For the first time, since 1989, a turntable is back in the living room....via a optical cable to a Core box...looking forward...

There is a tv - and there is a BV.

Always something to learn working with B&O 😁

No, there a converter in between, as the Core has digital input

The line-in connection of the Core doubles as analog and optical/digital.

Why not use the direct way from analog to analog?

Did you try both ways?

Which ADC did you use, by the way?

There is 11 meter from the turntable to one of two technical rooms in my house - inside the walls.

I have a optical cable of 10 m in the wall. Next to the turntable is a Lindy high-end analog to digital converter

Well, now the major question comes - what is the weakest part:

The Beogram 3500, MMC 1 pickup, ADC, optical cable, sample frequency of 48 kHz in the Core, The Core itself, the optical/spdif converter of the Beolab 5, or the LP with noice or my 56 years old ears.

Well, I just toke one more Brandy and enjoyed the total different sound than from Deezer Hifi....😁

Thanks Rudi,

for the explanation....

.....and for the β€˜advice’ to have a(nother) brandy ;-)

Enjoy your nice setup and the MUSIC playing.
