During my move, I lost the special speaker wire with the proprietary endings to plug into the 5000 receiver and the B&O speakers. Do you know where I could buy this.

You guys were right! Instead of "changer" I bought a real transformer and it now works :-). Stuart, what do you mean by "links"? Is there something insight the uniits where a transformer can be switched? Thank you all for your help.

Peter: ... bar the transformer. A non functioning 5000 could prove to be a useful donor! How would one go about finding such a donor ?

Thanks. This is a basic explanation of what a transformer is. I have several. The problem is, IMHO, that the system requires also a very precise draw which my transformers (I have from 50W to 1800W) simply do not provide. I guess I could buy a very expensive, large transformer but where would I hide it :)

Thank you all for the great responses - just to make sure: I have a Canadian (110V) system and need to connect it to a European 220 current (there is also difference in frquency 50 --> 60 Hz). The system consists of the receiver, tape deck, turntable and CD (50) player.

Hello from a new member ... I moved to Prague from Canada. I brought with me a very old and very beautiful B&O 5000 4 component system. While some other equipment I brought works over 220V-->100V transformers, B&O won't. Is there a way of replacing the power supply system inside the units. do you know?
