The BeoSound 9000 is the ultimate

music entertainment centre, an

impressive CD player with a built-in

radio. A technological revelation, a

masterpiece of craftsmanship as well

as a decorative piece of art.

The system can be placed anywhere

you want music – in traditional

placements; on a table or hanging on

a wall, or in a novel, original

placement; on the specially designed,

vertical stand. All in all, the choice is

entirely up to you.

The BeoSound 9000 represents a new

and visual way of experiencing music.

Please refer to the quick guide on

pages 8-9 to experience ‘what you see

is what you hear’…
