Hi again all, I have a chance to buy a beomaster 4400 which cosmetically is in great shape, all there, v clean etc….apparently it powers up but no further testing been done to it…I am taking this to mean it does not work ! My question is, it it worth a major re-cap etc and if so any idea how much a major internal overhaul would cost approximately? I am in the uk and realise answering this exactly would be impossible but if a rough budget figure might be suggested it would give me an idea if the unit is worth pursuing…like I say, its cosmetically good, powers up but after that, who knows? working on assumption it needs the full treatment inside but I don`t know what this would cost? A ball park figure would def help me…My thanks to you all again for your advice and help…this forum is certainly a major help….cheers…

The Beomaster 4400 remains my favourite one sonically speaking. Entirely worth the effort, and very reliable when it has been properly restored with Beoparts components ☺️
