WOW, now that is retro, a lean mean 1970'ies sub, how about a pair of beolab 3 in that colour? Best regards Christian

Hi there I just bought a Beocord 5000 on a flee-market for 150£, it is the two-head model, not the first 3 head i think. It is in running condition, but has a tendency to stop playing or rewinding after some seconds, as if it thinks the tape has ended.
