[quote user="Clakke"] I did not know there were two versions. I am reading the version that consists of six books with about 800 pages per book. It is old used books that my father bought for me in a second-hand bookshop. Clakke [/quote] Yep - the abridged version was put together by Churchill himself, and is a single volume of about 900+

The other drivers work. I'll try with a 9v battery and report back!

[quote user="Clakke"] I am reading Sir Winston Churchill´s "The second world war" right now. See if I can keep up with your humour after that . [/quote] Clakke - randomly I am reading this too. Are you reading the abridged single-volume version, or the original multiple-volume edition?

No Peter - I just connected the speaker up to the Beomaster, and when playing I placed the multimeter across the terminals with the spade connectors still in place. I'll try with a battery to check the coil. Will anything do, like, say a 1.5v cell?

Thanks Peter Just put a multimeter across the terminals and got nothing, so assume it's a fault in the crossover. Is this a capacitor problem?

[quote user="Clakke"] It also seems quite clear that a good speaker can age with pride in opposite to Video protocols or heavy digital electronics like a DVD player. There are several examples on good old speakers that still are going strong. I believe that B&O´s example is Penta, though I have not had the opportunity to listen to

Evening All Just been inspecting the foam surrounds on my MC120.2s as I know they need refoaming due to foam rot. I was playing a track and noticed that one of the woofers is dead.

Welcome to Beoworld Clakke Great first post and really, really interesting to get an insight into the mind of a current customer. I wonder though why when you're so aware of the movement in video technology (you mention S-VHS etc. in your post) that you went and bought a two-way speaker that's design is now approaching twenty years old in the

Brian - all I can add to this is that the classic European GT car was built to traverse Europe on motorways that always had no speed limit! In these cases I can see why a big engine turning at relatively low revs is appealing, but in the US the major routes can be straights for endless miles yet have a restrictive speed limit and always have. Such is

Austin - the shame is that it has ever been thus in Europe. Most of our cars have never had engine sizes over 2000cc. I've owned a couple of bigger engined classic cars (3500cc MG BGT V8 and a 2500cc Triumph TR6) and these cars were older than me and were considered big engines back in the day! Back in the early 70s the oil crisis did for manufacturers
