Spiros: Congratulations Soren. Very nice piece!!Look forward to the progress of restoring it!
I'm happy as child at Xmas, aparently the BM is working exept for the FM curser (string or curser broken)the presets works, its one of very few that still has the preset cover, but of course I'm going to do a full restore with the help of all the great guys and girls on this forum, going to try the ambio with Bvox 3000 flat panel I bought from Jaff, and my S45 or maybe my S3702s and S45s, he-- I'm going to try with everything i have,

If its just a broken string you are in luck. Not too terribly tough a project to repair really. I just finnished completing a "modern" restoration on mine and so far I am not disappointed.
I usually run with S50 or S80 on the fronts and then CX100 for the "ambio sides"".
It is a great amp Soren, I wouldnt be surprised to see it become your favorite.

I was watching this one, but I wasn't exactly keen on the seller's apparent lack of knowledge. Calling the B&O speaker plugs "screwy to say the least" - I just felt like there was a real chance the seller really hadn't tested it at all.
The next 4000 has a missing balance slider, so I'm not even watching that one.
I am, however, bidding on the one out of San Francisco whose auction ends Sunday night.

Thanks Soren
This system is easier than the previous one I tried several months ago .
After 20 years, I've got another preset cover almost identical to the original one ...and a lovely DIY afternoon!

In service now
Now on the bench testing
about a two to three week rebuild/restoration project for the two. The electronics are done all that remains is some minor cosmetic work and cleanning.
The Beocenter 1600 is undergoing it makeover right now. Long forgotten and under appreciated set. I like it even if it aint currently hip, cool or popular.

No - someone else sniped it from me with less than 5 seconds to go.I guess the M70s will have to wait a little longer.

Missed a BM 4000 - no big deal. There will be others.
