Hello all,

Just about to get a Beomaster 1700 to complete my basic set of B&O kit. However, it needs the volume belt replacing. Are there easy to source in the UK and replace? 

Also is eBay the best place to get the converters to allow normal speaker cables to be connected to the unit?

Thanks in advance

Not in the UK, but I have this:

Easy to replace? Err.. it could've been worse, but it's more of a half-hour job than a 2-minute one.
