ABOUT THE FILTER
Super Audio CDs have a wide playback frequency band
of 100 kHz that is beyond the audible range: this means
that their signals contain ultra-high-range components
that conventional CDs do not have. A conventional
amplifier is often not built to reproduce signals
containing these components, and when Super Audio
CD signals are output in their original state, noise may
be generated, the amplifier's protection circuits may be
activated and/or the speakers may be damaged.
To prevent this sort of trouble from occurring, the unit
incorporates a filter for attenuating the ultra-high-range
components, and the filter can be set STANDARD ALL,
CUSTOM ST, or CUSTOM ALL using a switch on the
rear panel. (This switch is set to STANDARD ALL
when the unit is shipped from the manufacturing plant.)
When the unit is to be connected with a next-
generation amplifier that supports Super Audio CDs and
set the switch to CUSTOM ST OR CUSTOM ALL for
use. This will ensure play with a wider frequency range.
Set the switch for changing the required output signal.
Position 1: Output signal on all speakers is set
to STANDARD.
Position 2: Output signal on front speakers are set to
CUSTOM; output signal on all other
speakers is set to STANDARD
Position 3: Output signal on all speakers are set to
CUSTOM.
Warning:
* Use the switch at the STANDARD ALL position if the
unit is to be used with a regular amplifier. Otherwise,
the amplifier and/or speakers may be damaged.
* Even when the unit has been connected with an
amplifier that supports Super Audio CDs, change the
switch to the STANDARD ALL position when recording
Super Audio CD sound on a tape deck, for instance.
* Do not change the switch setting while playback is in
progress. Doing so could generate electronic noise that
could damage your speakers, etc.
Playing CD-RW discs
This unit can play back the CD-RW (ReWritable) discs
as well as ordinary music CD and CD-R (Recordable)
discs.
● The CD-R and CD-RW discs should contain
properly-recorded TOC information so that they
can be played back. With the CD recorder system,
writing the TOC information in a disc is referred to
as finalizing the disc. A disc cannot be recognized as
a CD disc and played back unless it has been
finalized properly. For details, please read the
instruction manual provided with a CD recorder.
● TOC stands for Table Of Contents and contains
information such as the total number of tracks and
total playing time of the disc.
● This unit can play only the discs recorded in the
CD-DA format designed for music reproduction. Do
not attempt to play a disc containing other data,
such as a CD-ROM for PCs, on this unit.
● As the playback of a CD-RW disc necessitates
partial change of the player setup, it may take longer
time for reading the TOC information than when a
music CD or CD-R disc is played.
● The format for CD-R and CD-RW discs is stipulated
in the Orange Book, Parts II and III.
Although the two formats are designed to be
compatible, some portions may not capable of being
played back, depending on the recording unit, the
media, and the playback unit.
