1, I have tried all kinds of tape and none worked for me. It you can get some that works to your satisfaction, then fine. 2, The tracking force slider sits at the right side of the tonearm, a couple of centimeters from where it enters the plastic housing. 3, It's nothing like the 4000 series. The 8000 has no switch, it counts opto pulses and any

Welcome to Beoworld ! I'm afraid a cap kit won't solve these problems, or at least not all of them: 1, 2-comp epoxy and some metal washers or similar of suitable thickness to shim up the lid to the correct height. 2, Have you checked the tracking force ? 3, Clean and lubricate the threaded carriage shaft. Use a good silicone grease of the non

Welcome to Beoworld ! Indeed a nice radio ! There are nice drawings in the service manual, available for download for silver and gold members. Well worth the small fee for all the information held in there. In my opinion also worth going for gold - checkout this months incredible prizes in the draw : http://www.beoworld.org/prize_draw.asp Martin

Joost, Please don't get me wrong but unless you are an educated tech guy I suggest you leave servicing of stereo equipment to someone who is.

Do be careful with those motors. You can read my post here, actually the complete threads are both good: http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/p/18869/140164.aspx#140164 http://forum.beoworld.org/forums/p/18126/134162.aspx#134162 Martin

One more Beogram saved. Good job ! Martin

Welcome to Beoworld ! Both are important. The uF to get the correct capacity and the voltage to achieve correct filtering and to insure nothing explodes due to overload. 4100uF - that's not a standard value and never were. Probably misread 4700uF - is it a new component or one taken from another set ? Don't get me wrong, but mounting a 40V filter

Hvis ABR pladerne er løse, rasler de som regel rundt lige bag stoffet eller skramler rundt i deres metal beslag når højttalerne vendes og drejes. Det kan man ikke undgå at opdage. De kan normalt føles med forsigtighed gennem stoffet og du kan sagtens mærke om de spiller med. Martin
