I suggest that you take the stand into Mackays in Cambridge and ask them. They can provide you with everything you require.

I am afraid that I have no experience with Beolink Wireless. But..............if it is going to work at all, you can guarantee that you will need a MK2 Powerlink Cable ! Just so there is no confusion, generally speaking, the two options are:- 1 Masterlink plus IR Eye or 2 A MK2 Powerlink cable

I believe there are 3 that you have missed!! Remove 1 in the bottom of the centre hole where the speaker connections are situated. Remove 1 each in the bottom of the holes that has or had the plastic band tensioning blocks in. Crap description but it's the best I can do!!

[quote user="KingOfSnake"] Switch live also needs to be routed to either pin 1 or 4 - do they come on if you don't do this? [/quote] You're just confusing the issue!! I don't know of any standard situation where the following is not true. All you need is a MK2 Powerlink cable I have been answering questions on BeoWorld for years

RIAA decks have datalink on pin 7 of the DIN plug and non RIAA on pin 6!

PLease Note: It must be a MK2 Power Link cable. Nothing else will work.

I believe that the fitting RIAA board involved a small amount of soldering and I dare say some links have been cut. If you prefer, you could disable the RIAA in the deck. I've never actually done this but I have had to reverse the procedure on a BG4500 deck that had been disabled. Of course, you also probably have to reverse the datalink connection

Whatever the products section may say, I can assure you that the standard BM6500 does not have RIAA pre-amp built in. The products section refers to the RIAA accessory that was available at the time but which has not been available for some years.

I have been reading this thread with interest as I have a BC1 on my workroom wall which has not been cured of the same affliction. The service menu reports that there is a radio and the counter suggests that it has been used for 8 days by the previous owner. Despite all this, I cannot get so much as a hiss out of the thing and nor will it respond to

Well said 10%. At last a sensible post.
