MOON CD.5 CD Player
Operating the CD.5
We recommend that you leave your MOON CD.5 CD Player powered up at all times to maintain optimal performance. In the
event that you plan to be away from your home for a few days, powering off the CD Player may not be a bad idea. Once fully
“broken-in”, please keep in mind that your CD.5 will require several hours of playing time before it reaches its peak
performance after you’ve powered it up again.
Making the AC Connection
Connect the supplied AC power cable to the IEC receptacle, located on the rear panel of the integrated amplifier’s chassis.
Ensure that the AC wall outlet you use has a functioning ground. For the best sonic performance, it is preferable that you
plug your MOON CD.5 directly into a dedicated AC outlet and avoid using an extension cord. In order to obtain the maximum
performance from your audio system, we strongly recommend that the detachable power cord not come into physical contact
with any of the interconnect and speaker cables running to and from your CD.5. In the event that this can’t be avoided, you
should ensure that any cables coming into contact with each other are crossed at a ninety degree angle to minimize the
contact area.
Turning on your MOON
CD.5
for the first time
Prior to turning this CD Player on for the first time, make sure that every cable is properly connected to avoid any problems.
Then turn on your CD Player in the following manner:
1)
Flick the main rocker switch labeled “POWER” to the ‘1’ (on) position on the rear panel.
2)
Press the push button labeled “Standby” on the CD.5, the blue LED will confirm operation and the digital display
will show ‘no disc’. You are now ready to load a compact disc and begin listening to music.
On and Off Sequence
To avoid having any annoying noises (i.e. “thumps” and “pops”) emanate from your speakers when powering your CD.5 on or
off, you should
1)
Always power up your CD.5 CD Player before powering up your preamplifier and/or integrated amplifier.
2)
Always power down your CD.5 CD Player after powering down your preamplifier and/or integrated amplifier.
