    Hi guys,

    Thank you all or your interest.

    As suggested by a member I’ll upload the file to thingiverse or similar platform for public access. I’ll also try to contact Christian Leicht who as a portal with printable B&O parts.

    Will do it in the next days, along with a quick notice for assembly.

    Could anybody make a quick recap of the different headphones and their differences?

    I can’t see clearly in the lineup and struggle to understand the difference between an HX and a Portal. I mean, I know one is intend for music and the other for games but what does it mean in real life if you listen to music with a Portal or watch TV with an HX?

    In the case of the H95, I believe it’s all about finishing and sound quality certainly above the average lineup but even that I’m not sure.

    A pensum would help, Thanks in advance.

    Hi Steve,

    That is the kind of partnership I was referring to. I should have mentioned it.

    Sorry and thank you for your continuous help and support.

    Hi,

    I can’t say if its related to MK’s but early BS3000 have small clamper and later, big clamper.

    For the features I can’t say either, sorry.

    Hi Rudy,

    I’m here using my “Moderator superpowers” but be certain I’ talking as an usual member.

    Your various announcements are interresting and welcome because they may be useful for the community and specially BV7 or Beolab owners.

    But if this enthusiast forum will be used as an advertising, marketing or aftersales support platform, please consider getting in touch with the forum runner and start some sort of partnership.

    It’s kind of “unbalanced” to use the large footprint of the forum to make business without “giving back” in return. As a businessman you should know those things have a cost.

    In the meantime, post like the three I’ve blocked will be systematically send to moderation for further examination.

    I hope you and the other forum members will understand this.

    Regards.

    Usually, it starts with one line of dots that disappear followed by more and more.
    And/or the screen contrast fading until being not readable anymore.
    And obviously, screen broken or leaking.

    As you said, pressing the bottom of the screen where the zebra strip is can help sometimes but not always. I tried to carefully clean the strip and tighten it but it didn’t help to bring back some screens to life, so if you have any tip it would greatly help a lot of us I think!

    Hi,

    Idiot question: did you try with (a lot of very) different discs? If no, maybe it is related to the “density” of data on the disc? I think I’v read somewhere that the specs on CD’s have evolved with time and some early decks may have problems reading more recent discs. I’ve got a deck that is unable to play any burned CD’s that can be read without problem on my BS9000.

    Worth a try.

    Looks like they sense something that tells the door to stay opened.
    Do you know how to remove the doors and the black acrylic panels?
    if so, try a good cleaning of all components, doors, panels and the sensors you will immediately see (4 littles black pearls into a trapezoidal housing, pointed to the center of the unit.

    I really can’t get why people is able to come in for the fist time and ask for help without saying at least “hello/thank you”. Sorry it falls on you, but this is something that really wonders me each time.

    That said:
    – there is no such thing as “closing sensor”. it’s just a timeout. If the sensor that triggers the doors opening doesn’t detect movement or something in their field, the doors will closed.
    – you don’t tell us if the doors close when you help them, which will point a mechanical problem.
    – Then if they close, that will be, as already said and by easiest to solve, 1-clean with alcohol and carefully lubricate with silicon. 2-change the belt. 3-Align the doors (search old forum for details).

    Hope this helps.

    Aïe, Aïe, Aïe, RIAA’s…

    Between the cheap Chineses, the expensive ones, the not so convenient and those who should but don’t and on top of that the dark shadow of the “not that audiophile” ones that may ruin the rendering of your expensive MMC. It’s a real nightmare. When you add the grounding problems and even worse, the need to board it in the cabinet.

    That said I don’t understand why nobody recreated the B&O RIAA preamp the was optional with some Beograms: Wasn’t it made of common components?

    Hi Guy,

    I’ve tried to participate to your topic by amending it with Beoline 5000 equivalent.
    Unfortunately I stalled after the red button key equivalent 🙂

    Anyway, maybe a little out of topic do you know how to trigger A.AUX from the 5000?

    This is to manually switch the inputs on a Playmaker. Beside auto-detect (that sometimes fails), Airplay is triggered by A.MEM (A.TAPE on the BL5000) and the analog input with A.AUX. and for that last I can’t find any equivalent on the BL5000.

    N.B.: I could use a Beo4 but I find so stylish to have that BL5000… 🙂

    Hi and welcome to Beoworld.

    You need to “add” the controls in the beo4 list of soft keys:

    Press red dot and list simultaneously, the screen should then display “Option?”.
    Press List again, the screen should then display “Add?”.
    Press Go, now you can cycle all the soft keys available by pressing the List key.
    When you have found the soft key you’re looking for, press Go.
    The control will now be available by pressing the List key.

    You can also reorder the soft keys by moving them to the top one by one.

    The Beo4 manual is widely available on the internet and explain the detailled procedure.

    Hope this helps.
