Bang & Olufsen recently announced the launch of the Beosystem 3000c Dune Grey Edition, a complete music system centred on a restored Beogram 3000 Series turntable originally released in 1985, paired with modern Beolab 8 speakers. As part of the Recreated Classics programme, the Beosystem 3000c celebrates a lasting relationship with music listening – where well-made audio designs become part of people’s lives and remain relevant over time.
“Our Recreated Classics Programme goes beyond the preservation of nostalgia. It is about honouring the fact that exceptional audio designs continue to matter to people over time and are rediscovered across generations. The Beosystem 3000c represents a slower, more intentional way of listening, built around ritual, presence and emotional connection to music”, says Mads Kogsgaard Hansen, Director of Product Circularity at Bang & Olufsen and continues:
“By restoring the turntables in Struer and pairing them with modern streaming speakers, we extend their life – and give a new generation the chance to experience what has made them endure for decades.”
Restored listening, refined design
The Beosystem 3000c brings together the tactile ritual of vinyl and the flexibility of contemporary listening in one compact music system. At the centre is an original, restored Beogram 3000 Series turntable (launched in 1985), paired with Beolab 8 stereo speakers that seamlessly connect analogue listening with modern streaming experiences – reflecting Bang & Olufsen’s belief that Beautiful Sound should endure and evolve with the way people listen today.
The new Dune Grey Edition pairs a soft matte aluminium body with rich dark walnut details, balancing precision with warmth and tactility. Inspired by the tones and textures of the Nordic coastline, the refined material palette reflects Bang & Olufsen’s enduring approach to design – where timeless simplicity, natural materials and emotional resonance give the music system a calm, understated presence.
When audio design earns a second life
Sourced from around the world and returned to Bang & Olufsen’s headquarters in Struer, each product is carefully restored, reimagined and reassembled by hand by Bang & Olufsen specialists – balancing preservation with renewed craftsmanship and contemporary material updates.
Rather than reproducing the past, the Recreated Classics programme explores why certain designs continue to resonate across generations. Each piece becomes a distinctive interpretation of an iconic original, shaped by the idea that Beautiful Sound is not defined by novelty alone, but by the emotional connection people build with the objects they choose to live with over time.
Limited to 100 worldwide
The Dune Grey Edition is strictly limited to 100 pieces worldwide, with each unit individually numbered and uniquely engraved, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity – making it a collector’s piece.
