warm up/break-in period Your new Classé CD player will deliver outstanding performance immediately. However, you should expect to hear it improve somewhat as it reaches its normal operating temperatures and its various components “break-in.” It has been our experience that the greatest changes occur within the first 300 hours, as the CD player reaches thermal equilibrium and the capacitors fully form. After this initial break-in period, the performance of your new product should remain quit

extraordinary longevity Another benefit of having worked with highly refined circuit designs so extensively over many years is that we have vast experience in what works well over the long term. By using only the highest quality parts to begin with, and then using them in an informed way as a result of both accelerated aging experiments and actual long- term experience, we are able to design and manufacture products which we are confident will stand the test of time. We are confident that your

Front Panel 1 Standby button & LED indicator The front panel Standby button will toggle the player between its fully operational status and a standby mode that leaves the player off, yet ready to respond to system commands via any of the supported control options (e.g. IR input, DC trigger, CAN Bus, or RS-232). The current state of the player is indicated by the LED on the Standby button on the front panel. When the unit is powered and switched on, this LED indicates the following: • on =

Rear Panel 1 Coaxial digital output This output provides a S/PDIF digital audio signal for use with a processor or external digital-to-analog (D/A) converter. Connect this output to a corresponding coaxial digital input on your preamplifier/processor. Doing so allows you to feed the signal in its digital form directly to your A/V preamplifier for further digital processing. 2 Balanced (XLR) analog outputs These XLR outputs provide a high quality, balanced stereo analog signal to your processo

For this reason, we strongly recommend using the balanced analog interconnections between your Classé components wherever possible. The pin assignments of these XLR output connectors are: Pin 1: Signal ground Pin 2: Signal + (non-inverting) Pin 3: Signal – (inverting) Connector ground lug: chassis ground These pin assignments are consistent with the standard adopted by the Audio Engineering Society (AES14-1992). If you are using your Classé CD player with a Classé preamplifier, you’re all

4 IR Input and Output 1 th Your Classé player includes two /8 -inch mono mini-jacks in order to support the infrared (IR) remote controls that are ubiquitous today. Infrared commands exist (for example) for toggling the player between operate and standby, in addition to discrete command codes for either operate or standby. These codes may be used in “macros” for sophisticated remote control systems, facilitating the control of the player in the larger context of a complete system. The lis
