Hey everyone!
I come from the depths of the Audiokarma.org boards to ask you a specific B&O question that not many can answer over there, hoping you can shed some light.
I have a line on a Beocenter 7000, so the gentleman tells me, and he tells me that other than a broken hinge on the TT lid and a non-working tape recorder, the unit is in full working order. I asked him about the needle and stylus as I've heard these are very expensive to replace, and he said it looked and worked fine.
One thing that puzzles me after reading his description is that he says it comes with the remote and two 'original' speakers. If I read correctly, only the Beocenter 7700 had a remote? Perhaps it was a simple typo. As for the speakers, were these units sold in 'home theatre packages' back in the day? Could anyone share some info on what speakers might have come with the unit? I realize that probably is a shot in the dark, but I'm too impatient for tomorrow night when I go and look at (and buy the unit).
He's asking $80 CAD for the unit, speakers and remote. I read that this is a pretty good deal so I'm making the drive to go check it out. What are your thoughts? I appreciate all advice!
Matt.
