Perhaps the definitive B&O product. Combining innovative, cutting edge technology, precision engineering, superlative performance and outstanding appearance in a tasteful, usable, relevant package, it set the standards for top end Hi-Fi. For a small organization like B&O to release a product like this stunned the audio industry, who were used to seeing a lead from the likes of Technics and Sony. Both these companies, and many others besides, tried in vain to imitate this model, but none ever offered a convincing alternative.
This model has been completely restored and is equipped with an internal RIAA preamplifier, allowing it to be connected to modern music playback systems. The plexiglass cover is new. The motor has been restored through complete disassembly, cleaning, and a pressurized oil change. This is a Beogram Type 5521, produced from 1977 and sold until 1980.
Given the weight and complexity of the turntable, shipping is absolutely not an option. It will be tested using a complete B&O system prior to collection.
