And it came with a Beolit 500, which was nice. Along with a Beogram 1000, which actually sounds very good indeed. If you saw me at the moment you might mistake me for the Cheshire Cat! Im rather pleased with them!

Heres the Beocord and speakers. The Beocord has a plastic cover over the control panel to keep it nice and clean. The tweeters dont work on one speaker, hopefully I can do something about that.

I tried to post some pictures of my 5000 system yesterday but for some reason it didnt work. So here we go again. As can be seen its in pretty good order. This is before I have given it a thorough going over. There is some wear to the volume numbers and a bit on the tuning dial, but I can live with that. The lights on the amp dont work at the moment

My recently aquired 5000 system has a couple of minor issues. One is that the lights on the Amp dont light up. The little stereo one or the red power light. How do I get to the bulbs to change them?

Sure enough it fired up fine, no crackles from any sliders or anything. First impressions are very impressive but it was only for

I had my heart set on a BM8000 butcant justify any more purchases after my latest acquisition. Bargain for someone handy with tools.

Im suprised that even an MMC2 could make Ricky Martin sound good Im still regretting selling my BG8002 a couple of years ago. I never listened to it then, but now have three record decks, none of which are as good!
