Seller 1st class, and goods sent off immediatelyBeoGram CD3500 Compact Disc PlayerManufactured: 1988 - 1994 Designer: Jacob Jensen Colours: GreyThe sound reproduction achieved by Bang & Olufsens CD 3500 CD player was truly outstanding. It plays both 12cm and 8cm compact discs and has an ingenious step function which allows you to go straight to a chose track selected from anywhere on the disc. The CD player was one of the most technologically-advanced pieces of hi-fi on the market at the time and yet was one of the easiest to operate. The explicit display always indicated what the CD player was doing all the time - for example, which track was being played, and how many tracks there were on the played compact disc. This new model was a welcome addition to the range, because for the first time in the series of audio separates that started with the Beomaster 1900, a compact disc player was made available that not only matched the shape and size of the Beomaster (and Beocord), but could also be hung on the wall alongside it. The previous CD players for these systems, the Beogram CDX and CD3300, had been quite bulky and were suitable for horizontal running only. Electronically, the Beogram CD 4500 carried much over from the previous CD 3300. It used the same Philips 16 bit chipset and basic analogue filters (the sophisticated analogue circuitry and power supply sections from the Beogram CD5500 and its derivatives were not used). As had been seen before, though a new mechanism that was smaller and lighter than the CDM-4 in the previous model was chosen. The drastic reduction in size that was achieved was as a result of dispensing with the die-cast inner frame (from the very early Philips CD100) that had been used in the CD X and CD 3300, and by using a specially designed layout for the printed panel, in preference to the Philips OEM one used in the CD 3300 and Beocenter 9000/9500. In addition, springs were added to support the mechanism when the unit was suspended vertically, which were engaged through slots in the back if required.Prices1990£445 BeoGram CD3500 Compact Disc Player Product Specifications Power supply: 5171: 220V 5172: 240V 5173: 120V 5174: 100V 5175: 240V Power consumption: 23 W Dimensions W x H x D: 42 x 7 x 24.5cm Weight: 4.5 kg Link compatibility: Datalink Frequency range: 3 - 20,000 Hz +/- 0.3 dB Signal-to-noise ratio: > 100 dB / 110 dB A-weighted Dynamic range: > 96 dB Harmonic distortion incl. noise: < 0.0025% at 0 dB; < 0.025 at -20 dB Channel separation: > 101 dB Channel difference: < 0.08 dB Converter system: 16 bit, 4 x oversampling 176.4 kHz Low pass filter: Digital + Bessel/elliptical analogue Damping: > 20,000 Hx > 50 dB Phase error between L and R 0 degree at 20 - 20,000 Hz Output analogue: 1.3 V RMS at 0 dB Output digital: For digital equipment PLEASE ADD TO YOUR WATCH LIST AND FAVOURITES AND CHECK BACK FREQUENTLY.
