When Frede in his email in March 2023 asked if I was interested in becoming the new owner of Classic Audio, he surely understood that he started lots of parallel thoughts in my head. As I had just then started a process and a plan for how I could help other B&O enthusiasts with refurbished systems, Frede’s suggestion came very timely. My started process and my plans had to fall by the wayside and instead I focused on how he and I would move forward.
After countless emails, exchange of information and several visits to Venø outside Struer, the time has come: Classic Audio now has a new owner and new management:
My name is Dick Andersson, 63 years old and living with my daily work in Örebro, Sweden. Here I live a good life with my love Monica and my dog Iris.
Since 2012, I have shared pictures and my thoughts about the beloved devices from Bang & Olufsen on ny Facebook page I named ”Beomaster”. The page’s description is ”This is no longer an addiction. It’s a freak show” and that’s probably how the page has been perceived from time to time. The many nice systems and devices that I wrote about and showed pictures of there (I still have most of them) probably suggest that the collection has probably passed ”addiction”!
Since autumn 2023, I and my things have been in suitable premises a short walk from my home. Here I have a showroom, demo room, workshop, warehouse and office, and here I am happy to receive visits from anyone who wants to experience good examples of the best Bang & Olufsen could offer during the 60s, 70s and 80s.
When I met and spoke with Frede, I was struck by his desire to be able to perform the perfect sound and also to be measure and present it in numbers or a graph. To do this, Frede has worked out methods that then resulted in Classic Audio’s famus Certificate. All Classic Audio products are certified in this way.
High quality and innovation are characteristics that distinguish Classic Audio. Rarely do you see such well-executed craftsmanship or documentation of the same class as with the certificated products from Venø.
There is a lot to live up to for a follower and I will do my very best. To begin with, I will continue Frede’s work, in his spirit, with the intention to broaden the product range to more model series in the future.
With me, I already have the passion for these uniquely designed machines and I have a good knowledge of how they work and should work. It remains to put this into practice!
Thank you Frede, for everything you have done for our beloved devices! Now I feel the responsibility to continue your work.

Thank you for the glass panel.
It arrived safely today!

I’m sorry but you don’t seem to have an answer on this question.
The important thing is not that the output is doubled. What interests me is if it is possible to do and if anyone has a solution.
I would like to switch the stereo amplifier to a mono amplifier in order to get a higher output from the single channel than from either of the originals.
I would love to get the glass section from your 8000.
Do you still have it?
