From what I gather most B&O receivers only have DIN inputs?
An odd model or two will have RCA connections (in addition to DINs) for some inputs / outputs, but don't let that limit your choices. A cheap adapter is all that is needed to connect the DINs with anything else.
Also, anyone got the Beomaster 2000 from the seventies? Looks beautiful with teak and black panels!
Yes! It's an excellent receiver as well. I wouldn't be unhappy at all to have one of those as my only system.
Sweet! So a plausible chain would be Ipad(running spotify)->AppleTV->DAC->RCA2DIN-adapter->receiver? And one would connect it to the tape-input I presume? Do you recommend any adapters?
Apparently the 2000 is rosewood. Will definitely consider the 2000 yeah๐
Beogram 4001; see Peters post above.Shouldn't it be called 4003? ๐
That would've made sense too, yes ๐ but I suppose the -01 was adapted from the matching Beomaster.

What I have is what Iยดm looking for least.
What I don't have is what Iยดm looking for most.
Everything else is just a matter of taste.

I can also recomend BM2000, it sounds superb!
I have the white one with alu-front, for me it is one of 3 best looking Beomasters.
You can find adapter on ebay, there are many of suppliers, e.g:
That is what you need. It is not the cheapest one, try to find it cheaper...
Yeah both the 70s and the 80s version of the 2000 looks like an amazing piece of vintage gear. Which version do you have?
Not exactly the cable I though of, but yeah I found plenty of RCA2Din plugs on ebay.
I have a 70's version of BM2000, this one next to the BM1001 on the pic. My BM2000 was refurbished and refit with new caps and it sounds really, really good. I am using it with (also) white Beovox P50 and I think it is a very nice and good sounding B&O vintage set. Only the tube amplifier Beolab 608 is the one I like more as the BM2000.
Sorry if this is not tha cabel you are looking for but yes, you can find any cable you need on Ebay (or other platforms).

Really nice looking gear there O master๐ Def on the saved searches list. Cant wait until I find myself a vintage B&O set :)
Spring for a full Beolab 8000 system. No CD player needed:
- get wifi in your home
- connect an Apple Airport Express to the AUX input
- use an iPad mini to control everything
Done, Son!
