Do you mean a Beocenter1 (TV set) or the Beosound 1 (Portable CD/Radio)? If the Beocenter 1 you are a bit limited as it is designed for Video connections only. Does yours have an ML socket? If so, I would look for something like an Ouverture to connect to it. If not, try connecting a cassette player to the Audio L & R sockets of the Camcorder input

You have identified the problem correctly. The Beomaster 5500 has a RIAA built in, but the 6500 does not. Therefore the Beogram 5500 will not work properly - you may also have noticed that it doesn't respond to your remote! You need an external RIAA - interesting thread on how to make your own here !

ChrDH: As far as I know, the AV7000 is a Beomaster 7000, but with the ability to drive 5 speakers in Dolby Pro Logic sourround (No Dolby-digital or DTS). They are pretty hard to come about as far as I know. I suppuse a beosystem 3 and some active speakers would solve your problem, but it is not a cheap solution. I suppose others on this forum know the

Under 100. And this will never be available again. And the first draw is imminent!

Have a great holiday - and wishing you luck in the draw!

I plan to have another listening test and review performed using the A8s, Form1, Form2, maybe U70s, and some upmarket headphones in the next month. We will be performing proper tests at the same time and will present the findings on site. I find Form 2s unsatisfying - but I also find them uncomfortable as I have a huge head!! So the pain might be affecting

Are you in the US? If not, forget it! Look for a Beosystem 1 or 2 instead assuming that your Set will accept a DVI input for the screen. They are quite cheap now as the Beosystem 3 is clearly superior. The AV7000 is a US only model (I know there were a few European prototypes!) and is not suited to a PAL based system. It will also be 110V. The user

I have put the proper BM 800/901 service manual on now. Previously just the schematic sheet.

Could it be condensation? Or do you mean the BS9000 needs to warm up. If the latter, I would suspect a cracked solder joint which will make contact once warm.

You look Gold to me!
