THE FOLLOWING IS COURTESY OF BEOWORLDBeoMaster 5000 Tuner/AmplifieManufactured: 1983 - 1986Designer: Jacob JensenColours: AluminiumLong, medium and FM wavebands were featured on this high-technology 2 x 55 watts receiver that served as the heart of Beosystem 5000 introduced in 1983.A frequency-synthesized tuner with automatic fine tuning and two-speed manual drive all contributed to fast, accurate location of radio programmes and superb reception quality. Nine station frequencies (on any combination of wavebands) could be stored in the Beomasters microcomputer memory for instant recall.The low-distortion stereo amplifier included a very advanced feature, unique to Bang & Olufsen: Automatic Power Handling Control. This special circuit continuously monitored the dynamic range and power of the signal and instructed the microcomputer to decrease volume if the combined effects of these two parameters threatened to cause amplifier clipping or damage to the speakers. This type of overload became increasingly common since the introduction of the Compact Disc, which can produce signals of enormous dynamic range, but it could not occur in Beomaster 5000.An internal, variable-speed fan ensured the proper dissipation of heat, even when the Beomaster was used in a stack format. Direct operation of all primary functions was available on the Beomaster itself should the Master Control Panel not be to hand. These controls were located beneath a hinged cover which sprang open at a touchBeomaster 5000 had no visible controls. Normal operation was by means of the Master Control Panel - a slim, table-top keypad that gave chair-side access to all functions including microcomputer programming and storage, timer facilities, status check, day and clock display, volume, tone and stereo balance adjustments and control of all sound sources. A programme-sequencing facility allowed you to pre-plan a whole evenings listening composed of record, radio and cassette music in any order and combination. Once set, this command performance would play continuously as instructed without further use of the controlsBeoGram 5000 Record DeckManufactured: 1983 - 1986Designer: Jacob JensenColours: AluminiumBeogram 5000s radial-tracking record deck was the perfect match for Beomaster 5000. Operation was entirely automatic. One touch on the PLAY control started the motor and activated the decks logic circuits which assessed the size and correct speed of the record and instructed the arm to lower the stylus into the run-in groove. This was a very fast-acting yet highly accurate control system which gave you music within about 8 seconds - far more quickly and gently than the human hand could guarantee. This system was also error-proof; for example, it was impossible to lower the stylus unless there was a record on the turntable, so expensive mistakes and accidents just couldnt happen.BeoGram CD6500 Compact Disc PlayerManufactured: 1989 - 1992Designer: Jacob JensenColours: Silver, Black, Whitef you wanted to indulge yourself with the finest sound quality then youd do no better than listening to your favourite pieces of music on Bang & Olufsens Beogram CD 6500. Beogram CD 6500 was a replacement for its predecessor, Beogram CD 5500.It played both 12cm and 8cm compact discs, and housed sophisticated and advanced digital technology. And it offered sound reproduction which would satisfy even the most demanding of listeners.BeoCord 6500 Cassette DeckManufactured: 1989 - 1991Designer: Jacob JensenColours: Aluminium, WhiteA light touch to the front of the Beocord 6500 cassette recorder released the loader which glided out slowly and silently in order to allow you to insert a cassette. You could use whichever type of cassette you prefer; or choose between Dolby B or C Noise Reduction systems... and rejoice in Bang & Olufsens patented HX-PRO recording system which ensured optimal sound reproduction, particularly in the difficult, high-frequency range. And, naturally, Beocord 6500 had auto-reverse so that both sides of the tape played as one. Beocord 6500 could be used as part of the Beosystem 6500hi-fi system. Auto Record level One of the less-pleasant chores in making a recording is setting level control to its optimum position. Setting it too low raises the level of background noise on the recording. Setting it too high makes the recording distorted at high music levels. With this in mind, Bang and Olufsen introduced an automatic record mode which was called Auto Record. Auto Record worked in two steps: when the record button was pressed for the first time, the cassette recorder went into a record pause mode, where the incoming signal was monitored. Under microprocessor control, the highest level was monitored and the record level was set at the optimum level for that music. On pressing the record button the second time, the tape was set in motion and the recording started, but continuing to make minor adjustments. If at any time during the recording, the level of music rose above the monitored level, the level control was lowered by exactly the amount required for the new optimum recording level. This method of setting the level control closely imitated the action of a highly skilled recording engineer, if asked to set the level for a recording. It was the best that could be done when the full recording could not be monitored before recording started. This feature incorporated a new method of monitoring the signal, which proved to be a more effective method over conventional methods. It was patented by the company with the patent number 158702.Master Control Panel 5000Manufactured: 1983 - 1987Designer: Jacob JensenColours: Silver, GreyThe main remote control for the Beosystem 5000, the MCP 5000 allowed full control of your Beosystem from your armchair. Two way control allowed the status of the system to be ascertained easily and complex timer programming was possible using the controls under the flip down panel.
