The alternative would be a Beogram 8000 which is a definite step up from a 4500 or 5500.

Beogram 4500 - bypass the RIAA
14 replies
Seriously, just connect the pins 6 and 7 on the DIN plug and you will get remote control through the Aux channel.I don't think this will work, because being an RIAA equipped deck the datalink will already be on pin 7 and he already tried Tape 2. I think that when plugged into Tape 2 his Beogram 4500 will be controlled only after selecting PHONO on the remote, but of course the audio is not then connected. EDIT: Peter, you must be experiencing a little 'deja vu' 😀 - see /forum/general-discussion-and-questions/help-with-riaa-and-how-to-by-pass

Guy, thank you very much! That will do i think ;-)
And a german member, Christian from Hamburg, will give me advice!!!
Peter, thank you for your thoughts! Youre right its more worth with RIAA but its just to bypass not to throgh away the RIAA!
I bought the BG in first because it looks so beautiful with the BC9500 and then, its near Mint condition for little, very little money ;-)
So, i thank you all and I will gladly keep you up to date if you wish.
cheers Nils

Of interest, when I bought my first BC9500, which I bought new, the dealer also sold me a BG4500 as he had not realised it had a RIAA. Of course it produced a dreadful sound through the phono input and he rather shamefacedly replaced it with a 9500. I cannot remember what I did with the deck - I suspect it might be with the BC9500 which I lent to a friend many years ago! I will probably use a 4004 with my new 9500 if I need a record player.
