Dear friends,

I own a Beosystem 6500 (CD, Ampli, Turntable and Beocord) with BeoVox 5000 speakers (I recently sold my 20-year old CX 100 on eBay). I would love to be able to get DAB radio and I was considering adding a Cambridge 640.

I would love to hear suggestions, ideas on how to best add DAB to my system.

Thank you and happy 2019!

RR

Hi RR,

Yes, the Cambridge Audio 640T DAB tuner is a very good product, this can connect to the Tape or CD input of the Beomaster 6500 with this cable to play through the B&O system:-

You could also look at these tuners which integrate fully into B&O systems and have internet radio too. They will work with the Beo4 and also link systems if you have it connected up as such.
