INTRODUCTION
The Hafler
IRIS
system is a major step forward in the world
of audio technology. The IRIS CD completes an intensive
engineering effort to create a series of components which
offer superior performance combined with the unprece-
dented convenience of the IRIS remote control.
The basic operation and features of the IRIS CD Player are
described in simplified form in figures 1 and 2. Although
operation of the CD Player is possible by studying these
diagrams only, complete appreciation of its features and
operating modes can only be realized by thoroughly read-
ing this owner’s manual.
We have tried to present this information in an easy to
follow format. We urge you to take the time to read through
this manual as soon as possible.
INSTALLATION
SET-UP OF THE IRIS CD PLAYER
FREE STANDING
Always set the player horizontally on a flat, firm surface.
Allow a minimum space of a least
14"
above the player so
as not to interfere with the cooling of the player.
STACKED
Locate the player preferably at the bottom. Never set the
player directly on top of a high-power amplifier, because
such an amplifier gives off a substantial amount of heat.
RACK MOUNTING
The IRIS CD Player is shipped with removable end caps
on its front panel. Optional rack mounting ears are avail-
able from the factory for mounting the unit in a standard
19” equipment rack.
