    B&O Beogram 3400 counterweight

    Hello everybody and happy holidays! Just got my first B&O device, so I'm pretty excited! But the one I got needs a lot of work! In brief, Santa just gave me a free beogram 3400, that was listed for parts, and it's in very sad condition, with both power and sound cord cut out. I gave it a good...

    Beogram 6000 (4002) tonearm not lowering, after replacement transistor issues with oscillating solenoid.

    As per the title I have a beogram 6000 which previously did not have enough power to lower the solenoid. It did try but it would require help from me in order to actually finish going down. I read on a forum that it could have to do with the 1c23 capacitor or the arm circuit transistor. I...

    Audio Origin or Soundsmith? Rebuilt MMC20EN or New SMMC20EN?

    Bang & Olufsen B&O SP14 cartridge repair

    Here's a challenge for someone. I'm restoring a Beogram 1202. The needle was junk. I managed to purchase a new old stock SP14 stylus, without selling my house! Job done, I thought. Turns out the cartridge had dropped a channel. A replacement cartridge is harder to find than the stylus. :( So...

    is there any way to adjust where my Beogram 2400 lifts the tonearm?

    My Beogram 2400 automatically lifts up and returns the tonearm when it reaches the end of the record - about 6 times out of 10. Apparently a lot of my records don't let the cartridge near enough the spindle to trigger the action. Is there any way to fine tune this? I think if it was just...

    Beogram B&O TX2/MMC3 Question

    I'm looking to purchase a preamp for use with my Beogram TX2 TT so that I can transfer from LP to CD media. Am I correct in assuming the MMC3 "moving micro cross" cartridge to be basically a moving coil cartridge?

    Need help: My B&O Beogram RX2 needs work

    I purchased a Bang & Olufsen Beogram RX2 turntable a few years ago. The needle seems to be working just fine (the original owner replaced it with a new cartridge). The problem is the RCA cable. It is connected to the TT so it can't be replaced easily. One side/channel doesn't work properly (the...

    LOUD turntable hum only after time elapse

    I have a Beogram RX that hums only after I've been playing records for a period of time, and the hum can even start when the turntable has stopped (but it never starts unless the turntable was turning). It is quite loud. I have changed amps and speakers to isolate the problem, and it must be...
