, BM 4400 (was worse than the BL 5000) All of these needed at least new elec…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 12, 2015 21:03Ok, the bushings couldn't be pressed in, but were easily hammered in. I will fixate them later, when I start with the inside. I still haven't found an oil-based wood stain. Most of them are water-based or wax... I'll kee…
Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 12, 2015 15:14Hmmm, still can't find either danish oil or old english... I had to stop searching to put my two year old daughter to bed... I therefore started with the backsides. Just some sanding to prepare it for spraypainting. But …

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 12, 2015 11:37Any ideas about other names for "old english" and "danish oil"? I've been to one store sofar and couldn't find any...
Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 12, 2015 08:36Ok, here's the plan: I'll peel off the largest pieces of remaing paint with a needle ( I allready did that, it works but works terribly slow, so doing all of the paint that way will take way too long) after that, some mo…

Beovox S75 Rescue
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 11, 2015 21:33I've taken a picture of the veneer, before doing another treatment with the paint remover, sanding with sandingpaper 120 and cleaning with aceton. After that I took a picture of that same spot for comparison. This is the…

in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 11, 2015 06:46Thanks sonavor, You're a big help! I will read them in my spare hours today... just using the Danish oil probably won't cover the white paint, don't you think? Or is there some colour in it? René
