Thanks a lot, Martin someone had put some glue to panels, i've loosen them with a lot of care. Anything is ok. The panels are black plastic with a white surface. I' ve got them off without a damage. Wilfried OK, the Turntable is off, there are four screws on left and also four on the right side. you have only to lose them, don't turn them

Hi Martin, because there are no screws on the back, it seems to be the one with the screws on left and right. But how to take off the white panels? This kind of cables i saw at the 3300 Center and i think some problemes are the same, lift and function of the tonearm. Wilfried

Hi, it's me again Today i've got my new old Beocenter 1800 Condition is good for a 30 Year old Music-Center. Only 1 lamp is damaged and the turntable needs some inspection. I own the service manual but no instruction, how to open the chassis of this nice Beocenter. Can you give me a hand how to fix this problem? One problem of the turntable

So I did it right, I bought a very nice pair of the S45-2. It will take another two weeks to get them, but my friend who has seen them already, told me, they looks like deliverd just from the dealer, no scratches at all and in best condition. I will let you know how my opinion is, after hearing a week or two with these spekers. best regards Wilfried

Two models and two questions: What are the concrete differences between this models and are there any speakers of these series who got foam surrounds? regards Wilfried

Thank you Chris ! The second one is nearly ready, there is a only problem left with the Turntable-lid. The rear is broken, so that the hinges cannot work. At the moment i've got no idea to fix this problem. I will post it here, a.s.a.p. I've got any solution. Merry Xmas from East-Frisia/Germany

Thank you Peter, it was a lot of work, here is a picture "before" Just to give you an impression

Work is done, thanks again. Great sound, best optic, everything works

Thank you Martin, just found it. I will fix the problem tomorrow.

Hi, work is done, I bought another 3300 and changed some parts. The center now works very fine and i wait for my new old Beovox S 45 to complete the whole stuff. I bought them already and i'm just waiting for a transport to my hometown. There is only a small problem left, when I press the Stopp-Button of the turntable, the arm sometimes don't
