Yesterday one of my Beomaster 3300's developed a hum... 😠 It's quite noticeable, and is at the same level on all speaker outputs and on all inputs (including radio) except phono - where it is slightly louder and has a d…

Is this a good deal?

in eBay - the right way! · Feb 18, 2017 20:02 GMT

I'm looking for a second amp for the dining room, spotted this on eBay and wondered if it was a good deal; or too expensive? It's a bit of a way for me (about 2 hours) but he says he can meet me about half way (Bluewater…

Thanks Martin, you were absolutely spot-on 🤒 I must have squeezed them slightly when I re-fitted the mechanism.... 😳 Now to fire up the (sadly non B&O) turntable and check the record/playback capability Thanks again! B…

Thanks for the link, I mounted the belts exactly how Iit shows in the last photo. I assume this was correct - as his is working. Is it possible to set how far in the heads push to the tape? I still think this could maybe…

There is no movement at all when play is pressed - although both rotate fine when fast forward or rewind are pressed. Just to add - I have just tried it without a tape at all, and when I press play the left hand wheel ro…
