This will actually sort the other problem as if you ask <a target="_blank" href="http://soundsheavenly.co.uk/default.htm">Steve at Sounds Heavenly</a> or <a target="_blank" href="http://www.lifestyle-av.co.uk/">Lee at LifestyleAV</a>, they will no doubt be able to get you a RIAA with RCA inputs and DIN outputs. </p> <p>The MMC4 should be fine - it is the standard fitting and a perfectly acceptable cartridge. The Soundsmith SMMC4 would be the recommended replacement should one be needed.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/283464.aspxSun, 04 Jul 2010 11:07:26 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:283464michelesmith550https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/283464.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=29&PostID=283464<p>I just bought a Beogram RX inexpensively, but didn&#39;t realize that the RCA plugs on the unit were the originals and of course don&#39;t connect to my BeoMaster 4500.&nbsp; I found an adapter&nbsp;but the adapter has only 3 pins, not 7 - no sound. I switched the rca inputs to make sure I just didn&#39;t have them confused - no sound.&nbsp; Is there a proper adapter for this?&nbsp; Do I need some kind of amplification boost?&nbsp; (didn&#39;t think I would, but tell me).&nbsp; Of course, I&#39;d rather have a Beogram 4500 or 6500 to match the set, but they are expensive.</p> <p>Also, the turntable came with a MMC4 cartridge, which seems to fit - is it the right one?</p> <p>Thanks,&nbsp; Michele</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
