BeoSound 3000 CD player problem
3 replies
Hi and welcome to Beoworld!
There seem to be lots of CD player problems on Beoworld at the moment - all with very similar era equipment with what may well be the same CD player components. All have the linear (rather than curved) tracking laser head, moving in a straight line across the radius of the CD.
Have a look at this thread for ideas:

Hi
I have exactly the same issue on a Beosound 1. It seems to be the same optical unit (VAU1255)
Cleaning the lens and the mirror made the situation even worse (shouldn't have used Isopropyl Alcohol ?)
Found an optical unit at a reasonnable price on Amazon, should receive it next week
If you want the link I can send it to you in MP
