I’ve had this Beosound 3000 and bl2500 with the lovely red aluminium fronts for a while but now I found the time to put it up. The issue was that it didn’t quite look right on any of the walls and the stands available don’t match the interior either. So what to do? We ended up with this homemade stand, made from a leftover piece of oak from the window sills. Very simple and easy to hide the wiringWink

I sometimes get sidetracked with what I should buy...

we tend to forget there is more to design than designing.

VERY nice! Love it, it perfectly captures the simplicity and natural materials so often found in Scandinavian furnishings, and goes well with the B&O.

I'm afraid I'm recovering from the BeoVirus. Sad

Thanks! I’m reasonably pleased with it too, I kind of had something more elaborate planned, but this seemed more right. Sometimes it’s better to just let things be what they are, natural enges and all.

,Thanks. The system is placed in a link room And the bs3000 is only s.w. 3.1 (no. opt. 6) so the wireless 1, set as receiver, ensures that there is no A. Master conflict. I might use a cable if I get an s.w. 3.4 bs3000. I have no beovision on the ml system, so I use a blc as v. Master which gives me chromecast, deezer, tunein etc. On the Video sources which can be controlled through the bs3000.

Me too.

Actually the one in front is a ringer -- it's working fine.  You can guess which sub-forum I'll be frequenting soon!

[Yes, if everybody posted photos of random broken equipment, this thread would not be as much fun to read as the "in situ" living room glamor shots.  I just couldn't resist...]

Here it is, where it normally sits:

It's actually a new model, the ZVWZANC-9500.  It's from one of those Shenzhen electronics companies you never heard of before.  Personally I think they went a little overboard plastering their logo all over it:

I for one welcome beoporn in all variations. I like to think that I have a broad taste and what does it for one may not do it for another Wink 

Nice collection by the way.

For that question you will need a matching Beogram 9500 ***

My former CDX which was a basket case with a broken left hinge when I got it. A Beoworld member had a solution to the hinge and Dillen serviced the rest. Years later still worked and sold as it as I had moved to CD6500.

My fomer Beogram 8002. A lot of problems and cost but once Dillen had done the service this one really sounded and played great. These days I got 6006 and 6500 also serviced by Martin.

My old Beovision LX5500 when I saw it the first time. An auction with a bunch of cables, 2 converters 1611 and 1615 + a Beolink 1000 remote. I won high bid and got it in 2008. I can recall testing it and finding it kind of dead. The buttons on the 5500 did give me life but the Belink?  

Got a new print board and now it was working greatly. The stand was for L2800 and funny enough that was Beovision going out since the LX5500 had arrived. So that went with the L28000. 

That Beovision is still working with a VX7000 vhs video today! I have not used it much since 2008 but it has strong life it seems. The motorised stand I got seemed to be in trouble turning left but another Beolink 1000 had no problems. 

I have used the 1611 converter with my Beovision AV9000 IMP 1998 and Beosystem 6500. It works very well as it should and a got converter to keep in any case and part of why 6500 is my syste of choice. The options!

Beocord 1100 still working or did for a while. Heavy quality build, no plastic. Put a tape in and then stopped working no light or anything. Maybe power supply is done.

Here we have a proof of the Beocord 1100 actually worked when I got it and even tried to record something which turned out ok. Put a Metal tape in and dead. Powerfull tape those are.

In Denmark a typical thrift store find. Expect trouble as that is what is mostly there. Except once when it was a Beocord 5500 and I could not find any faults. It still plays to this day on original belts. It looks like it's from the same store as the 5500 as I recall the original tape aux cable for Beomaster 6000/8000 and matching Beocord.
