Hi Steve,

Thanks for your swift response and support.

Just tested with my iPhone, exactly the same result as before🙁.

Any thoughts 😮?

Best regards

Hi Francis,

Thanks for your reply.  Could this be an issue with the 3.5mm to 5 pin DIN cables and adapters that you are using please?

Kind regards, Steve.

Hi Steve,

I tried 3.5 mm to cinch adapter —> cinch to 5 pin DIN adapter —> splitter. Unfortunately again exactly the same result: As soon as I connect the 3.5 mm plug to a device (iPhone or TechniSat) the sound from the Beogram is disturbed and almost gone.

Best regards

Hi Francis,

This sounds like an impedance mis-match between the Beogram output and the headphone output of the other device.  Usually, when using a device with line level RCA outputs alongside a Beogram with a pre-amp, there should be no issues.

In this case, the best option is to change the Aux Splitter to a switch box to isolate the different sources so that you can manually switch between them as required:-

Hi Steve

Your website mentions „output connection 5pin Din Aux“

I assume I will then loose the opportunity to control the turntable via my Beo4?

Anyway, the whole issue is not a really great thing. I use the Beogram quite infrequently and the plugs are easy accessible. I will probably keep switching the plugs when necessary😕. I can use the splitter to reduce the risk of damaging the Overtures‘ AUX socket.

Best regards

Francis

Hi Francis,

Yes, unfortunately you would lose remote control of the Beogram if you use the switch box..... unless you keep the Beogram connected via the splitter and connect the switch box to the other socket of the splitter (instead of directly to the Ouverture.

This way, the Beogram has a direct connect with remote control and you can also add more devices to the Aux socket via the switch box as required.

Kind regards, Steve.

 

PS. Thanks Ralf! 🙂
