Hej og velkommen til. Overfladen er glat - hvad man inden for maling vil kalde silkemat, glans 10-20. Den er ikke som malet træ, da kabinetterne er lavet i plastic. Hvis du finder nogle som ligner malet træ, er det -som du selv skriver - fordi træet er blevet grimt og den tidligere ejer har malet det. (dette træ er finer, som

Så vidt jeg ved, kan du ikke længere få betjeningspanelet til 9300. Eneste mulighed er så, at købe et defekt 9300, 9000 eller 9500 og tage panelet derfra, da det er tilsvarende. Men det er afhængig af hvad sælger forlanger for et defekt, om det kan betale sig. CX højttalerne er nogle rigtig gode højttalere

[quote user="Peter "] I have a black shiny plastic LX6000 and used to have a rosewood one. [/quote] It's not shiny plastic - it's spray-painted. B&O used to call it piano-laquer. All the LX cabinets were made of plastic - some with wood-veneer - others were painted in high-gloss white, grey or black.

Thank you for your explanation, Søren. However - I have to tell that I learned this (sodium hydroxide thing) when I was a teenager, following a electronics course. (As you say -the oxidation protects the surface). Here I build my first amplifier -japanese style -with an aluminum frontplate and lots of knobs and buttons. I sanded an aluminum plate

[quote user="Paul Winn"]1. Century - Cds jump and skip when you turn the volume up [/quote] That is not my experience with the Century. Something must be wrong with yours...Are you sure you've released the transport screws

My experience is, that "raw" aluminum is very sensitive to fingerprints etc. When you use sodium-hydroxide it will not stay bling-bling (if you by this mean "shiny"). The surface becomes a little more "white" - like the brushed aluminum surfaces on the "old" B&O -like the Beocenter 9000 and BeoSystem 5500

[quote user="Flappo"] I'll leave it to Stphen Fry , unlike some of the 'posters' on this board , he like Steve Jobs has contributed something worthwhile to our lives apart from a few unfunny jokes ; [/quote] Shouldn't we all calm down...What has Stephen Fry contributed to this world, that is so exceptional..? What is this thing

[quote user="Leslie"]I left the aluminium bare as it is. Tried to spray it with clear coating but that became messy and looked unnatural.[/quote] The problem is, if you leave the aluminum bare it will not continue to look good...you'll need to 'harden' the surface (as B&O does). Well -you can not do it as they do in the factory

[quote user="Llewelyn"]As above - If anyone knows of a nice set please let me know.[/quote] Hmm -You should have thought about that earlier I've sold a pair of fully functional M70's with original trumpet stands 3 months ago. They were not very easy to sell here in Denmark. After 2 months they went for 400 DKKr (approx. 40£)

[quote user="tournedos"] You didn't plug it into the PHONO socket by chance? [/quote] This should not be a problem on a standard Beomaster 4500, as it does not have a RIAA on the phono socket (Called PH/TP2) -so in this case the phono socket should be as all the other sockets. However - IF the previous owner has had a RIAA module mounted
