Krell Industries CD-1 CD Player User Manual


 
E. BASIC INSTALLATION AND
AND CONNECTIONS
1. Place the unit on a clean level surface away from
excessive heat, moist.ure or light. Ideally, the CD-1
should be placed on the top of an audio component stacl~,
on top of a cabinet, or any rigid open-air platform.
2. Connect the AC power cord to the back of the unit.
Once the power cord is secured plug the cord into an AC
outlet.
When the CD-1 is connected to the AC outlet you will
hear a soft clicking sound. The display on the front panel
may illuminate during initial power up; if not, depress the
power button and the display will come on.
NOTE: While the CD-1 has superb regulation and does
not require a dedicated AC circuit, we strongly advise
against any connections through extension cords or mul-
tiple AC adaptors. High quality 15 ampline conditioners
or grounded AC strips are acceptable. Do not remove or
bypass the groundpln on the end of the AC cord. This
may cause RFI (radio frequency interference) to be in-
duced into your playback system.
CAUTION: When making connections to this component
or any other make sure th~ power amplifier is OFF and
the preamplifier is in the MUTE or STANDBY mode.
3. The CD-1 is equipped with two analog output configu-
ra.tions: Single-ended-via RCA connectors and Balanced
via XLR connectors.
Connect the appropriate OUTPUT of the CD-1 to the line
level INPUT of your preamplifier.
NOTE: Th.e single:ended and balanced outputs can be
used simultaneously to feed two different systems.
4. If you are using the CD-1 as a dedicated transport
connect the Digital Output from the CD-1 to a I£rell
Digital Processor or other compatible digital,to-analog
audio processor. The CD-1 is compatible with industry
standard fibre optic, coaxial c@le or optional AT&T .fibre
optic interface. The location ot the unit should be within
2 meters of the digital signal processor. If a longer dis-
tance is required we recommend using an AT&T fibre
optic data rink, as it is more suited to long runs.
