        Hi Lee, Keith,

        Sad and good news then.

        I have now been a member for 15 years and I must say that Beoworld has been a good part of my everyday life for all those years.

        I know all the efforts you put into this beautiful project, and let’s hope that the database, the product section with the invaluable manuals and forum will keep going for a long time.

        Does the Multicare person have a name?

        Best wishes,

        Jacques

          Hi Steve,

          A cheap Beogram is always worth it.

          My best deal was a € 80 Beogram 4000 with a $ 70 SMMC20EN – brand new.

                For me it was TR25.

                  That’s what I’ve had on my Beogram 4000 for many years. Thoroughly recommended!

                    I love the M70s. Definitely something to look for. Tim wrote an excellent article in HFN&RR a few years ago.

                      1. Hi,

                      What Adam says above. Have it fixed, it’s a superb amplifier.

                        Hi,

                        My list regarding sound quality comprises:

                        — 1-Beomaster 4400

                        — 2-Beomaster 6000

                        — 3-Beomaster 8000

                        Then the Beolab 5000 + Beomaster 5000 of 1967.

                        The other ones are nice too but not as good as the above. To me they are the best and are reliable once restored properly.

                        I have a penchant for the sheer bulk and elegance of the 8000 though ☺️

                          Hi,

                          It would be really nice to have an Excel chart with all the SN.

                          We have that for Quad, Philips…

                          Martin? ?

                            Hi,

                            I had a bad motor once that had not enough power to lift the lid, on a CDX.

                            A new motor solved the problem.

                            Does the motor stop altogether or do you hear it struggling ?

                              Hi Derek,

                              Long time no see!

                              Have you replaced the blue cap?

                                Of course, if you can find one.

                                  Hi,

                                  Or the Terminal 8000, of course. But no stepped volume drops or reset! But it does work fine.

                                    The prescaler chip, yes, a no brainer. A classic failure: many of us have had this fault. Beware there are fakes around, especially from Asia. Here for the real deal:

                                          It won’t work. Completely different contexts, with incompatible characteristics.

                                          Are you trying to save money or do you want a great deck ruined by a DIY mess?

                                          Buy a new cartridge from Soundsmith and enjoy the music ?
