We sold and installed B&O back in the 70's, 80's and possibly to 1990. I liked their turntables, they measured well, tracked well, were fantastic with warped records and though a little bright on the high end those linear trackers were fantastic till they broke. We finally sent one of our techs to a seminar about repair the TT's and really didn't have any issues after that. Keeping them clean, hard to do in the Southwest, and lubricated properly was the key. The TT with semi automatic arms were ok, and I enjoyed the sound of the SP series cartridges. Their cassette machines and integrated recievers were different but sounded great. Speakers could range from so so to state of the art. I particularly like 5700/02 with Celestion mids and tweeters and Phillips woofers and PR's. The M series and S series had similar sounds but none of them matched the 5700. The idea of the suck-out fill driver never really impressed me. Late B&O towers with built in amps were a big disappointment to e though folks who loved modern furniture and some women thought they were last word in sound and appearance.
