Interesting idea! The Beolink 7000 has a similar conductive strip between the board and the transparent display. I hope one day someone cracks this problem!

[MrRoast]

Have to say @matador – that *clack* when the magnet connects is terrifying ?

Nervous times adjusting, but all moving freely now – waiting for the epoxy to cure.

[MrRoast]

It seems like it’s becoming more sporadic when playing CDs – I have a laser unit from another BS1, maybe I’ll swap it and see wha happens!

[MrRoast]

Thanks @matador – I’ve been looking for a set of these for a while and am looking forward to getting them restored and connected to my Beomaster 6000!

[MrRoast]

So it looks like I’ve got to do my best @matador impression and create a glueing jig as two of the 8 woofers have detached magnets 🙁

Can I ask what glue you used to reattach them?

For the other 6 I have added a bead of epoxy round the join, as I did with my S45-2s, to hopefully stabilise them.

[MrRoast]

Thanks @ajames – that’s where my mind was going in the absence of any specific brackets!

[MrRoast]

@matador is there a specific way to mount these speakers on a wall? I’ve searched but can’t find any specific info on brackets, fixings etc.

[MrRoast]

Great thread – just acquired a set of four P50s and look forward to seeing what state they’re in when I collect them!

[MrRoast]

That’s my concern also – I have the wall bracket for the Beomaster 1200, however, the base of that is metal, not plastic like the Beocord.

[MrRoast]

Thanks Henrik! My investment in a 3D printer has paid off – even knocked up some studs to keep the baseplate on!

[MrRoast]

I’ve messaged you Henrik

[MrRoast]

Thank you Martin ?

[MrRoast]

Thanks artig – I used to have something similar for my iPod back in the day, however, I’m looking for a solution that doesn’t rely on an external power source.

[MrRoast]

Thanks Martin – I’m guessing that’s why the Beolit 600 ‘dies’ when bluetooth streaming is initiated when running on batteries.

The Beolit 1000 works (so assume not positive ground?) – but there is noise that isn’t there when the module is powered separately – could this be ground related?

[MrRoast]

Very nice! No idea what makes that particular 1500 special, but I grow more envious of your collection with every picture! 😀

[MrRoast]

Fantastic – thanks!

[MrRoast]

Here’s hoping!

I read you 3D printed slider buttons for your 600 – I don’t suppose you would mind sharing the file? I have a 400 missing all its buttons!

[MrRoast]

Thanks Matador – I’ll have a dig around the old forum for your posts, I think I remember seeing the Beocom 6000 thread.

I know the easy thing would be connect an Airport express to the DIN in (as I did with my own BS10 years ago) but I’d like to have something self powered and ‘internal’.

It’s less about the sound quality and more the ability to make something 50+ years old still relevant today – and less dependant on software than today’s B&O!

[MrRoast]

Thanks Henrik – I was looking around for one with the correct specs!

[MrRoast]

Finally got my hands on a Beopower 1000
