    Hi Evan,

    It could be because you are only showing as a Bronze Member, and you need to be Silver or Gold to access the manuals.

    If you think your membership is incorrect can you please contact admin using the ‘contact’ link top right.

    Many thanks!

    Gasp! I hadn’t realized that my membership had lapsed! Now renewed.

    Hey y’all, I’m having issues figuring out how to even display the manuals/guides in the first place.

    I have a BeoVision 10-46 I want to start messing around with and was hoping to get my hands on the guide to start…. However when I click any of the View buttons, they redirect to my account profile settings (yes, I am logged in).

    see attached screen shot.

    Hey Alex,

    Have you fully diagnosed the original woofer? Sometimes you can get lucky and the disconnect is in a terminal or tinsel lead.

    You won’t know the real equivalence until someone can locate (or measure) the TSPs of the original transducer.

    At first glance it seems that the Beyma driver is better suited for a vented/ported cabinet.

    Thank you!

    Relative to the popular tool box brands, its a bargain. Husky is just a house brand from Home Depot.

    However, I did have to buy two, one for each of our two new garage bays. You only get a few chances during a career to kit out fresh shop spaces – you have to take the opportunity to get decent looking gear! 😎

    Here’s a BeoLaterGram for you guys. Last year my office expanded to include a pair of garage laboratory spaces for automotive-sized projects. I thought it was only appropriate to kit it out with a small B&O system from my surplus of gear for background tunes.

    Its a BeoMaster and BeoGram CD 6500 with a pair of 4000s sitting on my 3d printed table stands.

    The type number will be listed on a sticker underneath each amplifier on the bottom of the speaker. Can you tell us more about the condition of the speakers?

    I think the highest price I ever paid for a set of 6633’s was $600 (2015), most recently I found a pair of 6633s for $350 (2023, I think). Both of these sets were original and unrestored.

    I very briefly ran that exact combo for a few months. IIRC my 1202 did not have a phono pre inside so I’m assuming the

    There are two phono inputs on the 3000-2 and after a quick google refresher, it seems one has a phono preamp and the other is a normal aux in designed for turntables that have their own pre etc.

    Ask and you shall receive! I just made a quick version.

    Drill size is 4.2mm diameter, meant to be tapped for the steel stud that is attached to the Penta pedestal itself (M4 – 0.7 thread).

    EDIT – file not able to be attached here to this post for some reason. @BeoWorld is it a format issue? I am trying to attach an stl (mesh file).

    Hey there! Just saw this thread. Man what a throwback! I just crawled my old hard drives and can’t find the file (even though I did find a picture of the printed parts!). That must have been 2015 or so. It’s an easy model, I will just draw it up again later today and make an STL.

    Feel free to PM me directly. I’m not always alerted or aware of threads like this.

    Cheers,

    Nice, and sleek looking for the party too.  Are you simply running Apple Music.app thru the MOTU M2, or something DJ-ier?

    Yeah! These things will definitely raise the profile of the party. I’m not a DJ in the slightest, so I am just bringing a playlist and if people feel like making requests, they can cue them up on the computer instead of a mobile device etc. But yes, Apple Music (iTunes) or Tidal played through the M2 via USB.

    BS 9000. It still delights me every time I use it.

    Now there’s a set of 4000s that need some table stands! Let me print you some bright silver ones 🤠

    After reading some of the responses above, I am having more difficulty than I thought I would with this!

    First gut feeling was BS9K but the BL8000 is a close second. BL5 is a GREAT suggestion as well.

    However I would like to put my vote up for something a little out of left field: the Beo4. I think it is truly my favorite.

    Just doing a small test run of a rig I put together for a friend’s house party. I needed a small stereo rig that I could fly with (checked bag here, though – no batteries) but packed a decent punch. I’ll be running them through the 3.5mm aux from a small Motu sound card connected to my laptop so I can circumvent any app/wifi nonsense. Test run conclusion from my apartment: a pair of BeoSound 2s bring plenty of slam 😎

    Wow, my login credentials still work! I don’t think I’ve posted here in years. I’ll need to refamiliarize (is that a word?) myself with the current scene. Good to see a number of old names still around.

    Holy shit! Mika is back! I seriously did a double take when I saw “tournedos” posted a recent reply. Good to see you around!

    Hey Chris – didn’t realize you had replied! Sorry for the delay.

    Sadly no, I had some re-prioritization of projects and had to push this to the back burner. So sadly, there has not been any progress. I will likely pick this back up later in the year.

    I will definitely be putting my work here when I resume. Thanks for following!

    FYI – problem resolved.  Was having a senior moment! As you mentioned, Nebojsa, it was a matter of the wrong pins. All good now!

    Also, for future reference, here is where the RIAA accessory would mount if it was present in the BM6500. This is on the left edge of the preamp board.

    Thanks, Nebojsa. Usually following the pin labeling on the rean DIN 5 connector is good guidance, but not this time around.

    I did throw on an aux cable from Steve, that one at least works so I will compare pin outs later today!

    Hey guys,

    Struggling to access normal resources in the BeoTech area, these are just loading and loading and loading etc..

    Lot’s of waiting here, just trying to load some basic wiring diagrams so I can make a cable.
