Beolab 5000 diagnostics

Hi I have tried to search for a thread that describe diagnostics 101 for the Beolab 5000, but cannot find any. I just purchased a tired one for way too much money, but are getting progress now. I have sanded the rust on most of the metal, except the bottom plate and some minor rust on some brackets....

Beloab 5000 speakers, connection options

Hello So I got my first B&O products today, a pair of Beolab 5000 active speakers. When I got home I set the selector switches to N and A and connected my phone to the line in connectors with a standard minijack to rca cable, just to verify that they work. Sadly, one of them did not play. It seems...

Blown away by a Beolab / Beomaster 5000 / BeoVox M70 system older than me!!

Hi. I’m very new to this forum but I just recently bought from a friend a quite mint Beo system for about $300 (amp tuner and speakers) and I’m simply shocked by how well it sounds using Spotify on iPad 😳 What astounds me is that this system is older than I am since it was produced sometime...

The Beolab 5000 of 1967

Re: Moving Coil - Beolab 5000 (1967)

[quote user="Dave Farr"] Hi Frede, I hope you're feeling a bit better. As I've ordered the Beogram 3000 Thorens TD124MkII combination from you, I may be interested in one of these modules - of course, it depends on cost and availability. Dave. [/quote] Hi Dave, Thank you very much ...

Re: Moving Coil - Beolab 5000 (1967)

The moving coil module for Beolab 5000 is build and playing. I am really surprised – the sonic quality of a vinyl record played by a Moving Coil cartridge like the famous Ortofon and my new moving coil RIAA module with stepup transformer (the original microphone transformer from a Beolab 5000)...

Re: Moving Coil - Beolab 5000 (1967)

I will try to explain a little more. I am going to design a box (like the stereo with box). The box will have these inputs: Phono input (for MM cartriges like B&O) Phono input for MC cartridges like Ortofon -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Inside...

Re: Moving Coil - Beolab 5000 (1967)

[quote user="chartz"] Interesting Frede. Now wouldn't it be possible to actually use the MIC transformer inside and re-route the signal within the Beolab so that the MC signal would arrive at the input of the normal phono circuit? Not much to do then. Just wiring. Possibly a change of two...

Moving Coil - Beolab 5000 (1967)

Yes - I know this is not of very high interest for most people! But – I would like the possibility to connect a Moving Coil cartridge to my Beolab 5000. I could buy a passive step-up transformer – like someone perhaps already have done. But for me a true Bang and Olufsen solution would be...

Privat survey of Beolab 5000 - Beomaster 5000 producs
