Can confirm Spiros remarks, went to Crete at the end of the 1980s, had 6 hours between flights in Athens, hired a taxi to show me the sights.

Within 3 hours he took me around, driving like a devil,

 

Who? Spiros? He was just a baby at that time and already driving a taxi?

Just kidding, love to go this place! Spiros, invite us, 3 persons.....(incl. tickets).....

Guys what a great thread I have just read every post and feel like I know all you guys a lot better, its almost 4 in the morning aswell I started at 1 lol. Defo tie to sleep, will be dreaming about doing the same to a pair of RL35.2 that I have. I also want to re-cap and recover my Beolab Penta II. I have never re-capped before so how easy would it be for a complete beginner? Re-covering looks pretty much very straight forward, but the re-capping looks a lot harder, also where and what type of caps do I need. I also want to re-cap my Beomaster 7000 if at all that is possiable? Thank you once again for a great read!! Peace out guys

Hello Nidul, thank you for your compliments!

I think you will find re-capping the speaker infinitely easier than re-covering it! If you haven't already, get some practice in soldering - especially if you want to take on a BM7000 re-cap.

Sources for caps are plentiful, Todd and I used www.meniscusaudio.com. They do not carry small caps for your Master but will have everything you need for speakers. For small caps, try www.mouser.com - they have everything! 

As far as deciding caps, you will want to get bi-polar electrolytic style. Match the capacitance of the originals and meet or exceed the voltage rating. I think you will find re-capping to be an easy chore. Once you have all the new caps in place make sure you glue them down to the circuit board with a shot of hot glue.

Regarding your 7000, contact member Dillen (Martin), he may be able to provide a kit.

Best luck Nidul!

Greetings Nidul!...WOW! So from 1 till 4' Well I had too at least get on here and say,"I'm glad too read someone at this late date

since the ending of the thread still finds it instructive and inspiring." We certainly hope you go from the dream stage too maybe a "Project

Reality with your RL35.2's, re-cap and recovering of your Penta's and The Beomaster 7000! I was the very Junior partner in that project. (yes, I've still got a lot too learn )

Working w/Evan made it easy and we had a blast doing it. So Nidul I will simply defer to his already prompt and very good advice.

Thank You again for the comments and encourage you to go for it! You will have a lot of help from your fellow Beoworlder's Here too make

it a success!
