Seller's Description

Bang & Olufsen BeoSound Century Typ 2651 Stereoanlage

Das Gerät geht an und läuft, allerdings hängt der Mechanismus zur Öffnung und Schließung. Tapedeck CD und Radio laufen jedoch problemlos.

Guter optischer Zustand mit normalen Gebrauchsspuren. Die Stoffabdeckung hat leichte Verschmutzungen, die jedoch gereinigt werden können. Siehe Bilder für Details.

Our Thoughts RADAR AI

€180 looks fair to slightly good against the local used market: it sits below the €203 median but above the €160 25th percentile, so this is not a bargain-bin buy, yet it is comfortably in sensible territory.

What makes it appealing is the BeoSound Century’s mix of compact design, tidy industrial styling, and genuinely enjoyable all-in-one usability; with cables and accessories included, you’re closer to plug-and-play than with many older B&O pieces. At this price, I’d view it as a worthwhile pickup if the unit is fully functional, since these systems are best bought for condition and completeness as much as for the model name.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Bang & Olufsen

Bang & Olufsen was founded on November 17, 1925, in Struer, Denmark, by engineers Peter Bang and Svend Olufsen. The company began in the attic of the Olufsen family manor, Quistrup, where the founders developed The Eliminator—a revolutionary device that allowed radios to operate from mains electricity rather than batteries. This innovation established B&O as a forward-thinking manufacturer and set the tone for nearly a century of technological advancement rooted in Danish design principles.

The brand is primarily known for premium audio and home entertainment systems, including high-fidelity receivers, radiograms, cassette recorders, and contemporary loudspeakers. B&O pioneered several category firsts: the world's first button-operated receiver in the 1930s and Europe's first cassette recorder, the Beocord-84U, in the 1950s. Today, the company manufactures integrated audio systems, wireless speakers, and headphones that blend acoustic engineering with sculptural industrial design.

Bang & Olufsen occupies the luxury segment of the audio market, positioned as a premium lifestyle brand rather than a specialist audiophile manufacturer. The company's reputation rests on its distinctive philosophy of merging form and function—treating audio equipment as crafted objects designed to enhance living spaces aesthetically. Recognized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York and maintained as a visionary enterprise for over a century, B&O appeals to discerning consumers who value Scandinavian design sensibility alongside sonic performance.
