[Beoaddict]

Greetings from Hamburg/Germany!

I was an avid user of the old forum for many years during the early and mid 2000s – unfortunately, the old user database seems to have not been migrated to the new forum, so here I am as a newbie. 😉

Although I usually tend to stick to the old stuff from the 80s and 90s, I am using Beovision 7-40s throughout the house, most of them MK5. Not even the first MK1 versions that I gave away to family and friends have ever failed me – they seem to be just as sturdy as the good old Philips-tubed MX7000s.

Not so the Beovision 10-46 I have recently acquired. After a few hours, it started to display only colorful lines. Maybe the panel has given up, maybe some capacitors have leaked – who knows.

Before I detach the speaker cover and throw the rest of the heavy thing in the next recycling bin, I would love to have a look inside.

I consider myself relatively handy, but so far I have failed to open the damn thing’s back cover.

There must be a trick, right?
