today I finally got a chance to open up the Beogram again. Without that clip, you could see the cable bunch up (at “A”) against the Platterlock then bounce back after the arm return ends.
@Dillen Thanks for the tip, I hot glued the cables (adjusted by the clip dents in the cable)—it helped some, the bounce is less. 👍
I’d love to find a new/nos/replacement clip(s), Please let me know if anyone knows of a source or has 5500 parts for sale. Thanks
While this helped. theres still a little ‘stutter’ at the end of travel. It sounds and looks like the gears are still trying to push the arm after its reached its ‘end of travel’ (see attached vid clip). This is my 1st B&O so I have no idea what the ‘norm’ is, could an experienced ‘Beo owner’ confirm…
- is this a normal return? (speed seems fast)
- Are there any marks on the gears (like a car engine) to set ‘top dead center’ so the gearing and ‘end of travel’ is calibrated?
- Is there a way to set the ‘end of travel’? (I only see stylus ‘set down’ points in the Service Manual as an adjustment)
Thanks for an insights
<PS Lastly, how do we add vid clips in the posts in this forum? —I can’t seem to figure that out 😅>
