Beosystem 5000 working with Ben CD 5500

[Peter McLane]

I have a Beosystem 5000 with turntable, cassette player and remote master panel.  I am considering purchasing a CD 5500 to add to the system.  I know the CD 50 is compatible, but does the Cd 5500 work with Beosystem 5000 and will the remote panel operate it ?

The internal protocols for both the BM5000 and CD5500 are based on Datalink ’80, so it should work fine. That being said, the CD control on the MCP5000 remote is a wee-bit unrefined for accomplishing things like individual track indexing, if memory serves. But it does work.
