Hi everyone
At the moment I have a BeoSound 9000 (2526) which sometimes does not read the CD's correctly.
I think that only the laser unit is defective/or dirty.
Has anyone of you already made experiences with such a repair? Does anyone have tips for cleaning or a suitable laser alternative to the "VAM1250"?
I look forward to the feedback

I have a 9000 that does not read cd’s - I am told by a techie in Vancouver that the lasers are no longer made….so do you have any suggestions/comments - does unit need to be cleaned by a B&O technician? At a loss to figure out how to repair/ clean etc. i live on Vancouver Island BC Canada
When you try and read a CD does the disk make a small movement, then the words "Pause" appear in the display. If yes, then the laser is 99% the problem.
For the Mark 2 & 3 the laser assembly can still be obtained. However, if you have a Mark 2 BS9000 there are two different laser assemblies.
