Beomaster 4000 good for repair practice?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Apr 15, 2021 09:36Dropped by a fleamarket yesterday and picked up a BM4000 for 100kr- I felt it was too good a deal to pass up. It turns on sometimes , but usually takes a good bit of fiddling with the switch. Both channels work ok , but …
Beovision 5 in 2020
in General Discussion & Questions · Dec 1, 2020 17:41Can anyone testify as to the picture quality of the Beovision 5? I'm not too concerned with resolution, as I'm mostly going to be using it with older, natively analog devices. What really matters to me are black levels, …
Beovision 5 in 2020?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Dec 1, 2020 16:26I just realized this is not yet about a 25 year old product. I'll post again in a more appropriate forum.

Best passive speakers for a 40W amp?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Oct 15, 2020 12:24Title says it all. Looking for a nice pair of floorstanding speakers that won't sound meek hooked up to my 20WPC 70s Setton receiver. What's the best B&O has to offer here? In Denmark so finding B&O stuff at a decent pri…
Best Open Reel Tape Recorder?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jul 25, 2020 15:12I’ve been trying to get into Reel To Reel recently, and as a diehard B&O fanboy, I’m wondering what the best R2R they made was. Unfortunately, I can’t find much info online, so I was hoping someone here could enlighten m…
Ambiophonic Stereo - is it really that good?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 4, 2020 13:07[quote user="Orava"] [/quote] Thanks so much! Just to be clear, if I wanted my ambio speakers to be wired to my speaker B terminals (so as to make the whole system toggleable) would I have to short the 2 negative termina…
Ambiophonic Stereo - is it really that good?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 3, 2020 14:37Is there any way you could send a diagram or some other visual aid? I’m somehow too stupid to decode what you mean here, ahah
Ambiophonic Stereo - is it really that good?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 3, 2020 09:36Sounds fun- not so much inexpensive. Is there a cheaper solution than buying the official B&O adapter?
Ambiophonic Stereo - is it really that good?
in Imported Content (Unmapped) · Jun 2, 2020 12:50I heard about the ambio mode that was present on many old B&O receivers recently, and I’ve since admittedly become slightly obsessed with the idea. So much so that I’ve considered investing in an old Ambiophonic Stereo A…
What B&O tape decks are worth it?
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 1, 2020 17:34Thanks for the comprehensive insight! Last time I tried doing basic repairs on a tape deck I broke the poor thing even further... but on the contrary, I live right in Copenhagen so buying belts from Martin would almost b…

What B&O tape decks are worth it?
in General Discussion & Questions · Apr 1, 2020 09:41[quote user="Dillen"] Beocord 8004 has Dolby C, if that matters. Martin [/quote] I had not realized that! I’ll have to keep an eye out on dba for a steal-deal on that model (though I doubt they show up often). thanks for…

What B&O tape decks are worth it?
in General Discussion & Questions · Mar 31, 2020 22:09heard someone say recently that, at their best, B&O tape decks could outperform Nakamichis. This sounds absurd to me, but given the abundance of B&O equipment being sold for practically nothing in my area, I figured I’d …
Refurbishing some old BeoVox S45s and they’re... sticky?
in General Discussion & Questions · Nov 8, 2019 19:15I recently got ahold of a set of BeoVox S45 speakers to try my hand at refurbishing. Don’t know too much about the original owner, besides, from the smell, that they definitely liked smoking around their speakers. Popped…
