Yes. The 4002 should have either a MMC4000 or a MMC20EN cartridge fitted. If it has a MMC20CL fitted, that is a bonus. However it might need replacing.

The UK does have a few resident specialists as well! And in Denmark, Frede Kristensen at Claasic Audio is very highly recommended - as is acknowledged in the latest B&O catalogue. I agree about Martin as well of course!

Much better made than most modern decks. You will need a cartridge if you don't have one , and this can be expensive. Very easy to use and very beautiful - it can be a centre piece on a cabinet. In sound quality terms, you will need to spend a fair bit to match it. Certainly considerably more than you will get from selling the 4002. I use one for

Or get a Mac Mini and use that as a music server. You lose the voice but keep the display and can use the iPod. There are limitations though. The computer cannot access all the other sources - doesn't worry me but it might you.

Beogram 3000 Thorens with 12" ST/P arm. Frede is restoring my 5000 system at present and the turntable has just been finished! I had it working as a 9" model previously and the sound was superb - the bass is much more solid and believable than any other Beogram.

Not here yet. But the turntable is finished.

Of course what you really want is one of these!

Faulty cartridge? I prefer my 4000 as well though!

Not sure is the answer. I don't know if a PC can use iTunes with N.Music. Macs do because of the software written by Anders but I thought PCs had to use either Beoplayer or Windows Media Player. The iPod Touch will work with a PC with iTunes if it has a wireless capability so you could just use the Aux input of the B&O system or an Airport Express

I use AudioHijack. Very good it is too! I don't see this as any different from video or audio taping if used for your own use. Time shifting is not illegal!
