I'm putting together a system for my daughter's apartment. I have a really nice Bang & Olafson Beomaster 1900 receiver (big thanks to Larry Bauer and Bill Elliot). She will use her iphone and/or ipod as a source. The B&O has only phono and tape inputs. Phono obviously not appropriate so that leaves me with the 5-pin tape in/out connector. So, I need a 5-pin male DIN to 3.5mm male stereo connector. I need to make certain that the connector connects the 3.5mm output of the iphone to the tape input of the B&O. Any suggestions? An iphone stand would be nice.

Use your tape inputs (high level) with something as simple as a headphone to rca adapter. If that works, you can look at something like a DAC for her. Baby steps.
 
You can get minijack-to 5 pin din connectors on Amazon or eBay (I'm assuming). At very least 5pin to RCA then RCA to minijack. Not pretty but sound quality won't be noticeable with iPhone. In fact, it will sound great. I had my B&O hooked to Airport express and loved it. Airport express is minijack out like the phone. Used standard mini to RCA then had RCA to 5 pin Din as mentioned. Easy.
 
I should have mentioned the RCA to 5 pin Din (that's B&O inputs) need to be female RCA. By far the most common mum jack to RCA (for phone to stereo) is male RCA.
