Moment and Vinyl

12 replies
Hi Guys,

I have a moment on order but I wonder if there are any people who have experience with connecting a record player to it? My player is non b&o but has a pre-amp on/off option.

My setup will be moment with bl17+bl19

Your record player will act as any other device, that is connected to the line in of the Soundheart.

You will - of course - have to activate the preamp on the player.

Please note that you can adjust the input sensitivity level of the line input port in the settings of the Soundheart.

If you have set up your BS Moment in a B&O network, you can listen to the record player from any of the connected devices.

....the Soundheart ? Erm.. 

Cool, thanks MM for confirming.

I love the good quality flac tracks from my own NAS, or Streaming unknown tracks from Deezer, but some evenings, nothing beats a jazzy record with the minor crackling of the needle and record 😁

Yeah, when I'm sitting on the couch with a bottle of single malt, there's nothing better than having to get up every 20 min to flip the LP. Good sobriety test, when it gets to where I have to crawl to the turntable, I figure I'm probably ready for bed. 😎

If that was a question???

SoundHeart is the name of the BS Moment-hub/the base.

Beovirus victim, it's gotten to be too much to list!

Hahaha, absolutely right!

I have a related question:

In a setup with several Beolink Multiroom products up and running together, including a Moment, is there any other way of adding an LP player to the setup other than connecting is to the Moment? Can you use a beolink converter or something similar to make the LP-player be its own unit in the multiroom setup, and not dependent on the Moment? I know the option through the moment is cheaper, but what I'm after is the ability to also remotely control the LP player through the setup, using for instance the BeoMusic app.

What are the pros and cons of the two different ways to do it? And how much would you be able to remotely control on the LP-player, anyway? Play and stop? Or movement of the arm as well? You would need a Beogram, of course. Which Beograms would offer what functionality?

If anybody could shed some light on this, or already have experiences with it, I'm eager to listen! I don't have an LP-player today, but this is something I am planning on doing.

I don't think what you're after is possible with just an nl converter.

The nl converter would make it a source but I can't imagine you'd get control.

You'd have to have an mcl converter to ML to put it on the network.

Then I think you'd have to go from the mcl in to a Beolink active aux port then to the nl converter.

All of that is a maybe.. Great question. I have this same set up and am curious as to a solution on this as well.

Good luck

You'd need an audiomaster with a datalinked connection to the Beogram (a BM 7000 or 4500 with fitting vinyl players as examples).

This will have to be connected to the NL-network using a MCL/ML-Converter and the ML/NL-Converter, which is configured properly.

Alternatively any BS with datalink-aux and ML - to avoid the MCL/ML Converter.

Depending on how much/how little you are going to listen to vinyls and your need to remote control the few functions of the Beogram, it might/or might not be worth the efford.
