    Beer [B] A big ask? Record vinyl from a Beosystem 6000 to a new Imac...

    I have had a vintage chic Beosystem 6000 (type 2252) with Beovox S80.2 speakers for about 5 years - lovely mellow sound, and I would like to record some of my old favourite vinyl to my brand new Apple Imac 2.66GHz core2 duo with OS X 10.5.4 software...

    Do I have to connect the whole system or just the Beogram 6000 (it has a DIN plug) ? 

    Is it too much to ask of these two generations of technology to exchange of sounds - ie record vinyl to digital files and maybe play the mac through the B&O? Can the old dog cope with a new bone? 

    Another Q, is how can I improve the FM reception, I have the standard co-axial plastic coated wire aerial, any suggested improvements? 

    Any other suggestions gratefully received.

    Best wishes y'all from Edinburgh.

    Will work fine but you need to connect the iMac to the Tape 2 Rec of the Beomaster. You will need some software - I use Toast 9.

    Best way to improve FM reception is to use an external aerial. A dedicated FM aerial is best but an output from a TV aerial will work better than the internal aerial in all probability.
