AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent Beogram 5500 in white finish, an increasingly hard-to-find version in this condition.

Manufactured by the iconic Danish firm Bang & Olufsen, this model represents the perfect balance between precision engineering and minimalist Scandinavian design of the 80s.

A piece that not only plays music: it is also a design and collection object.

The unit has been tested and works correctly:
• Smooth and stable startup
• Operating automations
• Precise tonearm movement

It is delivered WITHOUT cartridge (no MMC needle), allowing the future owner to install the cartridge of their choice according to level and preference.

Integrated RIAA (practical advantage):

This unit includes an internal RIAA stage, allowing direct connection to the AUX / LINE input without the need for an external preamplifier.

Although the 5500 model did not include RIAA as standard, this integration provides a clear advantage for use in modern systems, facilitating installation and versatility.

The modification is properly implemented and does not affect the operation or aesthetics of the equipment.

Outstanding general condition for its age.

The top crystal shows light micro-scratches practically imperceptible, visible only under certain light and very common on this type of surface over time.
They do not affect operation or the overall presence of the set.

The white finish maintains a clean and uniform appearance, something especially difficult to find.

The Beogram 5500 in white finish is one of the most elegant and least common versions of the series.
Its minimalist and timeless design allows it to fit perfectly in both classic and contemporary interiors.
Beyond its excellent technical performance, it is a piece of Scandinavian design that transcends the functional, becoming a true collectible.
