Krell Industries MD10 Turntable User Manual


 
E. BASIC INSTALLATION AND
CONNECTIONS
1. Place the unit on a clean, level surface away from
excessive heat, moist.ure or light. Ideally, the MD-10
should be placed on tlae top of an audio component cat)i-
net or other "open air" rigid platform.
2. The MD-10 may. be. placed in a cabinet. It will require.
17.0 inches of vertical clearance between the bottom anti
top shelves for proper operation of the cover.
3. If. space is limited, the MD-10 can be operated without
its clust cover. Six inches vertical clearance is adequate to
allow convenient access to the disc transport area.
4. The location of the unit should be within 2 meters of
the digital signal proeess0r~ If longer distanc.e is re_quired,
we recommend using an AT&T fi.~re optic clata linl~ o.r an
AES/EBU balanced ~lata.link, as tlaey are more suitecl to
long distance runs. --~
5. Once you have found a location for the unit, adjust the
transport’s a_djustable suspension towers to make the
MD--10s surffice level. A bubble level is conveniently
mounted in the black acrylic, tOl~ plate, allowing for easy
level adjus.t.ment, Adjust eacla ot the four suspension
towers until the bublSle in the level is centered. Counter
clockwise rotation raises the towers and clockwise rota-
tion lowers the towers.
NOTE: The adjusta.ble suspension towers are only for
fine a.djustment anti can not compensate for gross surface
irregularities.
6. Connect the AC power cord to the back of the unit.
Once the power cord is secured, plug the cord into an AC
outlet.
7. Press the POWER button on the front panel. The dis-
play will illuminate and the transport will now be active.
NOTE: While the MD-10 has superb regulation and does
not require a dedicated AC circuit, we strongly advise
against any. connections through extension cords or mul-
tiple AC a~laptors. High quality 15 amp grounded AC
strips are acceptable.
