2.3 Installation and cooling
The CD3NG doesn’t produce much heat. You can put it in a rack as well as in a closet. Direct exposure to
sunlight is not recommended because this will heat up the CD3NG.
2.4 Connection to mains
Connect the player to the mains outlet by using the power cord which is delivered together with the unit.
Make shure that mains voltage is according to the value printed on the rear panel of the player (near mains
connector). Let it be switched off until all audio connections are made.
2.5 Connection to an amplifier
The analogue outputs (17) of the CD3NG deliver fixed signal levels. Connect them to the high level inputs of
a a preamp or integrated amp.
The RCA-cinch outputs and the balanced XLR outputs are fully decoupled from each other and can be used
independently.
2.6 Connection to digital recorders / external DACs
Connect the digital outputs (14) to the inputs of your digital recorder or external D/A-converter.
CAUTION:
Never connect the digital outputs to an analogue amplifier. The high frequencies can damage
Your amplifier or loudspeakers.
REMARK:
Thus the internal D/A-converter works with up to 192 kHz / 24 bits the CD3NG digital outputs
send digital data with the fixed CDA-format 44,1 kHz / 16 bits.
2.7 External IR-remote control
The CD3NG can be connected to an external IR-receiver. Use the IR-Jack (21). The plug is a 3,5mm stereo
headphone plug. Connect it according to sketch in chapter 2.2.
