Play music from vinyl records and smartphones

Taking over the intention of Jacob Jensen, who designed the Beogram 4000 at the time, the engineers now have a remote control with 18 Beolab stereo speakers built into a pearl-injected titanium-like aluminum and walnut body. It can be operated. You can also play music from your smartphone via wireless connection.

Sticking to the turntable

The turntable has a "dance proof" system that absorbs shocks using leaf springs, is resistant to external vibrations, and prevents needles from flying. Since the arm does not move diagonally like the conventional type, it moves in a straight line inward, so we are particular about producing a sound that is faithful to the original sound by the needle entering the groove at the same angle as the record was cut.View this post on Instagram Posts shared by Bang & Olufsen (@bangolufsen)

Is David Bowie a bonus?

The walnut case is a shelf that can store records, and four albums released in 1972 were selected by Bang & Orfsen and included as a bonus. The four are famous albums such as David Bowie's "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy", Paul Simon's debut, The Allman Brothers Band's "Eat a Peach", and Carly Simon's "No Secrets". .. I wondered if classical music would be a bonus, but I'm a little surprised that it's rock and pop.

Limited to 30 at celebrity prices

The price is a whopping $ 45,000 (about 5.17 million yen), and production is limited to only 30 units. Are you a core B & O fan, or an unrivaled music enthusiast or oil tycoon? I also want to know what kind of music the purchaser listens to. Source: YouTube, Instagram via Bang & Olufsen via NEW ATLAS, uncrate
