Hi, can anyone please tell me whether I can hook up my iPod nano with a
Bang & Olufsen Beosystem 2500? Can I use a 5 pin DIN to 2 RCA cable?

If your Beogadget has ~conventional line inputs,
then it will likely work.

The headphone output on any MP3 player will be OK to feed the normal
amplifier line inputs. You'll need a stereo 3.5mm plug to two RCA
(phono) plugs. It may be that your B&O uses a 5-pin din plug as the
aux/tuner line input, in which case you may have to have a lead made up.

If you still have the amp data sheet, check that the line input
sensitivity is somewhere in the 100mV to 1V range, and you'll be OK.

DON'T FEED THE MP3 PLAYER INTO THE PHONO MAGNETIC CARTRIDGE INPUT! That
would overload the amp and would also have inappropriate frequency
shaping applied.
