    Vintage B&O Service Centres/Agents

    I'm collecting early B&O pieces that require service/repair.

    Can anyone recommend individuals/centres that carry out repairs/services?

    I live near Liverpool, so local travel would be very helpful.

    Hope you can help

    Bang & Olufsen,
    Wimborne Minster.

    Bang & Olufsen,
    Arnold,
    Nottingham. 

    Both are highly recommended from personal experience.

     

    Kind regards

    I have no personal experience, but I have heard good things about  B&O Chester (peters Hi-Fi).

    Hi,

    King Street use Lynear Technical Services, based in Chorley - not so far from Liverpool.  Contact number is 01257262937.

    They have three of the most experienced B&O guys in the UK (planet ? universe ?? ) in the form of Ray, Neil and Brian. 

    I would go so far as to say that there is no greater B&O "knowledge bank" in the UK ( Keith S asideYes -  thumbs up )

    Ray was taken to Struer for 25 years service as an audio bench engineer - so he has real time experience of most kit.  Neil is the best link installer I have ever known, and what Brian doesn't know about BeoVisions isn't worth knowing.  In other words, we recommend them.

    Regards

    David

    I endorse everything that King Street said about the guys at Lynear.  I have known all three of them for around 20 years and they are B&O through and through. They have so much knowledge between them it's frightening.
