It is beautiful... and fits suprisingly well beside that modern turntable! 🤒

Looking at and listening to, collected, restored and playing B&O vintage equipment is like Xmas every day. And yes it is beautiful.

Welcome to the 608 'owners club'.  Next, you could invest in a proper TT to match it.  Enjoy it.  I use mine almost every day.

Congratulation from me too. Really very nice set!

As Dave said, it will not take a long and you will want the matching TT. Lets try to predict: For example in the future you could want to get a nice oldlink or the version link with the larger platter and longer tonearm 😕

And than you will want to own the matching link and eventually the stunning link or maybe the less space consuming link...

But maybe I am wrong, maybe you have a better protection against the Beovirus and you will resist 😁

We would be happy to hear from you in the future

A lovely set there. I have the 610 version which is black rather than blue, but equally striking I think!

Also pretty unusual, especially here in the UK. Mine used to be owned by someone who worked at B&O in the 1960s.

One day I'd love to get the matching tuner as Theo mentioned!

Hi Ben,

I own the export black version 610 too and I like the look of it, even more as the look of the blue 608. The only problem is that there is no really matching tuner version for it. Unfortunately the Minette 609K was made only with a grey/blue front. 🙁

What a beautiful slim tuner it would be with a black front!

Thanks guys! A proper TT is standing next to it ;) Not per see a B&O freak... I think the combination of old and new is beautiful. The Type SD (Still can't find anything on them, just the same and S 607) Speakers are already bought. :)

My friend has got the export version in black btw. But I do like the blue version combined with the white record player... gives some color to the living room :)

It was tongue in cheek!  I've got a Transcriptors Saturn next to my Beolab 5000 system.  Not everything is B&O though it isn't actually connected to the Beolab - more for a Clockwork Orange moment rather than use.

Is it a Project TT?

Dave.

Haha... I thought so ;)  I've got a Beogram though...

It is indeed a pro-ject RPM 1.3 real value for money imho
