"Draw NOW" We are still waiting. :)

Hopefully not! This is getting so exciting! I really hope it works

tournedos: Since the contrast screen is tinted glass, the MX's will always look dimmer than similar tubes would without a contrast screen. In addition, I'm sure any MX3000 has seen enough use that the tube has lost some of its original brightness. As to the caps, I wouldn't do anything as long as the tv works fine. There's always the

sverreh: Just tried. The covers did not open with the Beo4 nor the BL1000 when pressing CD or Amem/Atape. If, however I pressed CD on the remotes after having put a CD in the player, the door closed before playing the CD. I have my BC9500 connected to an Avant with the Avant in Option 2 and the BC9500 in Option 0. The manual says that the cd-cover should

Daniel: Really, will Denmark continue 10 years with analogue TV? Sweden has closed it because the frequencies are needed for cellphones. Lausvi, if you have a B&O-TV you can always get a solution fron oneremote.dk or Lintronic . That's interesting that Denmark would keep analogue that long. In FIN I don't remember hearing the frequencies

Christian: I have analogue TV, and will for the next 10 years or so. Be glad about that! Here in FIN the analogue transmissions have ended and now we have to use digital receivers. Extra remote, and extra trouble for the user. Tv's own remote is almost useless, just use it to switch the tv on and off, perhaps volume. You have to fiddle with two

If it is the relay, it should work fine when connected to the Speaker 2 -line. Still, if it is the relay, the replacement is relatively easy task (I tried, failed miserably, and paid 500 EUR for a local B&O shop to fix it!). If they do the relay replacement, it shouldn't cost a fortune. EDIT; By the way, is there a way to open the cassette/cd

Update; I have bought a BL1000 remote and the tv is in use. It has no place yet so it's in the livingroom and sometimes when I feel most B&O I roll it up and use it. I am still not sure if this is dim or not. It's not like most newer tv's that run so brightly that it hurts when watching in darkness. The MX's picture is well balanced

Have you connected the power amp to the speaker connections of the BC9500? If yes, which one, Speakers 1 or Speakers 2 -line? In case the line 1 there is the mute-relay that is proved to cause troubles because of oxidizing contacts inside it. That causes missing channels on lower volumes, crackles in sound and things like that. If possible, try the

Hmm. I tried to measure it today. I found out that the other part of the head shows resistanse of around 240 ohms (I have no idea if this is Ok or not - at least this was the only reading I got) and the other shows infinite. So as far as I know the head would be open-circuit (same story with a Beocord 1500 deluxe open-reel some years ago). How easy
