Beocenter 2100 - three variations and a one-finger exercise
Beocenters 2200, 2100 and 4000 - each with a totally distinctive style but sharing the unmistakeable themes of Bang & Olufsen quality and simplicity.
If you loved true hi-fi but you weren't a record fan, then Bang & Olufsen 'had your radio perfectly taped'! Beocenter 2100 had all the features of Beocenter 2200 but without the record deck so that it took up even more of a conveniently small space.
Beovox X25 loudspeakers were the offered choice but you could equally mix and match the Beocenter with any other Bang & Olufsen speaker on the market at that time. When linked with Beovox X25 loudspeakers, the combined system was known as Beosystem 2100. A recommended record deck to complement your system would be either the Beogram RX2 or TX2.
