A friend has a Bg8000 and wonders if his Beomaster 6500 can control it through the Phono-DIN.
He doesn't want to connect the unit before I've checked here for him (having already fritzed a Sugden amp, he's become wary).
Anyone know? Is it safe? Does the Bg8000 have RIAA built in?
It will work with a Beomaster 5500 but not easily with the 6500 - the Beogram 8000 has no RIAA and neither does the BM6500. In addition, the wrong pins used in the DIN plug for remote control - connect 6&7 together for this. You will need an external RIAA.
My B&O Icons:
My friend has an external RIAA. He has it connected to AUX now, but I suddenly thought it moght be possible to connect the Bg8000 directly, but remembered something about the Bg8000 not having the internal RIAA that's in the Beogram 6500.
Thanks.
