Bought on a whim because I liked the look of it and I thought it would do in my computer room for when I'm cleaning records. Mind you that room needs gutted and rearranged but that's a job for a rainy month 😂
It's a B&O Beogram 1700 from the early 80s I think. Came supplied with a B&O MMC20S cartridge.
It arrived in a box that was bomb proof and is the best packaged HiFi item I've ever bought and I've bought a few 😉, it was double boxed, padded, platter off, transit screws done, the works, arrived in 24 hours from time of sale too. I left the ebay seller + feedback as he was a credit to eBay sellers everywhere. I wish more eBayers would take as much care.
So, although it's meant for my PC room, it's now playing in the living room as my SP10 MKII is currently armless having sold my Fidelity Research arm (yeah, thanks Oli 😂).
Its a wee cracker and I think it would give your cheaper Regas and Projects a fright, in fact I'm sure it would embarrass a few mid range tables, in fact it's better than my first TT in about 30 years the Rega P3 and even my old Gyrodec would be sweating.
Well chuffed, be interesting to see if my wife notices it on top of the rack when she gets in from work tonight, if you don't hear from me again, well you'll know 😂😂😂
CAF Oli, CAF 😉 😂
