On my search for an SP cartridge I found a gold-coloured SP8-9. Does anyone know if this could be original? The B&O logo and the text sayin SP8-9 look nice, but I have never seen one before. The picture of the Beogram 3000 here on Beoworld also seems to show a gold-coloured SP cartridge, but this might just be wishfull thinking ...

Does anyone remember a recent Beogram 3000 (e-bay) price? There is an original Acoustical 3100 for sale on the same website where I found my Beogram 3000 and the bids reached EUR 450,- already! 😉

My SP8-9 is gold but I have a feeling that it came with another name on the packaging.

As to a price on eBay, I have never seen an Acoustical 3000 on eBay!

Ok, I'll go for it then! (Are there also silver SP-9's?)

No Beogram 3000's on eBay either? I'm just curious about my luck, it's not for sale!

I bought mine for £100 - someone contacted me about it and neither of us knew exactly what it was.  I was looking for the Thorens model at the time. We decided it might have been a prototype so I made him an offer which he accepted! Ronny Mortensen at Struer told me what I had and sent me the service manual, which is on site.
