[quote user="Puncher"] There is for the BC5500 - is that different, I'm not sure it is! [/quote] Worked for my 6500 - although I think it wasn't much help in the actual belt replacement. I just dismantled the mechanism enough to remove the old completely stretched out belt and replace it with a new one. Will be a little bit difficult

You're right (actually 459M), so not all of the offered new shares have been subscribed. I believe there will be a more detailed announcement later.

B&O announced today that the stock capital has been increased by DKK 241,626,760 and that the stock classes have been merged. So apparently the subscription has been a success. At the time I write this, the current stock price is 45.00. This means that if you bought in at the pre-subscription price of 80 DKK and bought the new shares, you have invested

The -30 dB switch might be enough - but there will always be the danger that somebody pokes it off and you may damage not only the peace of the neighbours but probably even your speakers. I do recommend that you get proper attenuated cables, or check if that amplifier of yours happens to have the "pre out" connectors, in which case this will

447,5 kHz versus 455 kHz is a difference of less than 2% so that should be no problem - I have a self made AVR microcontroller based IR project, which due to software timing issues can send either at around 420 kHz or 480 kHz, not between. It can control B&O devices with no problem, only the range is reduced quite a bit compared to lower carriers

I had my BS6500 for a while before I decided that I need a two-way remote (anyone who owns one knows that the feedback from the actual units is pretty sparse...). Later I bought an MCP6500 and loved it. It is still on my computer desk and I use it often to check the time, if nothing else (not the mention which radio station is playing, or which track

Think audio and multiroom setups where you can't see the actual source. Or even the older systems from the hayday of the two-way remotes, that had very little info visible on the device itself.

[quote user="h1npw"] Andy - Welcome to Beoworld! If you do use Tim he will almost certainly suggest correcting the design fault on the Beolit that causes the speakers to go kaput. [/quote] Would anybody be so kind and reveal that particular fix here as well?

[quote user="elephant"] the picture of the amp is actually the second of the speaker pictures. [/quote] Well, after a bit of detective work: http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k211/Stefan1973/HPIM1975.jpg That amp belongs to the Beolab 5000 system from 1967-72 and is definitely very collectable (but you now have to find the matching Beomaster

Yes, BC Components is now part of Vishay, and this particular cap family is designated AML138 (or 138AML? I forget). And yes, they make 33u/25V as well, although 47u has been in my experience a better choice (the player will not be so picky about the quality of CD-R's). These are available for example from www.digikey.com and I bought mine from
