I met the OP yesterday when he bought an MS6000 from me so I know he has a CD3500, not a record deck. He is from your part of the world Peter (Durham) so can you point him to a local supplier of a female din/rca adapter. Hello Peter C and welcome to the forum. Hope you had a better trip back!!

My personal thoughts on this matter are,thus. If you want to go, go now. Don't keep bleating about it. I don't see the point!

Direct with MCL cable would be my choice. Or Masterlink converter/Masterlink. Don't know if it would work with MCL2AV

BL3500's shipped in the last year or two have powerlink and masterlink. This for compatibility with Beolink Wireless. Prior to this they had MCL and Masterlink. What do you plan to connect it to?

Lee Despite other posts to the contrary, you are not the almighty!! These items are complex pieces of mechanical/optical/electronic equipment. Somewhere in the advertising they do state how many component parts the 9000 contains. With the best will in the world, things do fail. Everybody should live with that 'cos to deny it is folly!

rfc1: All looks clean, the cd's simply wont spin round! The thing only arrived from lifestyle av yesterday, so shouldnt be problematic surely? sandy Aah! You didn't say that before. Don't meddle with it. Phone Lee at LifeStyle-AV. That is what the warranty is for.

Things that can cause this symptom include:- Dusty IR safety beam - Clean the clear plastic pyramids either end of the CD bed. These are designed

Worth keeping? Well that depends on whether you plan to use it or not. Most B&O systems sound reasonable even when compared to modern stuff but the lack of a CD player means that you will have to add a suitable stand alone device to get full use out of it nowadays. It's not worth much on the open market and the cost of a stylus is likely to

Sadly, although you have a later linear laser mech (CDM Pro) even the replacement for that has been superceded by Philips who are the manufacturers of the mechanism. B&O have developed an upgrade kit which allows the later CDM Pro II mechanism to be fitted. Unfortunately it is not a straight swap of the mechanism but involves fitting a modified
