And finally, the man that did all this! Frede Kristensen. I now have two classic and very special pieces of B&O to cherish forever, which will join my pristine Beovox 5000 and Beovox 2500 cubes. A set i'm very proud to own and my very own piece of B&O history. Thank you to Classic Audio and Frede. May you keep restoring as many of these

Test Results..

Accompanying the book is a folder with full test results for each component as well as certificates of authenticity proving these products were restored inside and out to as new or better specs. A beautiful memento to keep with the units.

Again, the attention to detail Frede shows - and the level of service, is amazing. You get you own hardback book telling you all about the Beolab 5000 system with details of your own units and test results handwritten inside, all hand signed by Frede..

The obligatory 'arty shot'... All of these photo's were taken on my iPhone4, so please excuse the quality in some cases.

And here they are, together!

Would you just look at that. A very special piece of hi-fi..

... and finally - unveiled. Beautiful. The wood looks as fresh as the day it left Struer and every other part does too.. I'm delighted!

And again the lovely 'Frede's magic hands have healed this unit' labels on the underside this time.. (I don't read Danish so it could say that!)

Again, wrapped carefully..
