thank you! Will call him tomorrow. I think the table is worth repairing considering the cost to get a newer table with same performance.

found a company, Soundsmith in NY state that repairs these, not cheap but they seem to know B&O. anyone have experience with them? I dont have the skills to replace electronics on the 8002 so forced to have someone repair it.

have had this for many years but now the table will stop and tonearm may or may not lift off record. no pattern to stoping, may play whole lp or just one cut and stop. local repair people no longer in business. is this something major or minor?
