I have a CD7000 by itself and wanted to control the play, pause, fast forward etc functions. Is there a hack without buying the receiver and stack hifi and the now impossible to find beolink 7000 remote? Is there a IR unit that could learn the codes and be connected to the back of the CD7000 and receive commands from a more recent remote?The CD5500/7000 from seeing a tear-down are one of the best built CD players in the world ever using quality components. I really don’t want to replace it for a lesser machine with all the functionality.

Remote control of a CD7000

Maybe connect the CD7000 to a stand-alone MCL2AV via one of its front panel CD sockets, then you'll be able to control with a Beo4 via an MCL transceiver. No need to worry about MCL cable connection, etc, but the MCL2AV would have to be powered (15v).
Then you can either feed the MCL2AV's powerlink output (volume controlled) into the rest of your system, or simply take a parallel line output from the CD players output.
You could then play with the MCL2AV's option settings to get the control that you require using a single remote.
