5.1  Application possibilities for the DRIVE I 

– MK 2 

 
The  DRIVE  I 

–  MK  2  is  a  professional  top-loader  CD  drive  with  extremely  developed  mechanical  and 

electronic  details.  In  order  to  help  fully  exploit  the  DRIVE  I 

–  MK  2,  the  device  has  a  number  of  digital 

outputs. The device requires a  Digital/Analog converter which converts the digital signals of the CD into 
analog signals.  
The DRIVE I 

– MK 2 plays all types of CDs (redbook standard) incl. CD-R and CD-RW. 

 
 

5.2  Connecting a D/A - Converter 

 
The DRIVE I 

– MK 2 possesses a balanced XLR output 

OUT 1

, an unbalanced RCA output 

OUT 2

 and 

an  unbalanced  BNC  output 

OUT  3

.For  the  connection  of  a  D/A  converter  (e.g.  TUBE  DAC  II  from 

ACCUSTIC  ARTS

®

),  use  a  digital  output  of  the  DRIVE  I 

– MK 2 and connect this to the corresponding 

digital  input  of  the  D/A  converter.  You  can  use  these  digital  outputs  also  to connect  a  recording  device, 
e.g. a mini disc or CD recorder. 
If  possible,  use  the  balanced  output.  The  balanced  technology  can  increase  the  sound  performance  of 
your system. 
 
 

5.3  Connection to mains power  

 
Only connect the unit to the mains power when all the other cable connections have already been carried 
out. 
 
Firstly, plug in the mains cable in the inlet connector socket of the unit and only then the earthing pin-plug 
in the mains socket.  
 
By actuating the mains power switch 

2

, you can switch the unit on or off.  

 
 

5.4  Replacing damaged mains fuses  

 
If a fuse is damaged only replace the fuse with original types having the same ampere value, the same 
voltage  endurance  and  the  same  time-lag.  Never  use  fuses  with  other  ampere  classes  or  time-lag 
classes. 
 
 

 
WARNING! 

 
Pull out the mains plug! 
 

Always disconnect the unit from the mains power before replacing a fuse.  

 

 
 
To  change  the  fuse

 

1

 

please  use  a  screwdriver  suitable  for  the  slot  in  the  fuse  holder.  Press  the 

screwdriver lightly into the slot and gently lever the fuse holder (plastic cap) carefully out of the respective 
socket. Now you can take out the fuse holder and replace the fuse. 
 
 
 
For countries with

 220-240 V / 50- 60 Hz

 

please use the following fuse types: 
 

   

For countries with 

100-120 V / 50- 60 Hz  

please use the following fuse types: 
 

0.4 Ampere 

– time lag 

 

  0.8 Ampere 

– time lag
