    Beocenter 9500 Beogram 9500 Beovox 3000 CX100 Beocord 2000 + more

    Hi All,

    Ive just come across a 'job lot' of goodies by auction (non ebay).

    I am shortly going to go through it all to test each thing - so I will probably have further questions along the way...

    First question though is what is the best thing to use to clean the mirrored panels on the 9500? It seems to have some black sticky substance on the panels in a couple of small areas. I want to clean this off of course without damaging the surface....can anyone advise me of the best way / the best things to use to do this?.

    I have various wires & cables with this lot - but am unsure that all necessary cables are present to connect up the Beovox 3000's (Flat Panel) or the CX100's - or the Beogram 9500 unit also. I immediately notice that both these old types of speaker dont have any powerlink sockets - presumably they are both pre-powerlink capable?

    Therefore, If I do need to source various cables (I'm fairly sure I will have to) could anyone advise which types of cables I would need to find for these types of speakers...? and where is best to buy such cables..?

    Many thanks,

    Michael

    Steve at Sounds Heavenly is a memeber here and can be Pm'd or his store has an ad. at the foot of this page. He can supply any cables you are missing, in a veriety of lengths to suit your installation.

    Generally speaking, you aren't learning much if your lips are moving.

    Try using baby wipes to clean the mirrored panels. You sound like you don't need telling NOT to use any abrasive/aggressive products under any circumstancesSmile

    2 pin DIN speaker cables for the CX & panel speakers are also available from Maplins with moulded plugs fitted to each end but they won't be any where near the quality of Steves cables at soundsheavenly.

    Cheers fellas,

    I'll try the baby wipe thing & will definately be contacting Steve too about the cables.

    If either pair of speakers has the usual foam rot problem - can anyone recommend any place near me (north manchester) for me to take them - or, if i were to have a go myself, where is the best place to buy the necessary rubber seals & suitable adhesive?

    Many thanks,

    Michael

    Your CX's will more than likely have foam rot. All the ones I have brought recently have. You can get the surrounds on Ebay from a seller called goodhifi. They are in the Netherlands, and are very good quality. Or you can order the Drivers from B&O for about 25 each.
