About the GamuT CD 3
Design considerations
The cabinet is a rigid construction with use of massive and genuine high grade materials, such as Alu-
minum and stainless steel. This does not only contribute to the touch and feel factor, but is essential
for a long lasting life even in a tough environment.
A GamuT product is build to be used daily and we expect our product to be in the “
fi
eld” for many
years to come.
Under normal circumstances the CD 3 should not need inspection or service for quite a while.
Should you experience break down or worn parts, these are easily replaceable or repairable and our
service partners around the world would be happy to help.
Electrical circuitry considerations
All components used in the CD 3 are of the highest quality and have been selected through intensive
listing sessions from the PCB itself over the non-magnetic chassis to the legendary Neutrik XLR con-
nectors.
The CD 3 is based on following Gamut specialties:
Double suspended mehcanism
Soft coupled feet suspend the complete chassis
Internally shielding devides the chassis internally into three seperate cabinets
Sound and vibration damped mechanism
Separate power supply for control circuit and audio circuits
Internal cabling by “Van den hul” high quality cable
Digital output with 75 ohm termination option
Very powerful power supply with high bandwith and low impedance
Unpacking
Carefully cut open the box with a knife. Remove the cables from the carton and lift up the CD 3 from
inside the box. Remove the protective plastic enclosing the ampli
fi
er. Please be careful not to place
the CD 3 on the front panel or bend the various terminals on the backside when doing so.
Remove the protective tape assuring placement of the tray during transport. The tray is not locked
when inside the player and the player is not connected to mains, by turning the player up side down
the tray will open.
It is therefore crutial that you ensure remounting of the piece of adhesive tape
again if transport is needed later on!
Please keep the packaging material in a safe place as it might come in handy later.
