That is neat, never seen one of these.
Just found this:

Various versions, with/ without stereo decoder, with germanium or silicon transistors.
Hi Paul,
Just a quickie, mate, when you get a minute could you please fill in the basic location details in your profile?
Cheers! :cool:

I only like the Beolab 1700 Amp/Beomaster 1700 Tuner & the Beolab 5000 Amp/Beomaster 5000 Tuner
Beomaster 1000, one of the first proper HiFi units I ever saw in the flesh. I understand the caps last well on these.
Alex, that Planar 3 NEEDS serious attention. The main bearing may well be dry by now and if there's anything more than a slight dimple on the bottom of the shaft, replace the bearing (quite cheap). Otherwise, clean off the crunge and use a good few drops of EP80 gear oil. MAKE SURE THERE'S A BALL IN THE BRASS BEARING HOUSING!!! With belt disconnected, a serviced bearing with glass top platter on should take ages to spin down to a very gradual stop. The motor bearings may need cleaning (especially the bottom one) and re-lubing and if you can find the early fixed-motor upgrade kit on fleabay I'd get one as the motor runs smoother, the thing doesn't wobble about and pitch stability is very much enhanced IMO.
Check and tighten the main bearing nut and, with care, the arm fixing nut too. failure to do this wrecks the "Rega Sound" and adds to feedback (which the R200 equipped models were sensitive to).
The R200 bias belt can fatigue and fracture. I believe mine has been replaced with a toothed belt from a video service kit.
A new belt and mat is advantageous. HiFi dave will advise and supply. Remove the lid when playing and consider a wall support (their own used to be good value and can be used with others if spiked).
Hope this helps.
