Hi all,

I tested the set and bought it.

By chance, the heads are not worn out, so I can play the tapes.

But Chartz was right, idler wheels must be hard and the BeOcord sounds as a BOeing 🙂

As my project is to digitalize the tapes it is not so annoying.

By chance, the line-out works but the plug is wired in a strange way, as input and output pins seem to be reversed.

So to connect it to my Beocenter 9000, I have to fiddle with Din/RCA/Din adapters.

Tomorrow I’ll check the speaker outputs.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Hello Martin,

Thanks for the info, my mistake is corrected.

Do you have any clue for the remaining problems?

Does the reading of the tork-meter tape video shows something useful?

Kind regards,

Yann.

Update:

I exchanged the belt with a one bought to Dillen a few years ago but never used.

Unfortunately with no complete result : fluctuations while reading are gone but the other defects stay unchanged.

Any clue?

Kind regards,

Yann.

[YannChris]

And did the videos give you other clues?

[YannChris]

Thanks Chartz,

I just had a look and these parts are for Beocord 9000 and I have a Beocenter 9000

Are you site they are adapted to my set?

Kind regards,

Yann

Thanks Chartz,
What do you mean by tyres?

Kind regards,

Yann.

Thanks Chartz 🙂

The set is proposed at 60 Euros, I wonder if the risk/price ratio is good on such an old machine.

Regards,

Yann.

Thanks Omminp,

I’ll check heads very carefully when I’ll test the set.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Not relevant reply, sorry.

Thanks Stotty,

Hi Stotty,

I’m in Brittany too, near Lorient.

Having some vintage products which need repair, would you tell me where did you send your TV for service?

Please, excuse my intrusion in your thread.

Kind regards,

Yann.

Hi,

I’m interested in this mod (check your Personal Messages).
Kind regards,

Beobuddy,

Are you talking of the new white foam or of the foam-tape?

 

[YannChris]

Thanks Beobuddy.

Aren’t you afraid that over time the foam will disintegrate and cause a new “Foam-Rot” crisis?

 

 

[YannChris]

Beobuddy,

On your picture, I notice that you replaced the foam-tape placed on the sides of the column.

Are they part of the foam-kit?

If not, what did you use?

Regards,

Yann.

[YannChris]

Hi Botty,

Happy to see you back  🙂
