  • Re: beomasster 2000 ( opening)

    [quote user="John"] It looks as if the whole light unit had been designed during a Wednesday Forum. Perhaps that is the best time to work on it! [/quote] If you mean the coloured plastic windows that show through the front panel, they are supposed to be fixed on the front panel, not the bulbs. I guess they were originally glued, same thing

    The indicator light circuit was probably designed by someone after way too many Carlsbergs... if the moving dial bulb is out, "on" and "stereo" won't work either as it supplies power to the others. The tuning balance circuit has its own quirks. Anyway most of the bulbs were out on mine, seems like a failure prone type or maybe

    I don't have a piePhone myself, but I believe it works if you go to edit your profile -> site options and change the editor type to "plain text".

    You'll need to remove the preset trimmers from the PCB they are installed on (I seem to remember you have to desolder all wires coming to the PCB, make notes before doing that!). Then, very carefully pull the plastic thumbwheel off the metal axle. Spray a little contact cleaner or isopropanol on the axle and inside the trimmer, then carefully work

    Good! This is a great sounding receiver and well worth restoring. Getting the case parts aligned properly can get annoying when putting the receiver back together. I've fixed two of these and never got the hang of it, always takes several tries before the buttons sit centered in their slot... If the FM presets are stuck, they can be fixed. Let us

    First of all you'll need to tell us which Beomaster 2000 you have If it is the '70s "ironing board", the top of the unit flips up not unlike the Beocenter 9500 series, only that the hinges are in the rear edge. The circuit boards themselves won't move anywhere with any reasonable amount of work!

    Don't use any kind of solvent! The aluminum has some kind of a lacquer on it, and if you manage to rub it off, the result will look awful. Just a little soap for the most stubborn dirt.

    Glad you're happy with it, ang got it so quickly too! I had to wait for a few weeks for mine, apparently they are made according to demand and aren't always in stock.

  • Re: Burned resistor Beolab Penta 1

    The displays themselves are all totally different, but they are all almost directly connected to the various (datalinked) inputs. The amp doesn't have much to do with them expect that it supplies the power (and maybe lights up a LED or two, I haven't looked that closely). So, I guess it would be possible after checking the wiring pinouts and
