There was an option to have a RIAA fitted to the 6500/7000 but the kits I saw slotted in the back rather than had an extra flying lead and replaced the original phono socket.<br /><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33247.aspxSat, 21 Jul 2007 19:13:24 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:33247B&amp;Ola0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33247.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=33247I have exactly the same on my BM6500 and I&#39;ve been told that it is some kind of extra Phono input for non beograms, but I&#39;m not realy sure about it.<div><br class="khtml-block-placeholder" /></div><div>/Ola</div><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33240.aspxSat, 21 Jul 2007 17:58:01 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:33240Peter0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33240.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=33240Dealer fit! <img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/58.gif" alt="Laughing" /><br /><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33235.aspxSat, 21 Jul 2007 17:23:09 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:33235h1npw0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33235.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=33235<p>Thanks Peter - Would it have been a dealer or a factory fit option ?</p><p>I know that sound a bit car-ish, but you know what I mean !&nbsp;</p><p>Cheers</p><p>Nigel&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33234.aspxSat, 21 Jul 2007 17:18:39 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:33234Peter0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/33234.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=33234It is probably a socket for an external sensor.

It looks like a 7 pin input socket. I don&#39;t know if it&#39;s a Heath Robinson job or it was actually made like that. I can&#39;t see any reference to it in the set up guide.
