3. Operating the Transport
Connecting the Transport to the Wall Outlet
Your transport is equipped with a high-quality toroidal power transformer. It operates at either AC 230 V, 50 Hz or 115 V,
50-60 Hz. We have pre-adjusted the transport to the voltage requirements of the country of purchase.
If you plan to use the component in a country with a different voltage, be sure to consult a qualified engineer to adjust the volt-
age. For safety reasons, the voltage selector has been placed inside the transport itself. It is also necessary to replace the fuse
when selecting a new operating voltage: At 230 V, a 0.5-AT fuse is required, at 115 V, a 1.0 AT fuse is required.
Please note: If you connect the device to a wall outlet and the voltage setting is incorrect, the transport may be seriously dam-
aged. Such damage is not covered by the warranty. A change of voltage by a qualified engineer is equally not covered by the
warranty.
Caution
: Disconnect the transport from the wall outlet before opening the cabinet to prevent a serious health risk including loss
of life.
Basic Connections
Your CD transport has been designed for connection to a Digital-Analog-Converter like our mbl 1611 F.
To connect it to a D/A Converter, the mbl 1621 A is equipped with the following connectors (located at the back of the trans-
port):
• one XLR connector (AES/EBU)
• two RCA connectors (SP DIF/AES)
Optional the CD transport can be equipped with a Glass ST connector.
Connect your CD-transport (output) to a suitable D/A-Converter (input) via a suitable cable. Your mbl authorised dealer will help
you choose the right cable for your purpose – do not hesitate to ask about the advantages and disadvantages of certain con-
nector types.
Please note
that only corresponding connectors on each side (input/output) may be connected.
Glass fiber cables must not be bent. The ST glass fiber connector is equipped with a bayonet mount. To connect, insert the plug
into the connector and twist it clockwise.
