Connections and
Installation
The Ayre CX-7 is easy to hook up and use. The
following guidelines will ensure that the installation
goes smoothly.
Location
The infrared beam of the
remote control will also travel
through glass.
A good location for your CD player is at an easily
accessible height in an open-backed cabinet or on a
shelf. The receiver for the infrared remote control is
mounted behind the display lens on the front panel.
A direct line of sight from the listening position
will ensure the maximum range. However, the
infrared beam will also reflect off of most wall
surfaces with a reduced range.
Analog Outputs
When you have a choice, a
balanced connection will offer
slightly higher sound quality
than an unbalanced
connection.
The Ayre CX-7 offers both balanced and unbalanced
outputs. Balanced connections are made via
three-pin XLR connectors, while unbalanced
connections are made via RCA connectors. It is not
normally recommended to use both sets of analog
outputs simultaneously.
