On the Beoworld description page for the Beomaster 7000 the following is mentioned:
"Note that the RIAA phono-preamplifier was placed in the Beogram 7000 and if a Beogram without RIAA was to be connected, a RIAA kit must be mounted in Beomaster 7000 by means of a minor service operation."
After a couple of phone-calls to various B & O service workshops in Sweden I have been informed that the special RIAA Pre-Amplifier that is meant to be built in to the Beomaster 7000 is no longer available. In the meantime I have purchased a separate RIAA Pre-Amplifier and connected it. My combination of Beomaster 7000 and Beogram 4002 thus works nicely. I would however be very interested in obtaining the special B & O Pre-Amplifier that is meant for mounting in the Beomaster 7000.
Would appreciate any tips on where I get hold of one, if still possible at all. I would of course gladly purchase a used one.
Best regards,

You might try a long established dealer - sometimes get left in old stock cupboards. However i think you will be lucky to find one. B&O had a clear out some years ago when all old stock was sent to landfill - tragic! It is rumoured a few pieces were rescued and put to good use!
