B&O brings back a turntable from the 1970s
    2020-11-04  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

Bang & Olufsen (B&O) is giving a new life to one of its classic turntables: the Beogram 4000 series. It has tracked down and restored 95 units of the device, which it created in the early 1970s. If you’re interested, you’ll be able to get your hands on one of them — but you’ll need a spare US$11,000.

The Beogram 4000c Recreated Limited Edition is the first product B&O is releasing from its Classics initiative. The idea is to restore and reimagine some of its old products to exhibit off the company’s “timeless” capabilities “within sound, design, and craftsmanship and to uncover design principles that can extend the lifespan of future products.”

It brought the turntables back to the same location in Denmark where it created them almost 50 years ago. B&O engineers dismantled each turntable, cleaned every component and replaced parts as needed before testing and fine-tuning it.

The Beogram 4000c Recreated Limited Edition has a refreshed look, with a new hand-built solid oak frame and a dust lid for protection. B&O polished and anodized the aluminum in a warmer champagne tone too. The turntable now has a high-performance stylus along with a RIAA phono pre-amplifier, which allows you to hook it up to your speakers over a phono or 3.5mm connection.

Each unit comes in a solid oak box and has a five-year warranty.(SD-Agencies)
