Hi @pilatomic,

I’ve been enjoying my Beotooth for a little while now and have some minor feedback.

• I can’t “steal” the audio connection using another device while the first device is still connected.  I have to disconnect the first device before the second device will connect.  Would be a nice feature to have.
• If I power off the Bluetooth while my PC is connected, then enable BT again, it will connect to the Beotooth but not show an audio device.  I have to press the pair button on the Beotooth and reconnect to get an audio device to show in Windows 11.  Might be a Win11 problem, but it’s pretty consistent.
• The volume range seems to be non-exponential.  The bottom half of the range doesn’t seem to change the volume much and the audio cuts out completely at about 1/10 and below.  This is with an iPhone, by the way.

Not a big problem, but thought I’d just mention it.

Just received a Beotooth 5500 today.  I was able to modify the DIN7 by cutting the Datalink wire and then heating the two extra pins with a soldering iron and pulling them out once the plastic slightly melted.

Plugged into my Beomaster 2400 with S75 speakers (both just restored with new caps and other failed parts).  Sounds great!

So glad to be able to play something other than the radio 🙂

The sound quality seems crisp and clear.

Thanks @pilatomic!

Going to restore the turntable next…

Hi pilatomic,

I have a Beomaster 2400.  Would the Beotooth work with that?  If so, I’d be interested in purchasing the kit.

Sorry, I can’t find where to send a PM.
