Beocord 5000 Type 4923: New power supply capacitors and belts

In the previous post for this Beocord 5000 (Type 4923) I left off ready to install new belts and replace the electrolytic capacitors in the power supply.

Here are those tasks completed now.

With the Beocord reassembled I connected it to its Beomaster 5000 for a quick listen.



















































The Beocord is back working again.  It will require some more functional testing so that will be the topic of the next post.
