Beocenter 9300 line in/out

30 replies

On the back panel of my Beocenter 9300 there is a dummy plug inserted into what appears to be a line out. Can a plug be inserted into this spot and connected to a power amplifier? Is that line out the connection point between the pre-amp and the power amp of the 9300? Many thanks.

Strictly it is there to connect a graphic equaliser into the circuit.

It could be used for a power amp also.

Thank you Graham! Would this plug do the trick?

That depends, has the RCA plugs been connected to the output or input pins in the DIN ?
From the description I'd say it goes the wrong way. Maybe the seller has the other version too.

The RCA plugs would go into my power amp. The DIN plug would go into the line out, right?

Yes, but it still has to be connected to the correct pins inside the DIN.
Of the seven pins in the DIN; The two outer are for datalink communications, the center pin is
signal ground and the remaining four pins are outputs and inputs, left and right respectively.
The RCAs will be connected to either inputs or outputs, not both.
In other words, the cable could be for either playing something INTO the Beocenter or taking something OUT.
You will need a cable to take the signal out.

Thanks Dillen! There are four pins on my dummy plug so I figured that a few on this one would be redundant. What pin would you recommend to go from the line out to the RCA in of my power amp? Anything you can point me to on EBay? Thanks.

I suggest you ask the seller and let him know exactly what you need.

The four pins in the "dummy" simply connects left and right inputs to left and right outputs respectively to allow the
amplifier in the Beocenter to play (input) what comes from the built-in sources (output).

To put it diplomatically, the seller wouldn't know a DIN plug from a strip club. That's why I come here.  :)

I do the same assumption as Martin here, since the description says that it is for connecting a CD etc. to a Beo amp, it will not work for your purpose. Until today I have not found a similar cable that only "goes in the other direction". BUT for this purpose you should buy something like this
