Hello,

I am looking for a replacement for a Beogram 8000 platter that I managed to mess up cosmetically, and someone has a platter from a 4000 or 4002 that from the image looks very similar to the 8000. Can anyone tell me if they are basically the same?

Regards,

John

They are not the same.

A platter from a Beogram 6006 will be the only alternative since it's basically the same deck as the 8000.

Hello Martin,

Thanks, you just might have saved me some grief. Someone who should know better who fixes Beograms here in the states has said they have a platter but the photo they have shown me looks like it is on a 4000 or 4002 as I mentioned. It looked just like the platter on the 8000. Is it a question of the diameter or thickness of the platter that is the problem?

John

I have one in nice shape. Where are you? I'm in northern NJ, USA Phil

Hello Phil,

Thanks for the reply. I am at the other end of the universe, Idaho! Only kidding Idaho just seems that way. Is the platter you have available from either a Beogram 8000 or 6006? The distance for shipping is not a problem please contact me off list at:
