Title: hi!
Post by: Okke on December 17, 2018, 03:25:39 PM

Hello everyone,

My name is Okke, and I'm really fascinated with particularly 70's audio gear. I have been repairing, refurbishing and modifying al kinds of machines. When it's finished, I usually play around with it for a few months and then sell it on. I'm happy enough when I break even. I got some knowledge on electronics and gaining experience in working on particularly the older audio gear, but I'm not an expert.

Right now a Beogram 4002 (repaired, and soon to be fully refurbished) is playing over a lavishly refurbished Scott R 327, blowing a pair of Scott S177 speakers. Got a soft spot for Akai's.. Well, that sort of stuff. On this forum I hope to find roughly likewise infected minds, and I hope to find help&advice with what I'm working on. Perhaps I can also help a bit here-and-there, we'll see!

regards,
Okke

Welcome.  That 4002 is a great table.  I once had one and still have a bunch of other B & O gear.
