Reply To: Beogram 4000 (is this worth buying as a project?)

Potentially a great deal, if for anything, just the MMC6000 cartridge, if it works, is alone worth more! If it works… On the turntable, you could get VERY lucky, but that is unlikely! So, step by step, $ by $, you could easily end up with another US$2000 in it, so you must decide if you want this wonderfull engineering masterpiece to become yours to keep and charish for another 40 years! You will know what you did to it, you will enjoy making it as well! Alternatively, you could just find a working one for less, say $1000-1500 and enjoy it equally… In a former scenario, just sticking to it and reading and learning from Beolover vlog and write-ups, you can go a long way and really enjoy the process of converting something that does not work into a beautifull working vintage deck!
