The Beocord 5000 doesn't have autoreverse and uses a different tapehead compared to the 5500.

Hi!

Thanks for your offer. It feels bad to part a complete deck to get this working; mine is not in too good external condition. I guess it would be a bit too complicated task and amount of work - I think I will just keep looking for the head itself. I don't want to have more "almost working" Beocords lying around... :) Or would you have any use for the rest of the deck?

This one is for sale on ebay and probably won't go for much money as it's pick up only and has a damaged front. If you were to win it I could pick it up for you and post the head assembly to Finland.

Cheers

I got a non-working BC5500 with the problem of sound in only one channel. The head was open-circuit in the silent channel (checked with multimeter and swapping left/right channel).

So if anyone has an extra head for this deck (it is told to be the same as used in 3500 / 4500 / Beocenter 9000 / 9500 / 8500) I'd like to buy one. Hopefully not too expensive, suggest a price. I'd like to have the head assembly as complete as possible as it's quite miniature if dis-assembled. (Head, fixing screws and frame and the wires to be soldered to the small board).

I am located in FIN, I will pay the postages and I can pay with PayPal.

Thanks in advance.

Ville
