      Hi guys Something wrong with STL file. When I import in cura or other slicer. dimensions are small, like 2mm in hight small. Also STLs in folder are corrupted and wont open. Can you resend files please Thanks and regards

      Hi,

      Read the whole thread. depending on your software you may need to scale it by 10’s factor.

      The STL’s have been checked tonight and look ok. Given no other member have report problem and some have even already printed them, I let you investigate from your side.

      Regards.

            I am using cheap $80 Wiim streamers

            I have a few Wiim minis – they’re great little streamers.

            Hi alls and apologies to the OP for interrupting.

            Could those Wiim mini stream from their aux in to usual airplay device like Airport express boxes? From the user guide I understand they can from Wiim to Wiim but I wonder if an usual Airplay network can catch the stream also. Thank you.

              Hi,

              Here and here

              I believe (but I don’t know for sure) that MK2 with traditional dustcap woofer sounds better.

                I have a second defect Ouverture (Tape and CD broken),

                Hi And Apologies for the English language.

                Tape and Cd broker may be both an easy fix: belt for the cassette and deep cleaning for the CD. Those units appears to be very reliable…

                Just in case…

                  A relay’s contacts can corrode over the decades especially when not hermetically sealed. This introduces a variable resistance which causes the speed variation. One can affect a temporary fix by carefully cleaning the contacts since the cover is removable; however, this is only a temporary fix and its very easy to bend the thin contact supports making it worse.

                  Hi Mark and everybody,

                  I’m feed up with all those album reissue at 45 rpm but when I found one I really wanted, I thought I must have something done about my 45′ speed problem.

                  Still not brave enough to replace the relay I decide to clean it with a strip of paper soaked in electric contact cleaner like Dillen taught us all.

                  Speed problem solved for now! Thank you everybody and especially Mark and Martin.

                      I got my copy yesterday: it’s more orange than the vivd red I thought it gonna be and the sleeve more matt than  YannChris one.

                      Anyway, it did go into a plastic sleeve protector that does not allow to open the gatefold.

                      So I compiled the instructions notes into this mini guide. If anybody is interested you just need to print it recto-verso on a plain sheet of paper (A4, but letter should do) and fold it.

                      Hope this helps…

                              Hi, hello and thank you….   😉

                              You need a proof of ownership (other than just showing the actual device) and and friendly B&O dealer. As far as I know, other that that it’s now a brick.

                              You’re welcome.

                                1974/75 is correct. Martin

                                Martin, do you know something about this yellow label transparent record on the Beogram brochure?

                                  Hi alls,

                                  As Martin said, I drilled holes through the breaks (1mm), slipped sewing needles soaked in cyano glue and let it rest overnight, then cut the needles.

                                  Sad the deck is useless, but at least it makes me practices things like that.

                                  Hope this helps.

                                    Hi Gary and welcome to Beoworld,

                                    As a fan of anything in paper B&O branded and especially brochures, I’m happy to be the first to answer to your post.

                                    Thank you very much for your contribution. Thoses brochure are, at least for me, unseen until now and very special since they do feature a lot of items I own and love.

                                    In the next days, if you dont object I will work on your PDFs to cut them to size.

                                    Thank you again, for me, this is christmas before the day of it.

                                    All the best.

                                      Hi Leo, good to see you back,

                                      Got the same issue on MK1: one of the woofer make a slight scratching noise, not always, not strong but sometimes, and noticeable when you know it’s there.

                                      I have inspected the driver and it has no visible sign of wear, specially on the surround.
                                      I noticed that when I very carefully and lightly touch the surround speaker at 7 o clock the rattling stops. Then for me the cure was to attach a little soft foam piece there. No noise since then.

                                      I’ve recentererd a magnet on 4 P50 drivers that were obviously stuck. I don’t feel like doing the same with an 8000 driver. And changing it implies readjusting the whole speaker if I understand correctly, so not viable to me too.

                                          Has it ever lift before or is it a new fault?

                                          I’ve one of those that don’t lift. Under the table there is a little “piston” that push the plastic disc where the arm rest (through the little screw). The piston is stuck and the whole thing dont move anymore. Maybe you ca start from here.

                                            Also, what do you mean by “quite damage”?

                                            Unless it is knocked on an edge, I believe Beolab 4000 grills are the easiest to reclothe.
                                            And even if…
