AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Bang & Olufsen Beogram CD 6500 compact disc player, designed by Jacob Jensen and manufactured in Denmark (circa 1989–1991). The unit has been technically serviced and is fully functional again, so the loading mechanism, disc recognition and playback operate reliably once more. Visually the device has been refreshed and the housing looks substantially neater than before, with light signs of use consistent with its age.

Within the leading Beosystem 6500, the Beogram CD 6500 forms the digital hub, characterized by its ultra-slim profile and sleek aluminum finish. Behind the minimalist front panel lies high-grade industrial technology: the renowned Philips CDM-4 tilt-arm system combined with a dual 16-bit digital-to-analog conversion with fourfold oversampling. This combination is known for its unparalleled reliability, excellent error correction and a remarkably musical, analog-tinged sound character without digital harshness.

In terms of sound, the player delivers an open, transparent and dynamic soundscape with much depth and a very low noise floor. The motorized aluminum tray glides smoothly outward after a light touch on the front panel. In addition to the analog signal transfer via the 7-pin DIN cable with full Datalink support for communication with other B&O equipment, the unit is equipped with a digital coaxial output (S/PDIF) for direct connection to an external digital-to-analog converter.
