And I have realised that I never answered this question! Yes, the cable connection was just the RF, hence sound was also transferred and worked beautifully.
When researching the sale I found that it is quite easy to modify the Atari 2600 to provide composite (or even RGB or s-video) outputs, which may be useful for more modern TVs without analogue tuners.
Ah of course. RF was so easy back in the BBC/Commodore/Spectrum days.

This is a great update! I too remember oggling the AV9000 and trying imagine what films might sound like – I never had the pleasure of hearing a Pro-Logic surround sound film on one since.
Enjoy it @Sergi0 🙌Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Just clicked around the site and everything loads much faster now. I’m using a iPhone with Safari.
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Sounds very exciting! Best of luck with the move and looking forward to some fresh photos of the new digs 😎👍
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Hello, for what it’s worth I find this forum the calmest and most thorough place to discuss B&O and to resolve niggles with the euipment I enjoy at home.
I’m quite old fashioned I suppose – I still play tapes, records and cds daily. And I play FM radio too. I have a small collection of my favourite music systems and I love my Beovision 7.I’ve tried the Faceplace group and find it a very scattery and inconsistent place. Lots of ego and lots of slagging B&O off – from what I can see mostly by people who don’t have any passion for the brand.
Beoworld is an excellent resource and a glorious library of interesting projects and documented resolutions to common problems.
I would love to see a rebirth of ‘web forums’ – I think enough time has passed for people to realise that open social media platforms often encourage the nay-sayers and the discourteous to flourish.
Please keep on with developing our beloved Beoworld.
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Hi Steven, have you tried the old ‘press AV and see if it works’ trick?
Sometimes I find the very same with my 3500 system. My Dad too with his. Happens every now and again.
Quick tap of AV on the Beolink 1000 and all works as normal.Julian
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Hello Mark,
I’m coming from Kent. I’ve decided to fly to Copenhagen and train to Struer. The main reason being the scenery from the train will be great and a wander about Copenhagen on the way home sounds perfect.
I looked at flying to Billund and renting a car to drive up to Struer but the flights aren’t plentiful and I’ve driven from Billund before and really struggle with not speeding on those gorgeous roads! 😄Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:I know this isn’t the best solution as such, but keep an eye out for a BV7-mk5. I’ve had the BV7 32″ non-hdmi, the mk4 40″ non-hdmi and currently have a mk5 40″ with hdmi and blueray and it’s superb! You won’t miss your old BV once you’ve seen the faster smoother image on the mk5.
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Silly question maybe but have you tried Multicare?
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Congratulations to everyone drawn so far 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Looking forward to meeting you all later in the year 🙂
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Hi Sergi0,
I there any chance something wasn’t seated perfectly when you assembled the screen and speaker?
Have the two elements been unjoined and reconnected since you first rebuilt it?

Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Hi Martin,
I have bought from Quality Dream Audio in the past. A BGCD6500 a few years ago.
The cd drawer scratched the cabinet as it opened and closed – when I contacted them to query it I was simply told it was under £200 for a reason and I shouldn’t expect perfection if I only want to pay a little 😂I haven’t been back since.
They do appear to shift a lot though. Perhaps they’ve improved?Good luck with your search.
In my opinion I would buy a Beogram you like the look of and use it.
Enjoy your old records for 12-18 months. By then you’ll know where the sound is lacking and what you want more of – which in turn will guide you to your next Beogram 👍Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:I guess sound transfered via that same cable too? Bet those tones sounded top through the BV 👍
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Hi, nice to hear you’re wanting to add to your B&O collection.
danishsoundparts dot com has a comprehensive catalogue of parts to help repair/service/maintain all types of BeogramCD.There is a well-recited mantra that the 90’s cd players from B&O sound quite clean and clinical. While the older players have a warmer and fuller sound. But it’s up to you really.
Personally I love the 6500 and 4500 BeogramCD machines.
They look so cool.CD-X is an interesting model.
And there’s always Beosound 9000 if you really want a piece of visual theatre in your home 😎Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:…..fingers are still very much crossed 😄
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:That’s better with the attachment now @Guy 👍
Location: Kent, UKFavourite Product: Beosystem 6500My B&O Icons:Excellent! Enjoy your Beocenter 😍😍😍😍🍾🥳
