Datalink on Beogram Turntable
10 replies
My question is if the Beogram 4004 would interact with an Beomaster 6000 ( not 4CH) or Beomaster 8000?
Thanks for advice.
Kind regards

As far as I know it would work with both. I have had a read of this and cannot see any limitations for either of those setups mentioned:

There are mentioning of some limitations in the datalink implementation in the Beomaster 6000 here

Not convinced it will work though will try it out when I can. The 4004 used a proto datalink and Tim on Beocentral suggests it is not compatible. I will let you know - will need to find where I put the spare DIN pins first!!
The Beoworld piece also suggests that it will not work remotely. It will of course function perfectly well as a record player - I have used mine with all sorts of Beomasters.

The text on Beocentral i pretty clear that it will only work with a Beomaster 2400-2

It will not work.
The "old" and "new" datalink systems are not compatible.

I have made this :)

It is making the BG4002/4004 act like a BG7000 with the modern Datalink beomasters.

Very clever! It amazes me how resourceful members are! I confess that I always clean the record before playing it as usually use a 20CL and any dust simply collects on the needle. And my best deck is completely manual. However clearly there will be demand though maybe a non RIAA version could also be popular.
