Today I was given a Beolab 5000 amplifier as a "thank you" for a favour I gave. It had been used on a school and is therefore missing the Volume slider, two buttons are chipped and the wood cover is very scratched - the front panel is fully intact. The bass slider doesn't work, but the amplifier is otherwise fully functioning. I see why people tend to like the sound of it. This is going to be a near-future project!
Vinyl records, cassettes, open reel, valve amplifiers and film photography.

A nice" thank you" Soren , of course all you need now are the other parts. :-)

Indeed - I would be quite happy with a Beogram 3000 Thorens, but the Beogram 4000 is almost period correct with the same "by appointment to the Royal Danish Court" and pregnant B logo. I have also run out of shelf space again... Need to get rid of a Kustom valve guitar amplifier before proceeding
Dangerous times call for drastic solutions.

Nice stuff bro. Looks great :-)

Repulsive.... both the culprits and the 'decor' of that room.
Some people like watching TV like sitting in a barber's chair waiting for a close shave ...
Or watching a Close Shave
blah-blah and photographs as needed
Here is my latest set-up (friday...)
Finally got me a Beolit 12. Bought a second life unit in mint condition.
Very happy with the sound and looks!

Hi Hiort,
You know how jealous I am for the lamp. ;-) I think the Beolit is a very interesting product. Beautiful pictures indeed.

Here is a picture of a room redesign in progress. Walls have been repainted to new colors. Blue wall did not turn out quite as painter and I had envisioned and might be changed to slight grayer shade. New furniture is ordered and rug will be unrolled when it arrives. I am trying to decide if I want to replace the 9s with with 5s, 5s are on loan from dealer.
My blue speakers went well with the old wall colors, but not the new. I am trying to decide between white and black. Any thoughts? t
White would look great there.
Luke: White would look great there.
Seconded. They would stand out nicely against the darker background (but still not "in your face" way). With the colours as in the picture, the black 5's look a bit as if they were sulking.

Very small toys...

larskoelle:Beautiful pictures indeed. is that a silver Jensen design candle stand on the first picture?
Repulsive indeed. But you should be jailed for that BL5 placement alone!
Too long to list....
Some pictures 11/46
The 9's look very cool in red.
Dear Beofan53
Both Beolab 4 are meant for connection with my IMAC which is in my office upstairs. Sometimes I also connect them with the BV11 to get a surround experience!
As we sit down very close to the Beolab 9 it is nice that you can fit the power in the TV.
The BC2 is connected with the TV by means of a ml convertor [to see on the picture: the equiment with the bevel edge].
We just use the BC for analogue radio in ktichen and sleepingroom.
Now I am digitalising my dvd's and cd's for the Apple TV.
Added a CD to the B&O collection.
Your CD comes from this 6 CD set, Very good music and good quality CDs.
Collecting Vintage B&O is not a hobby, its a lifestyle.
This is not a very good photo, just a quick one taken with my iPhone. I recovered my 9s in white today from the former blue as part of my room redecorating. As I can not get a white front for the 7-4, I am trying to decide between silver which is what the BV7 is, black, (new furniture in room will be a mix of black leather and white leather), or possibly just using the spare gray front I have, which is sitting in front of the speaker in this picture. Any opinions on the best color for the 7-4?

BL9 in white looks awesome! I would go for either black or silver. Think silver would look best.
Congratulations to a great setup

Thanks Sören! I have 5 more CDs to collect then
It was my dealer that sold me this single CD.
