Re: Beovox 5700

Hi all, digging up this thread because i am starting to restore 2 sets of 5700's i have and it does make sense to open them up first, before ordering (wrong) caps: turns out 1 pair is type 6229 and sn 14201/14048 and the other pair also type 6229 and sn 28034/28013. i checked 1 woofer (all 4 look the same) and this is an AD1056/W8 (completely covered with white powder btw, aluminum oxide ??) i checked all filters, all the same but very different from the data shown in this thread: the woofer

Re: Beovox 5700 Tweeter replacement

Interesting...but i am always very suspicious about these remakes. what i miss on the site is any technical info (test or measurement results, specs) to show it is actually identical. In general: once you order enough of whatever you want reproduced in the Far East, they make it for you, but never the same, it looks the same...:), google on the fake B&O A8 earplugs... i am sure if you bring your HF2000 to Chinatown Bangkok they can fix it for you (and glue in a replace,ent coil with the correct

Beovox M70 pair

Anyone interested in a pair of M70's ? Not often offered, these are technically ok (and no foam so no rotting problems), cabinets are ok too but one is more pale than the other, probably because of sunlight. So that may need some tlc :) No stands, no cables, but i can make those to specs at extra costs. Shipping cost within Europe would be around 40 euros (in 2 separate parcels) and i have pics on request. Based in NL and i ask 75,- for the pair.

Re: Beovox 5700 Tweeter replacement

Hi, i don't know if you found the answer by now, but...the tweeter is a Celestion one and i heard from a local vintage speaker expert that the 5700's are wanted largely because of this tweeter: hard to find (as they were used in some high end speakers) and thus pricey. However: i had one not working on my 5700's and it was quite easy to fix (resoldering the wire to the voice coil). So: depending on what is wrong with it, it may very well be worthwhile to fix it or to get it fixed ('not

Re: Problem with my B & O Beosound Oeverture with radio/CD/ Caseetedeck.

Doen de schuifdeuren het wel ? en de cd clamper, gaat die op/neer als je op Load drukt ? en zoals gezegd: probeer hem eens in ern andere optie te zetten, en zien of hij reageert (led 1x knippert bij instellen), dat zegt ook al wat over hoe 'dood' hij is... Het Engelstaiige publiek gaat hier niet lezen (Dutch forum), daarvoor is het Workbench forumdeel :)

Beomaster 5000 with MCP

This BM5000 seems to work fine, as well as the panel. of course not new anymore, it has some marks i would say looks: 6,5 /10, but i don't expect the new price either :) i will gladly send a photo on request, it seems impossible to place it here from an ipad. can be shipped anywhere for additional postage cost, for the BM and MCP i am asking 125,- euros.

Re: Problem with my B & O Beosound Oeverture with radio/CD/ Caseetedeck.

Hello Anne, i assume you don't speak Dutch so i will reply in En: did the Ouverture do this just like that or was there any change in the setup or whatever.. to me it sounds like it is in a wrong (remote) option. what also could be the problem is a keyboard fault: the contacts give up sometimes and make 1 key "depressed" which blocks the rest of the keyboard. try setting it in audio option 0 or 1 first and see if that can be done at all.
