Alright, the ZX33 finally arrived today - installed...and…60V and 33V - spot on. The power supply is working perfectly again. The left amplifier, not so much. *sigh* Yet another challenge. Anyway, should anyone ever need a reference for a repair - substitute types used for the unavailable transistors are: 2N2102 for SE8002, BF259 for SE7001,

Actually I've never seen one in real life. I'm sure they have their qualities...but either everyone that ever photographed one used a crappy camera or that is the most hideous fabric I've ever seen. Back to topic: I ordered a ZX33, but they first have to check wether they actually have some...and even if they do it's going to take at

Danke! The ZX33 indeed seems to be at least somewhat available. Spend the last hour desperatly googling for some supplier who doesn't have a minimum order value...and finally I did find one: http://www.littlediode.com/components/ZX33.html It's not cheap and it'll take a week to get here - but it's something!

I'm currently restoring a Beolab 5000. Just finished a complete recap - basically every single cap was leaking. After that it worked fine and I was rather trilled to find everything this flawless...until I tried to adjust the power supply. All voltages were way off, at the test point it was 72V instead of 60... Basically everything in the power

Thanks! I now reassembled everything the way it should be. Well...so close, and yet something rather important is still missing.

Most likely a ground loop - are both the Beosound and the TV connected to the same aerial? Try disconnectiong the antenna on either the TV or the Beosund, if that makes the humming disappear you've found your culprit. Solution would be to fit an adapter in one of the aerial connections.

Now come on, you know you want it! You know you want that receipt that reads: "Dear B&O-Friend! We would like to congratulate you on your decision, which has made you the owner of a B&O-component. We thank you for the trust you put in us. We would be glad to prove to you that you made the right choice, and we will honestly try not to disappoint

80€. This is real heavy danish quality, unfortunately.

I still have the original receipt from when the BM and the BG were bought alongside one another in a HiFi-shop in Schwäbisch Gmünd way back in the spring of 1975. Would you really dare to separate them?

uh. Just realized this is still sitting in a box in the basement. Now come on, everybody is always talking about absolutely needing to have one of these. Here it is. Perfect condition, except for some easy fixes. Worldwide shipping. Safely packaged. That's more than you usually get on ebay or other places. So this is really your last chance. I absolutely
