The Bang & Olufsen Beosystem 3000c turntable is the high-end audio brand's latest addition to its Recreated Classics series that will offer discerning audiophiles alike with the perfect option for their setup. The turntable comes in the form of a restored 1985 Beogram 3000 model that has been stripped down, rebuilt and paired with some of the brand's signature speakers. The turntable is thus built from the ground-up all over again to give it a profile that's at once modern and retro.
The Bang & Olufsen Beosystem 3000c turntable is limited to just 100 examples crafted with pearl-blasted aluminum and artisan walnut. The semi-automatic turntable with Beolab 8 speakers is priced at $30,000 to further enhance the exclusivity.
