Ayre Acoustics C-5xe Stereo System User Manual


 
Connections and
Installation
The Ayre C-5xe universal stereo (U2) player 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 U2 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 C-5xe 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.
