Hello Joerg,

I agree it could be a capacitor, but also check for any dry solder joints (lötstelle) because of the intermittent nature of the problem.
Good luck!

…Now here is the problem: In spite of everything else working, I cannot get any sound, except for the initial click, out of the Pentas. They work fine with the Beovision 7, and I have connected that via Masterlink to a 1614 box, which is then connected to the AUX on the Beomaster.

The settings on the system are OPTION 2 on both A and V, and I am not sure about the SPEAKER setting, having tried 1,0, and 2, but the display on the Beomaster gives no indication, just a noncommittal blink.

Hello – regarding this Penta problem, if they’re connected to the Beovision they ought to be set to ‘video’ on the switch underneath the amplifier module. If they’re connected to the Beomaster they ought to be set to ‘audio’ via the same switch underneath the amplifier module.

Regarding the connection via the 1614 box, assuming Pentas are connected to the Beovision, check the following details:

1. Power everything off
2. Complete all connections
3. Power on audio and video products
4. Power on 1614 box last
5. Set audio option to ‘0’ (zero)
6. Set video option to ‘2’

Note: you may need a fully wired cable from the 1614 box to the Beomaster ‘Aux/TV’ socket.

Let us know how you get on.

Hi Beoworld, I need to replace the backup battery in my Beomaster 7000 and can’t find the complete procedure. I even downloaded the service manual from the forum (which I believe isn’t complete), but it doesn’t explain anything about it. Can anyone help me please ?

Thanks

Hi Arthur, I too have the same model Beovision and I too have the same issue with Blu-ray discs – albeit mine has just started being a bit reluctant to read some discs but will read others. I fear it’s only a metter of time before it ceases reading BD’s altogether though so I’m keen to find out how you resolve this.

I plan to shine a light inside the drive unit to see if any of the optics are reachable with slim cotton bud and some IPA. If I find a suitable solution or fix I’ll let you know.
(We’re both dreading it being down to a faulty capacitor…I know)

Looks like a really cool clean setup there @Giorgioni – very nice indeed! I love the BV26. I still use one too, good sound and a pleasingly simple set to use.

This sounds intriguing, exciting and a really worthwhile project.
But also way beyond my level of experience or expertise 😵‍💫

I hope you find a suitable partner in project-crime.

Bonus — can you find the spurious magnet hanging out in the attached photo? Pretty sure it was left over from someone servicing it before; the actual magnet inside the electromagnetic relay was not missing so this is an ‘extra’!

Unfortunately I  didn’t know how to record and post a clip. After researching and concluding I was not qualified to work on this deck, and there not being an option for local service, I decided to put it back in storage today. I lifted the platter to tighten the shipping locks and it turned out I had not loosened them when bringing the deck back in service. I loosened them up and the thing is nice and quiet as it should be.                              I feel a bit like an idiot, but am glad it worked out ok.

Don’t feel silly @Lloyd it’s an easy mistake to make.
Plus you can rest assured someone out there will read your response to your own thread and check their own transport screws only to find they had the same issue. It’s all helpful 😃

I have a question regarding the sound modes. I purchased a Beovision 9000 TV with an MPAV9000. What surprises me is that every time I switch on the CD, I don’t get any sound because the sound mode on the TV is set to 2, meaning stereo. However, since I only have the TV’s centre speaker, I have to switch it to Sound 1 either via the MPAV or change it to mono in the TV menu. Is there a way to save the sound mode permanently to 1? Or do I have to change it manually every time I want sound?

Hi @ZimmerBiest
I had a look across the older Beoworld forums and found this which may help you understand a little more about the capabilities of your cool AV9000 screen 😀
It would appear you wuold have to select the audio mode each time you switch from video to audio.

Hi both, just read this with interest.
My Beocord 6500 is also misbehaving. I’ve attached a video of what happens when I use Rew/FF or in this example Auto Record:

Oh. Wait. I can’t upload a video.

Well it sounds very similar. The head and pinch roller engage, a ‘painful’ whirring noise comes from the Beocord and the unit shuts down.

And because I have a Beolink set-up the BS6500 shuts down along with the BV7-40 and Beolabs 😄

The Beocord has new belts (a few months old) which I bought from Danish Sound Parts.

Any ideas? And @Grgur Pauker did you find a solution?

Thanks Mr Multicare!

So much taken in, learned some new tricks, met a glorious ‘samling af’ new Beofriends (go me with my Danish!) and have spent the latter part of this evening going through my photos. We should have a bumper set between us – something hopefully the other members can enjoy.
And finally, I must confess, I completely forgot to look through my ‘useful guide’ you made and handed out at the start of the visit…I found it in my pocket on the train back to Copenhagen. It was perfect and would have answered the same question I kept asking myself each day – where to next? Such a donut!

Genuine thanks for putting it all together and giving us all the best (ultimate nerd-out) visit!

We saw so much!!

Skål!

Hi Pete,

Try looking at Danish Sound Parts. This link takes you to their BC2200 page: https://www.dksoundparts.com/product-category/beocenter/beocenter-2200/
Hopefully this helps to solve your problem.

Good luck,

Hi Nick, I cannot salute your match-up enough. Penta 3 love the BC 9300 and I like the sound of your streamer connection with Apple Express too!
Regarding the stand-by opton it’s something B&O designed into their products from this era, so it should be the best way. But I too go for periods where I shut down everything for a few days (Penta 2 and BS6500), often midweek, to allow components to cool off. Whether it’s right or not I don’t know, but it feels like I’m giving the boards and caps a break.
I’ve no idea whether it’s effective or not though.

Cue the next responder….

We might be in the same train 😆

Carriage 62. Seat 45.
Should be in 61 but my fellow passenger said it doesn’t matter so I stayed put.

I’m too comfy to move 😄. Had a few wines….
See you on the platform 🥳😎
