Just done!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like magicians hands. Great job! Tell us a bit more what you did to make the Ipod/phone work. You connected the Ipod/phone to the aux input of the 2500?

In this unit I used the aux input but studing an interface to send commands directly form Beocenter to Ipod using Tape Deck interface.

Would you like to share technical details with me/us? 

I don't know if this is possible, it seems that B&O has a similar interface (similar as functions, not as circuits project)... What does the moderator forum think about? 

 

The existing upgrade consist in one apple cable adapted to connect to the aux input

Restored my Grundig tweeters from which I have made the aluminium base and connected this pair with the bassbox to my Beocenter BC9000. Great sound!

Great Job. They really look fantastic. They really fit very nice on any style.

Forgot about that, yeah you're right! What do you think, shall I make the bassbox ..... as well๐Ÿ™‚

This will eventually be B&O related... got this cheap "SCART splitter" from Biltema. It's nothing but short a SCART cable, terminated in a box with two female SCART connectors in parallel. The build & material quality can be best described as complete sh*t (I resoldered some points right away), but since the cable is very short, it won't be able to ruin the signals. I added two RCA jacks for audio input.

My immediate need was just to get audio into my MX4002 while the video is connected through the S-video input, but instead of a simple adapter, this has a couple of advantages:

  • The soft plastic case is easy to perforate for extra cables / connectors
  • All the SCART signals are connected and available on the PCB, so it is easy to tap into them either inside the box or through the extra connector
  • There's plenty of room in the box for a small microcontroller board and other circuitry ๐Ÿ‘
