Saving the Bang & Olufsen Beomaster 901 from the Dump

In this video, we'll be taking a closer look at a fantastic Bang & Olufsen Beomaster 901 that was saved from the dump. I was fortunate enough to be offered it first and, of course, I took up the offer. The Beomaster 901 came with a set of S45 speakers that I re-foamed recently, so this should make a great little set when it's all done.
Initially, I had plans for a full restoration series, but when I found that little was needed to make it work, I decided to give you some insight into other aspects of the system. I'll be opening it up and adjusting some settings that may not be obvious without the service manual. The service manual is available, by the way, so you can follow along.
Whether you're a fan of vintage audio equipment, or just interested in learning more about the inner workings of a classic Bang & Olufsen system, this video is for you. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey of saving this amazing piece of audio equipment.
