The CD 1 comes with one 6922 tube. The 6922 tube may be
replaced with an ECC88/6DJ8 or E188CC/7308 with no
circuit modification. This tube was chosen for its reliability
and extremely low noise. The tube’s low noise heightens
dynamics and provides a natural tonal balance.
INSERTION OF THE TUBE
1. Using the screwdriver supplied, remove the cover of the
CD 1. For your convenience, only eight (approx.) of the
screws are installed at the factory.
2. When handling the tube, it is recommended that the
cotton glove provided be worn to prevent skin oils from
depositing on the glass surface.
3. Noting the location of the tube socket in the top view
photo (Figure 2) or directly on the PC Board. Once located,
take the tube and inspect the pins, noting the larger space
between two of the pins (see Figure 1). This space will
match with the socket. Insert the tube into the tube socket,
making sure all pins and pin holes are aligned. Do not
force the tube into the socket. “Rock” the tube gently
while pushing slowly until it is firmly seated.
After the insertion of the tube, replace the cover and fasten
it with the screws provided. The CD 1 is now ready for operation.
For further information on tube replacement, NOS (New Old
Stock) tubes, contact your dealer, a Sonic Frontiers
Customer Service Representative or The Parts Connection,
a division of Sonic Frontiers.
WARNING - DISCONNECT THE AC
DETACHABLE POWER CORD FROM THE
CD 1 AND WAIT 5 MINUTES BEFORE
REMOVING COVER, TUBES OR FUSE.
Note the larger space
between two of the pins and
holes for proper alignment
of tube and socket.
