They come up on ebay from time to time in the UK - but postage to Sweden could make it expensive. They usually go for around £80 -120 - or 100 to 150 Euro Brian

Sadly the correct B&O remote for the TV will not work the 5000. The only "crossover" would be the VHS91.2 which (should) work with the BM5000 as tape 2 or via the TV Scart cable and a Beolink 1000 (or the similar looking but earlier AV control). Brian

Two for England! Congratulations to Peter and Henry! Brian

I am on line waiting eagerly - here is to the 10 lucky people over the next hour..... Brian

The mirrored panel at the bottom of the Beolink 7000 is no longer available from Bang and Olufsen (worth asking if someone here has one?) I was lucky to get one of the last when I had my 7000 serviced at the UK's B&O Repair Centre near Gloucester! I must update my AVATAR to reflect it- but it is so small I am not too concerned. Brian
