Ive always wanted one.....but.


Found a B&O beogram 4004 for $200. It works sometimes. The seller says he'll get it going before any money changes hands... I read a lot of revues of B&O gear...mostly bad revues. I'm about ready to blow this one off. If somebody can render an opinion Id like to hear it.

Say, wasn't that the turntable without anti skate? It canted the cartridge at some angle to the record to keep it in the groove if I recall correctly. Not exactly state of the art. It does belong in a museum, however. 😀
  I remember the Beogram 4004 and I don't recall it being a particularly good or reliable unit. Last time I was in a B &O store, it was in  a mall in southern California. Totally unimpressed. No offense to anyone, but isn't B & O kind of a overpriced non-audiophile Danish Bose?

If I understand you correctly, this doesn't really work consistently, and most of the reviews that you've read weren't favorable.


So why do you want it?


If $200.00 is a considerable amount of money for you, such that if you have to just throw it away, it would hurt you, why would you even risk it?
