He has it connected to AUX now, but I suddenly thought it moght be possible to connect the Bg8000 directly, but remembered something about the Bg8000 not having the internal RIAA that&#39;s in the Beogram 6500.</p> <p>Thanks.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/358143.aspxThu, 09 Feb 2012 13:43:59 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:358143Peter0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/358143.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=29&PostID=358143<p>It will work with a Beomaster 5500 but not easily with the 6500 - the Beogram 8000 has no RIAA and neither does the BM6500. In addition, the wrong pins used in the DIN plug for remote control - connect 6&amp;7 together for this. You will need an external RIAA.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/358134.aspxThu, 09 Feb 2012 13:13:15 GMT41a2a90c-3a1e-4bd3-b144-3883695a7f38:358134soundproof0https://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/thread/358134.aspxhttps://archivedforum.beoworld.org:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=29&PostID=358134<p>A friend has a Bg8000 and wonders if his Beomaster 6500 can control it through the Phono-DIN.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>He doesn&#39;t want to connect the unit before I&#39;ve checked here for him (having already fritzed a Sugden amp, he&#39;s become wary).</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyone know?
