Hi
I wonder if you can help me. I am looking for the following components to repair my Bang and Olufsen Kit:
Beocord 3300 type 2942: drive belts
Beomaster 1600m type 2113: tuner cord and fitting instructions
Beogram 1200 type 5214: SP14 stylus (or complete cartridge).
Can you please point me in the direction of someone who may be able to supply these?
Kind regards

Hi MalcomH,
You could try : "Beoparts -Shop" (sorry , i don't know how to post a link) but if you google it ,it will take you there.
For the belts,you could contact User Name : Dillen (Martin is his name) on this forum.(Don't be tempted to buy off e-bay,especially belts from Poland- they are not fit for purpose.)
Hope this helps,
regards
Noel.
Sorry I forgot to mention "Beoparts"- Google: "How to buy beoparts"
This will give you other options.
Hi Malcolm,
Martin/Beoparts is your best source for parts but you can use suitable dial cord which you can get on eBay.
The 1600M is an updated version of the Beomaster 1400 (2104). I repaired one last year and posted this:
https://archivedforum2.beoworld.org/forums/t/41585.aspx?PageIndex=1
This includes some info on restringing the dial cord and restoring the inertia gearbox mechanism. The restringing part of it will require nimble fingers and the patience of Job. To get the tension right the cord loop needs to be a specific length, 160 cm if I remember right. In the end I resorted to a slight bodge as without the correct tension the string won't drive the tuner.
Service manuals are available on this site for Silver and Gold members.
Regards,
Simon

Not sure about Poland, but the ones from Portugal causes more damage than good.

Sorry Martin, my mistake-I should have said Portugal.
