Hello,

The Aux In on my (old but v. good) hifi system is a female DIN socket. Could you please advise how I would connect the B2 to it.

Thanks
Jonathan

Does your DIN socket have 5 pins?  If so, then maybe something like this will work:
I just searched for "3.5 mm to DIN cable."  You can too.

Hi Jonathan,

is the aux the only free input on your Hifi ?

I have learned that not all DIN connectors are wired the same.  Perhaps your owner manual will tell how the DIN socket is wired.

Hi John, Yes it is the only one. The system is a B&O.

Thanks Daniel, according to B&O forums you can connect either a 5 din or 7 din into the B&O. The only difference is that the 7 DiN would be recommended if the connection was between two B&O units. I was surprised (in a good way) that the recommendation was as simple as the 3.5mm Jack. Thank you
