£60 sits above the £42 median but below the £75 upper quartile, so it reads as slightly keen rather than overpriced for this used market. It is not a bargain at the 25th percentile, but it is still within the normal spread for a decent example, especially if the listing is clean and complete.
This is a worthwhile buy if you need a proper B&O control accessory rather than a generic remote: Beolink gear is well-regarded for solid build, tidy ergonomics, and keeping classic Bang & Olufsen systems easy to live with. The upside is strongest if it’s original, fully working, and includes the battery cover or any adapter/cable pieces that often go missing; if condition is vague, I’d want clear photos of the buttons, battery contacts, and any wear before paying full asking.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
