COMPACT DISC PLAYER
Rear Panel Functions
The rear panel incorporates all the terminals for connecting the output signal to your
preamplifier, AV receiver or integrated amplifier and connection to the mains supply.
Please remember that your Plinius Mauri Compact Disc Player is a high quality
electronic instrument capable of an exceptional level of performance. Be sure that
you understand your system’s requirements fully before you make any connection to
this Compact Disc Player.
1. OUTPUT TERMINALS
Connections for preamplifiers or integrated amplifiers are provided on the rear panel.
Connections are available for analogue single ended RCA, and balanced XLR cables,
Note that the only time the analogue outputs are ‘live’ is when a disc is playing.
The XLR output pin configuration used in all Plinius products is:
PIN 1 to GND
PIN 2 to +Signal
PIN 3 to –Signal
NOTE: Because of the way balanced XLR outputs are configured it is not
recommended to connect both XLR and RCA at the same time.
2. GROUND LIFT SWITCH
This switch allows the signal ground to be disconnected from the chassis. In some
installations a hum loop may exist due to duplicate ground paths from different
equipment. Use this switch to remove the connection from 0V to ground thus
allowing some flexibility in your particular set-up.
3. REMOTE IR SOCKET
This socket is for connecting to an external remote control sender. Some companies
manufacture these devices to enable multi-room remote control. Please see your
Plinius dealer for further advice.
