If the speakers won't mute either via the remote control,or the mute button on the wall plate,check that the thin yellow wire is connected in the relay box.Check that the cable between the wall plate and relay box is'nt damaged anywhere.

That's an MX4500 sir!A quite different beast from the '4000,despite the higher number.It's a 26" crt set.Multistandard,and capable of quite good results if the crt is still in good shape.Not the most reliable of B&O tv's,being a hybrid of B&O and Thomson! Only one scart connection obviously.The set was designed to partner

There is no internal muting in the MCL2p,just power up/down,like in the Beolab 8000.The signal lines are muted within the Beocentre when changing source etc.I think it was only the Beolab Penta and Beolab 3500/4500/5000 that have internal muting.

The memo batteries are quite long lived in these units,and only cause memo problems usually.The "weird scenes in the gold mine"that you are seeing,seem to suggest the micro is having a "strop".It's supply and reset is crucial,and there is a common problem with all the Beocentre 9000 derivatives where the 5v supply resevoir cap

Give the idler tyre a good clean with meths while

The speed is varied by moving an intermediate drive wheel up and down a cone shaped sleeve fitted to the motor spindle.The position of the cone on the spindle can be adjusted.Might give you more range?

Just a thought,have you released the transit screw's?

You have Sky Plus at present presumeably? I'd stay with Sky,but praps trade down to a lower subscription package,you will still get all the Freesat channels,plus a good selection of basic Sky channels.Avoid the hassle of changing your box etc,and keep the very logical ease of use of the Sky/B&O configuration?
