Beovision 500

(1970) 17” mono TV

Description

A single standard monochrome model with a 17” tube. This was the last of a long line of valved sets in the monochrome range, and represented the peak of development of this type of television. Of particular note was the automatic gain control system, which was engineered to provide stable results even in difficult reception conditions. The sets sold in the UK still included a three band tuner, even though only the UHF position was used. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.

Excellent sound, as one would expect from B&O, was part of the package, with a large loudspeaker, treble control and preset bass control, adjusted by the dealer, inside the set. Text copyright © Beocentral. Unauthorised reproduction prohibited.
