Description

The Beogram 3300 was a re-styled Beogram 3000 made to match the Beosystem 3300. The styling changes included changing from a theme of black to one of light grey, and adding bold graphics to label the keys on the lid. With these changes and those made to the Beomaster, the two units now matched each other quite well, though of course there was still no disguising that the Beogram was still far deeper that the Beomaster. No changes were made technically and so performance remained the same. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.

The re-style of the Beogram 3000 into the 3300 was perhaps not the most successful that B&O had ever done, and the appearance quickly went from “trendy” to “dated” as the years passed, not something that one normally associates with B&O products.

The Beogram 3300 was replaced with two models as the range diverged, the Beogram 3500 and the Beogram 4500. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.
