CLD 1850 analog sound from PAL LaserVision discs

Archived from groups: alt.video.laserdisc (More info?)

Hi, i live in the Netherlands, have the Pioneer cld1850 LaserDisc
player, is there a "kit" to make my player play the (analog) sound of
my PAL LaserVision discs ? or should i buy a secondhand player that
does the job ? (if cheaper) Please help !

i also still have a tray broken Philips 475, but repairing will
be also pretty expensive i guess....
