HI,
I am not an installer, but looking for advise on replacing a 15 year old Nutone master station IM-5006.
I would like to keep the exisiting room and outside deck stations if possible.
I did look on the Nutone website, but I believe their newest model with the optional CD player will not fit the exisiting rough-in. My current system has wiring running independant from the master station to the remotes.
I'm looking for any options at this point including getting rid of the whole thing and starting over with something more state of the art and it doesn't have to be Nutone.
Below is the responce I got from the Newtone Technicial:
Depending on how the wires are run on the 5006 system, would dictate which model you could update to. If all of the remotes are independently wired back to the master, you could use the NM200 system, but everything would need to be changed out (master, master rough-in, remotes, remote rough-ins, door station and door station rough-in) except for the wiring. If the wires are run from the master to the first remote and on to the next remote, the only thing we would have to update the 5006, is the IM5000. The IM5000 is a selective call intercom only. No radio, tape deck, or CD. You would also have to patch the wall at the master. The 5006 can normally be repaired, if that would be an option for you. The IM5006 does have an auxiliary input, so external music sources can be played through the system.

NM100 and the NC300 CD add on. The new unit by itself will not fill the hole but there is a frame kit made for exactly this purpose. When using the NM100 and NC300 CD add on you will actually have to make the hole slightly larger. If you replace the room stations (you may have to depending on what you have) with the newer model you will have to use the frame kit they make for them as well. I would suggest this because the newer model stations have a very nice sound when distributing music through them. Well worth the money. The NM100 system is a full-function intercom and music distribution system designed for retrofit applications in residential use. The ‘Master’ unit can replace older intercom systems that use three-wire or four-wire connections to the room stations. The system supports up to 15 remote stations when retrofitting a 4-wire system, and 13 remote stations when retrofitting a 3-wire system. [Link: nutone.com]

Wow. I've never seen this.
Two people in a row, their first posts here. One of them dredges up a thread that is so old the original poster might be making barbecue by now, and only a few hours later, another newbie actually has a direct response!
All this done with none of us jumping in, thinking it's a current discussion, getting irritated with ourselves that we didn't notice it was an antique discussion....

Do any of either Tata Nano or Nutone have turban space?

According to Nutone, the NM100 will NOT work with the speakers for the IM-5006. Unfortunately, I purchased the NM100 and the install kit because of this thread, only to find out that they are not compatible. The IM-5006 is a 6 wire intercom controller, and the NM100 is a 3-4 wire controller. Unless someone out there figured out a way to make it work, I just wasted my time and money.
