BeoCenter 2000

Beocenter 2000 was a compact high fidelity music system incorporating an FM/AM tuner, a 2 x 25 watts RMS stereo amplifier, an integrated record player and a high quality cassette deck.

The semi-automatic stereo record player benefited from Bang & Olufsen’s unique engineering method (integration) which ensured that all components were matched to give optimum performance. The (then) newly designed low-mass pickup with its MMC 20 S cartridge was an example.

Operating the radio and cassette sections was equally straight-forward. Sliding controls regulated volume, bass, treble and balance. Four FM stations could be pre-set for subsequent push button recall. The cassette deck had a green/red indicator that made it easy to set accurate recording levels. You just needed to add headphones and/or a pair of Beovox speakers for a complete entertainment system. Beocenter 2000 is incorporated with Beovox S45 loudspeakers to make up Beosystem 2000.

 

The SC20 system cabinet, designed specifically for Beocenter 2000 provided a functional and elegant furnishing option. It lifted Beocenter 2000 to the correct operating height and stored LPs, cassettes and other audio accessories within easy reach.

Dimensions: 77 x 74 x 35cm. Finish: teak or rosewood veneer
