High quality sound•Toroidal transformer

This unit features a toroidal transformer that produces less vibration and magnetic leakage flux compared to conventional power transformers. The materials and manufacturing process of the ring-shaped core are strictly controlled to reduce vibration, while the short-ring attached to the perimeter of the transformer reduce magnetic leakage flux.

•Large-capacitance block capacitorA large capacitance 3300 μF capacitor carefully selected for its acoustic characteristics is incorporated into the power supply circuit.

•Audiophile-grade film capacitors and electrolytic capacitorsThe unit’s features the same audiophile-grade film capacitors and electrolytic capacitors specifically used in top-range models.

•Low-noise low-distortion filter circuit and highspeed HDAM®SA2-type output amplifier with the differential input type HDAM®

•Double-layered chassis

•Headphone circuit component upgradeThe high-grade headphone circuit incorporates HDAM®SA2 amplifier to enable headphone listening of high quality sound reproduction, late at night or in other such situations.

High performance•Equipped with a USB-DAC function to support DSD file playback

This unit is equipped with a USB-DAC function that supports DSD signals and 192 kHz/24 bit PCM signals. You can enjoy high-quality audio playback from the D/A converter built in to this unit by inputting PCM signal or DSD signal music files into this unit from a computer via USB connection. •Install the dedicated driver software onto the computer before use

(“Installing the driver software” (vpage 45).•You can use whichever commercially available or downloadable player

software you like to playback files on your computer.

Playback order of MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV files

When there are multiple folders containing MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV files, the playback order of folders is automatically set when this unit reads the media. The files in each folder are played back in the order in which the files were recorded on the media, from the oldest date and time.

CD-R/CD-RWFor playback of files on CD-R or CD-RW , files in all folders on the first layer are played first, next on the second layer, then next on the third layer, and so on in this order.

USB memory deviceFor playback of files recorded on USB, files in the first folder on the first layer are played first, next folders on the second layer in the folder, then next on the third layer, and so on in this order. Then accordingly files on another first layer are played.

%•The playback order displayed on a PC may differ from the actual playback order.•The playback order with a CD-R/CD-RW may differ, depending on the writing

software.

NOTE

•The playback order may differ from the order in which the folders or files were recorded if you delete or add a folder or file on USB. This occurs because of data recording specifications and is not a malfunction.

About Discs and FilesFiles, such as MP3/WMA/AAC/WAV etc., recorded on CD-R/-RW and USB memory device are divided into large segments (folders) and small segments (files). Files are stored in folders, and folders can be placed for storage in a hierarchy. The unit can recognize up to 8 levels of folders.

%•When writing MP3/WMA etc. files on a CD-R/-RW disc, set the writing software’s

format to “ISO9660”. The files may not play properly if they are recorded in other formats. For details, refer to the instructions of your writing software.

Cautions on using mediaInserting a disc

•Set the disc in the tray label side up.•Make sure the disc tray is fully open when inserting the disc.•Place the discs flatly, 5 inch/12 cm discs in the outer tray guide (Figure

1), 3 inch/8 cm discs in the inner tray guide (Figure 2).

Figure 1 Figure 2

Outer tray guide

5 inch/12 cm disc

Inner tray guide

3 inch/8 cm disc

•Place 3 inch/8 cm discs in the inner tray guide without using an adapter.

%•“0 0:00” is displayed if a disc that cannot be played is loaded.•“No Disc” is displayed if the disc is loaded upside-down or if no disc is loaded.

NOTE

•Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage the unit or scratch the discs.

•Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired with adhesive, etc.

•Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it.

•Do not use discs in special shapes, as they may damage the player.

•Do not push the disc tray in by hand when the power is off.•Doing so could damage the set.•If the unit is left in a room full of smoke from cigarettes, etc., for long periods of

time, the surface of the optical pickup may get dirty, preventing it from receiving signals properly.

72



Appendix

How to handle media •Do not get fingerprints, oil or dirt on discs.•Take special care not to scratch discs when removing them from their

cases.•Do not bend or heat discs.•Do not enlarge the hole in the center.•Do not write on the labeled (printed) surface with ball-point pens, pencils,

etc., or stick new labels on discs.•Condensation may form on discs if they are moved suddenly from a cold

place (outdoors for example) to a warm place, but do not try to dry discs with a hairdryer, etc.

•Do not eject a USB memory device or turn off the unit while a USB memory device is being played. This may result in malfunction or loss of the USB memory device’s data.

•Do not attempt to open or modify a USB memory device. •USB memory device and files can be damaged by static electricity.

Do not touch the metal contacts of an USB memory device with your fingers.

•Do not use warped USB memory device.•After use, be sure to remove any disc or USB memory device, and store

it in its proper case, to avoid dust, scratches and deformation.•Do not store discs in the following places:

1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time2. Dusty or humid places3. Places exposed to heat from heaters, etc.

Cleaning discs•If there are fingerprints or dirt on a disc, wipe them off before using the

disc.•Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to clean

discs.

Gently wipe the disc from the inside towards the outside. Do not wipe with a circular motion.

NOTE

•Do not use record spray, antistatic agents, benzene, thinner or other solvents.

Appendix

Explanation of termsB

Bit rateThis is the amount of audio data recorded on a disc that is read in one second.

DDynamic rangeThe difference between the maximum, undistorted sound level and the minimum sound level that is discernible above the noise emitted by the device.

FFinalizingThis process enables CDs recorded with a CD recorder or drive to be played by other players.

LLinear PCMThis is an uncompressed PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) signal. This is the same system used for CD audio but uses 192 kHz, 96 kHz, and 48 kHz sampling frequencies on Blu-ray Disc or DVD and provides higher resolution than CD.

MMP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)This is an internationally standardized audio data compression scheme, based on the “MPEG-1” video compression standard. It compresses the data volume to about one eleventh its original size while maintaining sound quality roughly equivalent to a music CD.

SSampling frequencySampling involves taking a reading of a sound wave (analog signal) at regular intervals and expressing the height of the wave at each reading in digitized format (producing a digital signal).The number of readings taken in one second is called the “sampling frequency”. The larger the value, the closer the reproduced sound is to the original.

WWMA (Windows Media Audio)This is the audio compression technology developed by Microsoft Corporation.To encode WMA files, only use applications authorized by Microsoft Corporation. If you use an unauthorized application, the file may not work properly.
