Beosound Century

5 replies

 Hello everyone ! I recently bought a used Century in very good condition. Works fine but I have two questions. I know I can record on the tape from radio or from the CD. Is there any way to record on the tape a conversation or from an outside source in general? Do you need a microphone? ( Where do I connect one? ). I do not see a build in microphone. My second question is regarding the speakers. Are they the same as a pair of Beolab 2500? Some told me yes some told me no and I am confused. Thank you all for your time! Ragards, Spiros.

 

 

Hello,

 

Century has got AUX input (DIN) on the back, so you got posibility to connect any source. Record player and microphone require mic/phono stage.

Beolab 2500 have better specifications, but the sound quality is not that much better. Century sounds good as well.

Thank you for your quick reply! Any microphone that is recommended? Thank you again.
