To my knowledge there is no actual “Update” in components. I mean is your purpose is to use your deck as you used it when new, the changes are more “service” than “upgrade”: replacement of ageing components, belts, pulley I think and the plinth (of no use for you as yours looks good) and the lid. All this can be done by yourself if you’re a little handy and with the help of this forum and other internet help that is plenty.
B&O also change the wires and add an RIAA preamp. It does not add streaming capabilty by itself, it just provide a line level output that allows the deck to be connected to line-in/aux-in of beosound devices like Balance or Core that will then allow distribution via Network Link.
In a nutshell, all mechanics and electronics are more or less easily serviceable. To me, not really worth the amount B&O ask for (but it is the price of tranquility for B&O client that can afford it).
What remains is and always will be, the cartridge. The starting point.
Location: Paris FranceIt’s not about the brackets, it’s about the lamellas. They are rounded and must be L shaped at the top. I think they’re also very thin (not deep). All this to say that this solution involves a lot of woodwork and is certainly not 50€. But indeed the result has nothing to compare with my cheap solution.
Location: Paris FranceIl n’y a pas de réponse simple : taille, prix, disponibilité sur le marché de l’occasion, gouts personnels…
J’espérais beaucoup les 8000 qui sont “censées” etre bien meilleures que les 6000 et pourtant j’ai été tres déçu et suis toujours resté un peu sur ma faim. J’ai par contre été très agreablement surpris par le Beolab 3500, physiqement proche des 6000 et qui pourtant n’est qu’un simple HP “link” donc secondaire… Et puis il y aussi les 4000, fabuleuses, toutes petites, classiques B&O…
Donc un son de qualité “optimale” ? Optimal par rapport à quoi ? Essayez les 6000, ajustez le son, écoutez… Entre temps épluchez les catalogues entre 2000 et 2020 et comparez aux prix de l’occasion, fouillez aussi le forum, très riche d’enseignements de toute sorte.
Vous n’avez pas fini d’y perdre le bras !
Location: Paris FranceBonjour Pierre et bienvenue sur Beoworld,
Il s’agit d’un simple changement de connecteurs : Les prises DIN ont été remplacées par des RJ45 quand les appareils ont commencé à se miniaturiser. À priori aucune incidence sur le son. Vous pouvez donc utiliser un adaptateur RJ45 vers DIN femelle avec un cable Powerlink standard ou bien vous procurer un cable Powerlink RJ45 d’un coté et Powerlink DIN de l’autre. La seconde enceinte peut etre chainée à la première ou bien reliée au Beosound Moment directement sans que ça ne fasse la moindre difference.
En revanche attention les Balance et A9, sont des Beosound aussi c’est à dire des systèmes indépendant qui integrents leur propres sources et/ou capables de lire les morceaux stockés sur un serveur local. Donc un peu doublon de votre Moment. Le Beosound Balance peut de memoire etre utilisé comme une Beolab classique (à verifier quand meme) mais pour autant que je sache pas le A9.
Location: Paris FranceIf you still need to connect airplay/cromecast as you mention in your first post you could always try if the 1611 coverter will give you an extra input or two
The Beosound Ouverture in the cabinet as since then be replaced by a Playmaker for streaming, including radios. It drives the BL8000 but also a Beolink Passive and a pair of C40 in the back. The Ouverture you see in the pictures is just there for when/if I need to listen to a tape or a CD. And also because I have no other place to store it!
Location: Paris FranceSorry, I forgot I never posted pictures with the feet. Here they are!
Location: Paris FranceThe 5mm model was developed by another member from my design, to fit local wood supply so I can’t really say. Nevertheless, there is indeed a strong link between curve, depth, wide, number of lamellas and their thickness, so it make sense the curve is more important.
And yes it will result in a less thinner speaker. To what extend ? I dont know.
Location: Paris FranceCongratulations too.
First thing to try would be the 5v trick on the MCL port. Once Again, they guy on reddit swear it works but we have yet to see!
Location: Paris FranceThe 4mm clamps are designed for 4mm thick wood bits.
The 5mm clamps are designed for 5mm thick wood bits easier to find in nothern countries it seems.
Location: Paris France1-No
2-What do you mean by “power has been removed”? If you mean unplugged from mains, yes it revert to some sort of default setting. If you mean “just turned off” the setting should be remembered.
3-I don’t know but normally it should at least toggle between track number, time elapsed AND disc name if the disc has been named.
4-I dont know again. I think the power switch was about some sort of european regulation or a thing like that.
Cheers.
Location: Paris FranceLooking at the background, I wonder how many ears you do have, Millemissen! 😀
Location: Paris FranceLooking forward to what that will bring to this thread
Precisely the reason why its good we dont live in the save neighborhood, we would being consider as the strange black box brotherhood with rituals far into the late night…
Location: Paris FranceUnfortunately I don’t have an ML-equipped BeoSound or Ouverture to test it with!
Ahahahahahaha (sadistic evil laugh…)
Yes, you have a lot of fancy beocom triangles under table remotes, BUT YOU DON’T HAVE A ML EQUIPPED BEOSOUND!
Guess what? I DO!
There’s a justice on this world!
Et toc!
Location: Paris Franceso how about a new thread title of ‘BeoLink Converter 1611 Innovative Configurations’?
Done now!
Location: Paris FranceYes, you have to zip it. But it also need to be less than 8 Mb so it may not work at all.
Location: Paris FranceThats what happen when you use a Frenglish term in an English talk ;D
Location: Paris Franceyes, even the CD
Wow! Would you please mind sharing a CD disk image?
Location: Paris FranceWhat is the white pole with a golden sphere at the end? Nice setup!
😀
It’s the close-up rope end of the lamp cord (the Ikea modulable ball I guess…). look at the reflection on the TV screen!
Location: Paris France20 February 2023 at 09:13 in reply to: Beosound 9000 sledge touches the back of the CDs – The solution #44005Bonjour Pierre and Welcome to Beoworld,
Thank you for taking time for posting again despite the issues you had with your fist attempt.
The rocker twisted arm was indeed an old story and the first suspect when the sledge is scratching, until someone advised that it can’t be bent so easily and started to look more at the damper.
Parts being if not rare, often difficult to find at your local dealer (in France at least) the shrinking tube is welcome. Please let us now how it turns aft some week of use.
