[quote user="Peter "] Have had both - for a big room, I would have the S120s but the BL3s are a lovely small speaker. Played at high volumes, the S120s are superior but at normal and low volumes, the BL3s are hard to beat. [/quote] I agree with Peter here, I can only add that my personal preference would be the 120's but I'm a known

I need a Terminal 5000 remote controller for a friend. If anyone has one for sale please PM me with a price including shipping to the UK. Chris.

This is normal - all beograms from this era onwards are very bouncy. B&O call it the anti vibration system or something. Chris.

Martin had some made in stainless steel, I'm sure he still has some. Chris.

The tacho disc is fitted round the "hub" underneath the black subplatter. It is about 3" to 4" in diameter & all you will be able to see is the outermost part of the strobe ring. I don't have a BG8000 anymore so cannot post a photo but you can see it in the service manual - section 4-1 & part number 0016 on the exploded

The BL5000 will be fine with a BM7000 & offer 2 way communication - right up until the point where you accidentally drop it & it stops working, they aren't particularly robust I'm afraid. Other options are :- Beolink 1000, MCP6500/5500, Beo4/5/6 & of course the Beolink 7000. Chris.

Hi nettrain & welcome to Beoworld. This is more than likely a tacho disc problem. The BG8000 has a strobe/tacho disc under the subplatter which is part of the speed regulation system. The early ones were fitted with a printed celluloid affair which will now be disintegrating & likely to be the case with yours. This was remedied in later versions

[quote user="9 LEE"] I'm sure we could all have a moan about where we come from though... and how typically British of me to have 'Post5k' as a moan..

Thanks Martin. If you find one let me know how much inc' postage & I'll let the owner of these know. Chris.

Hi all, I need a bass driver/woofer for a Beovox S55. It doesn't matter if it needs refoaming & I aren't looking for a freebie as it is for a paying 3rd party who's speakers I said I would have a look at (the original is totally shot & irrepairable). Chris.
