Dumb question regarding Beogram 1600

3 replies

I recently fulfilled a lifelong objective and purchased a B&O - a nice little Beogram RX-2. As expected, I have fallen in love with the thing. and have decided that I need another one for my downstairs listening pleasure. A local seller has a 1600 for sale for $100 - supposedly the cartridge is fine and everything is operational. But I don't know much about the 1600's and that's where I need your help. 

Is there anything in particular I need to be aware of before buying this unit? Is it compatable with non-B&O receivers or will I need to purchase some type of adaptor? Any positive or negative opinions on this model?

Many thanks!!
