Switching the Nakamichi CD player on would switch the BeoLab 5s over to the digital input, but you would still control the volume through the BeoSound 9000 (I *think*).<div><br class="khtml-block-placeholder" /></div><div>Roger would be the person to confirm this.</div><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8287.aspxMon, 30 Apr 2007 16:03:30 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:8287Peter0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8287.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=8287<p>It is a little problematic as they would work normally in different ways. The BL5 is designed so it can take line level from other makes and then, using a Beo4, control the volume via the BL5. The BS9000 however would control the volume itself and the BL5 simply acts as a power amplifier. I am sure there is a way and it will probably involve using the remote of the Nakamichi to control the volume when it is attached. However one would normally have different option settings when using the speakers with a non B&amp;O system and this will be your problem.<br />&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8277.aspxMon, 30 Apr 2007 15:34:51 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:8277koning0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8277.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=8277nobody??<img src="http://forum.beoworld.org/emoticons/emotion-8.gif" alt="Indifferent" /><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8133.aspxMon, 30 Apr 2007 02:18:54 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:8133koning0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8133.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=8133<p>I Want to connect a very good pre-amp nakamichi ca-5e and a nakamichi cd player to the beolab 5 but...I allso&nbsp;&nbsp;want to use the&nbsp;beosound9000</p><p>Is this possible??</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8132.aspxMon, 30 Apr 2007 02:12:43 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:8132meandmyshadow0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8132.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=8132What is the purpose of using a non B&amp;O CD player in addition to a BS9000?<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8092.aspxSun, 29 Apr 2007 17:34:51 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:8092koning0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/8092.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=13&PostID=8092&nbsp;If&nbsp;I&nbsp;connect a pre-amp and a non B&amp;O cd player to the beolab 5 (line input) is it then also possible to use the beosound9000??<div style="clear:both;"></div>
