I cannot remember if my first buy was a Beolit 505 or my Beosystem 2400. Both were bought new from Windows of the Arcade - a wonderful shop with wonderful staff.

I had seen the 2400 and fallen in love with it so bought that, a Beogram 1902 and Beovox P30s. Lovely system and still one of the best looking.

My first purchase was in 1993. It was a BeoCom 1401. It was the only thing in the San Francisco Union Square store that I could afford at the time. 🙂

My first REAL purchase was made the following year. I bought an MX-5500 with floor stand, BeoCord VX-5000 and a pair of BeoLab 8000 speakers.

I eventually traded up the VCR to a DVD-1 about 10 years later, but I still have all of my original things.

Beocenter 4000 and x25 speakersin the early /mid '80's thought we were the dogs b*llocks - the kids thought it was a great p[iece of kit for early ripping of tapes!

The piece came from a shop in Worcester who were in the throws of ending the BnO connection - think I paid around £400 for it!

After a prolonged period I again saw the light and in 2000 bought a demo BC9300 from a franchise in Stoke on Trent - used it wth the x25's then really saw the light and bought sonme Penta vox - that really openned theb BnO door!

My first was Beocenter 9300 with Beovox RL 6000 speakers. I bought them because my neighbour bought Beocenter 9000 with Redline speakers in the 80`s and I was so envious! So I worked a whole summer when I was 17 saving all my money for my first B&O, and never regreted it 🤒

My father is quite an audio aficionado and I grew up with Quads and B&O's in the house. My first purchase was a BeoSound 2000 (aka Century) CD/tape/radio from the B&O shop in Palo Alto, CA. It was 1997 and I brought it over to New Hampshire where I was attending boarding school. As teenagers we were all into bass at the time so I had the Century modified to provide a variable line output so it could be hooked up to a subwoofer 😁. It continued to serve wonderfully as my main system through my college and graduate school years. It was not until just last year that I upgraded to the Lab 9's. The Century is still in great shape, enjoying its "retirement" as a secondary system.

I can't recall the order in which I bought them, but I got a BeoCom 1401 and a poster set early on in my career. Still have the posters. Must have given the phone away at some point.

I remember my first B&O purchase in 1970 as it was the day of yesterday. I visited my brother (who was a B&O dealer at that time) and saw a white Beomaster 3000 together with a Beogram 3000 and a pair of Beovox 3702 speakers. I instantly felt in love with the design and overall performance of that system and bought a similar set in rosewood right away. That was the start of a very long "relationship' with B&O. And ever since I guess I must have acquired and trade in over 50 B&O Beomasters, Beograms, Beocords, Beovox's, BeoLabs, Beosounds, Beovisions, etc. etc. ... and... actually...in spite of all the (negative) developments over the last years, I still love the brand!
