BeoSound 9000 Mk2 Continued CD issues after laser replacement (2x)

3 replies
Hello, I have a BeoSound 9000 MK2 and after reading this forum, was under the impression the laser was defective. I have since purchased 2 replacements from a reputable source, yet the problem has not been solved (see attached video for current behavior - similar to what happened before, except for the fact that the spinning lasts longer). Before this happened, there was a gradual decline in performance, where the system had to "warm up" before music started playing. Beyond the laser, what could be the cause of this problem? https://drive.google.com/file/d/16ly03L-U4g-cef-mbfj3r0UKQuwFHzBs/view?usp=gmail Thanks, Chris
Hi Chris , your BS 9000 looks like mine did before it needed a new laser. I dropped mine into a repair place in Nice which I had not used before earlier this year. The first thing the guy said was “ah my old friend” when he saw the box. Places that do repair these are very familiar with them. I have no suggestions as to why two replacement lasers would not work. What country are you in ?

If it won't read the CD, the main suspect would be capacitor C2103. It's a 33uf capacitor.
