      The more you guys write about these converters the more fascinating it gets. One thing that struck me (but maybe dillutes the topic and needs to go in separate thread): if the 1615 can translate ML audio into more digestible DL/AAL formats, couldn’t we attach an AD converter with AUX in to it and use it as a poor man’s “stream any ML source to modern speakers” device?

      Will probably get a 1611 next week and then I’m gonna start my BeoGram (and now BeoCord, too – my old tape deck mysteriously still works well 🙂 ML adventure

        It hasnt been tested in this thread, but Guy concluded based on the servicemanual that it is only One way ML->AAL https://forum.beoworld.org/forums/topic/beolab-3500-and-1611-converter-settings/page/9/#post-14356 So I guess you better look out for the 1611

        Interesting – so if I wanted to connect a BeoGram record player to my ML network (I don’t have any product that can control the BeoGram anymore, would I be able to remote control it via the 1611/1615? Or would a 1611/14 converter be insufficient as it still needs a beomaster talking properly to the turntable?

          Quick question for the “1611 creative use SWAT team” 🙂

          I can get my hand on a 1615. Now this box obviously only has the AUX port. But other than that: would this box allow my similar stunts to what you guys are pulling with the 1611?

          cheers

            Hi,

            ich hab den bestimmt 20 Jahre in der Combo mit meinen BL8000 gehabt. Ohne klingen die BL8000 schon etwas flach. Ich hab den in der Combo gern genutzt. Jetzt steht er unter meinem Schreibtisch und hilft meinen BL4000, die am Mac angeschlossen sind, zu eine ordentlichen Fundament. Ich find den gut.

            Gebrauchte Preise wirst Du in den einschlägigen Portalen leicht finden.

            GruĂź

              ….just do a search for it. And…..if you want to connect more than one device, you’d need some kind of switch too.

              As for the 2nd question – I remember back in the days, that I had a stock external USB drive connected….so yes that should work! I would however, not recommend it – it will be much easier to use a PC/Mac for this, because you will have to tag the files properly in order to have these searchable and showing coverpics etc on the BS5. MM

              Thanks for both hints. Found my old USB CD drive and hooked to the Mac. Still works 🙂 So that should be easier. Agreed.

                The setup would look something like this: BM5 -ML- 1611 -7 pin Datalink- MCL2AV – Beogram/Beocord

                Yeah, I’ve been following this thread with a mixture of amusement, fascination and sheer respect for the amount of knowledge present in this community. I have started to put out searches in ebay classifieds to see whether I can source the components at reasonable prices to also build such a setup.
