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 refurbished and restored to full working order, so the loading mechanism, disc recognition and playback all work reliably again. The exterior has also been attended to, and the casing is in considerably neater condition than before, with light signs of use consistent with its age.
Within the flagship Beosystem 6500, the Beogram CD 6500 serves as the digital centerpiece, distinguished by its ultra-slim profile and clean aluminium finish. Behind the minimalist front panel lies high-quality engineering: the renowned Philips CDM-4 swing-arm system combined with dual 16-bit digital-to-analogue conversion and four-times oversampling. This combination is known for its exceptional reliability, excellent error correction and remarkably musical, analogue-toned sound, free from digital harshness.
Sonically, the player delivers an open, transparent and dynamic soundstage with plenty of depth and an exceptionally low noise floor. The motorised aluminium tray glides smoothly out at a light touch of the front panel. In addition to analogue signal output 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-analogue converter.
