Can a BeoGram 5500 turntable connect to non-B&O equipment? Or must one have a datalink connection?
Seems the dumber I hang out here the longer I get.
The Beograms can connect to other systems without datalink. Just use the buttons on the deck.
Most other systems will use RCA connectors so you will probably need to get a 5 pin din to rca converter. Remove the datalink pins (pins 6 and 7)from the lead on the deck (they just screw out) before use.

There is a converter on Ebay at the moment. There are good quality as I have one from this seller myself. Also has the important Earthing wire.

For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination. We learned to talk and we learned to listen..
Thanks, Graham; thanks, Craig.
