Bang & Olufsen Turntable
RuralTom:
Hiya All,
I've got a B&O Beogram RX2 sitting here at home that likely needs a new motor. I'm curious if anyone knows folks who work on them and/or if it's even worth it at this juncture (have a Music Hall that I'm perfectly happy with at the moment).
Thanks!
MacGeek:
What exactly is/isn't the table doing? Getting another motor will likely require that you buy a used donor unit and rob parts. A working RX2 with out a cartridge should go for about $50 (maybe more if it's in excellent cosmetic shape), plus any shipping if you buy it on ebay (which I don't recommend). It might be easier to simply look for another table, rob the good cosmetic parts from your table, if necessary, and install your cartridge.

Records played on it sound 'warped', for my own lack of better terminology; I suspect that the motor is shot. This lil' VHFP shout out was likely my last gasp effort, parts from B&O aren't available and no good sounding RX2 listing has come up in a long time.... at a price I'm interested in paying. I suppose I'll send it 'out to pasture', lol.
