Designed by Jacob Jensen, the Beogram 1000 becomes the symbol of Jacob Jensen's B&O style and quality. For those who love vinyl and the craftsmanship that reached its peak in the 1960s. This model has been completely overhauled in collaboration with a Danish technician and collector who has restored more than 1000 units in his career. The original SP 14 stylus is in exceptional condition. The Beogram will be tested with a B&O system before collection. See images.
Bang & Olufsen has been a manufacturer of turntables since 1936 .
Owning a Bang & Olufsen turntable isn't a collector's item. It's a personal achievement.
Historical information: In the late 1960s, B&O embarked on a project to design high-quality turntables and a no-compromise plan was drawn up. Let us remember that B&O has been producing turntables since 1936. Well, the insurmountable problem that arose then was that of bringing together different parts from equally different companies, which often were not willing to work on such a project, but simply sold what they had, and that was it. So the decision was made to do "everything in-house", despite the clear amount of work that had to be done. This plan also explains why some companies and audiophiles have little sympathy for the Danish brand. From this project a total of 52 turntables divided into 15 families emerged. In terms of the quality of the materials, the sound result and the level of design, each Beogram is a masterpiece in its own right. But the most valuable work in my opinion was the completion of these projects, culminating in masterpieces such as the Beogram 4000 and Beogram 8000, despite the amount of work required of every B&O employee.
Necessary information: in relation to the product I sell and the interventions made to bring it back to the best possible conditions, the prices I ask for my turntables are very, very low, regardless of what AI says.
Private collection.
