wow, Soren... that's a 108MHz one!!! Never saw them over here. Makes me kind of jealous Anyway. good luck with it... Gunther

Did you already try the 100nF blocking ceramic caps directly at the processor's supply as me & Olly suggested?

I always put a ceramic 100nF between + and GND on my controller's power supply. There seems to be a 1nF only here; can't see if they are ceramic - sadly I don't own a BM8000: I would put those 100nF in parallel to C16 / C46 and try again as filtering the 7805 obviously helped a little. Just a thought.... Gunther

And the black thingies - what are they? They are definitely NOT plastic - should have remembered that And look - I have a new ID - and it's NOT a copy!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for all this - I'm really being cared of And the looks get better every day - gaps are closed. So long - will be back if any news.. BM4000 @Soren H: You could have a look

Just a quick update: Look what came on Tuesday I'm gonna have the artificial part removed and replaced by an original I do have friends !!! Martin sent me some genuine parts to make me feel better. So much for the bracket:

Alles gemeinsam vom Strom genommen und dann wieder zusammen oder kurz nacheinander eingesteckt? Da war was mit Kommunikation in der 1. Minute auf ML damit's tut... Gunther

[quote user="Rich"]So how many BG's can be outfitted to play 78s? For some reason I had it in my head that it was only the BG1000.[/quote] Rich, the BG1500 is nothing more than a BG1000 with an 2x6W amplifier in it Gunther

Hello Yann, I don't own a 9000 (although I'd like to...) but I can imagine lookin' at the SM: mute - that one has been answered - relay. memory: There's a small battery in the unit, will have to be replaced. Not a standard cell though. tape: probably a belt problem with the rotation detector - surely Martin (Dillen) will fall in here

[quote user="Leslie"] Okay, same as record player I guess. [/quote] Yes, and I'm more than sure that Rich will fall in here soon and make his "TT ads" ... BTW, my actual TT count is 4 (not including the old JVC): I forgot my BG1500 to play my 78 shellacs through some Beovox M
