    I love the Sixties!

    After a few years of collecting B&O and having loads of things from different decades I decided that it would make sense to concentrate on one era. As I wasn't going to get rid of my BL5000 system I thought that the mid to late sixties would be the period to collect. So a few things have just joined the stable and I thought I would share some pictures.

    A 900k. Its an early one judging by the numbers.

    Beocord 2000 T. Doubt I'll ever really use it, but it looks nice.

    Beomaster 1000 and Type B speakers. I really like the look of the white key version.

    Here's an overall picture. I have a BM3000 slide rule too, but thats connected to the computer so couldn't get in to the pictures.

    BL5000 set up sitting on the 900RG Compact and being kept company by a Beolit 1000 oh and a 42v record deck.

    The Penta's might not be from the right period but they go really well with the 5000.

    Hopefully there's not much more I need to complete the collection. Cubes would be nice but they wouldn't get used. A BG 3000 would complete everything but they are rather hard to come by.

    Great collection, the sixties do have some awesome equipment!  I like the Beomaster and Beolab 5000 of course, and the 42v record deck as well.  I wonder who still sells blank "reel" tape?  I'm assuming someone does, but I haven't looked for any in a long time.  I'd be curious to see how the beocord sounds.

    Very nice! I would get the cubes though! They do make quite a difference - very useful for widening the sound stage.

    Very interesting collection - I think this era may well be the high point in build quality which started to drop at the end of the 70s.
