Welcome to Beoworld ! Do you have the little red standby dot ? Martin

Great ! Yes, they are wonderful vintage speakers. Martin

Mounting instructions with photos and (english) text can be included with the belts. It's a 30 minute job and all you need is a philips type screwdriver or two. There can be other faults than the belts but if the belts were not already replaced, they definitely would need so by now. Can you hear the motor run if you load a tape, put your ear to

I'm sure the lamps are the same in the Beocenter 7000. Apart from the turntable section, it's practically the same machine. If that's ordinary bubblewrap, it's even worse for static electricity. Get an antistatic workplace. You don't have to convert your whole livingroom to muppet-lab but buy a mat with a wrist band. They are meant

I had a look too but no luck here. I seem to remember that it differs somehow from the BG 3000/5005 etc. but I could be wrong. Martin

I don't remember the exact values, but I'm sure that 14V is incorrect for the lamps ( I don't think that voltage is present on this board at all) and 1W is probably too much. (Why do you mount them if you are not sure they are correct ?) It's correct with the 47uF bipolars, though. I can supply correct caps and lamps if you need. A small

Why don't we all buy some and claim our money back because we received illegal copies ? Surely, a bunch a nice Paypal claims would stop this man. Martin

I don't remember exactly but isn't that the end of tape sensor (optical) ? I think it senses signal gaps using the playback head. Martin

Now you point my attention to it, I can see that one of the Beograms have a lighter color to the rear alu strip. In severe cases of sun bleaching, the black anodizing can lose some of it's color and the lettering will become very faint. Maybe that could also explain the fainted tinting of the dustcover. A couple more good photos would be interesting
