has anybody used Expert Stylus in Ashstead for re-tipping MMC stylii , before I call them on Monday ?? Expert Stylus & Cartridge Co Tel 01372 276604 Harriotts Lane Ashstead Surrey KT21 2QB http://www.expertstylus.co.uk

thanks for the offer Graham, but I wonder what the 8 inch ( 205mm ) Peerless woofers would cost these days, does anybody have any good suggestions on where to buy Peerless stuff other than ebay or Wilmslow thanks Peter

I have some RL60.2 speakers in the bedroom, so I will take one of them to Radio Silks next week and ask them what comes closest to that for you Henri

thanks Peter, I looked there first, but scanned it too quick, silly me ! unfortunately the pair of stands I saw today are too big then, does anybody know where I can buy S80 stands from ??? either copies or original, I have been looking for over 5 years now with no luck :-(

most people buy from Radio Silks Limited in North London http://www.radiosilks.co.uk/homepage.html Radio Silks specialize in supplying loudspeaker grille cloth, the material is supplied in a pack containing 1.42 square meters of cloth, enough to cover the grilles of most domestic loudspeakers. The cloth is specially produced for loudspeakers, it is

Hi Everyone, if I may ask a favour, can anyone tell me the width and depth of the bottom of a Beovox S80 or S80.2 speaker I am going back to a shop tomorrow to buy some stands that could be perfect for my pair of S80.2's , but I am 250 miles away from home thanks Peter

I agree with you, pretty much all the revised Uniphase range of Beovox speakers sound good with the BS 5000 family :-)

[quote user="j0hnbarker"] [quote user="BenSA"] What about RL140's? [/quote] Fine - as long as you sit up close. [/quote] interesting, I would disagree, Tim Jarman has BM5500 with RL140's and I was listening to them about 20 feet away on his sofa, they sounded all right to me, we played various types of music on his Beogram

[quote user="ducha"] Hmmm... Has anyone else tried the "Tim Jarman Fix" on their BM 5500/6500/7000? Is it a worthwhile improvement -- how exactly does the sound quality change? Aaron [/quote]you should definately do it, I have heard all the Beomasters in the BeoSystem 5000 family, and the extra 4 x 220nF capacitors C215, C216, C415

how easy is it to get replacement plastic / acrylic fronts for the BS 5000 family ?? I have one unit I would like to replace, it is 42cm wide and 2cm high, I guess the colour matching is the critical thing :-)
