• Automatic standby on-off switching of connected equipment via 12V trigger output.

• Analogue output level selectable between fixed and variable.

• Three display brightness levels with on/off options.

• Auto standby function with on/off options.

Note: 

The 8300CD should be used with the variable outputs connected directly to a 

power amplifier. If there are gain controls on the power amplifiers, set them to maximum and 
leave them there. Use the volume control on the 8300CD exclusively to alter the level. 

If you wish to connect the outputs of 8300CD into a pre-amplifier, you may wish to disable 
the volume control functions, so that the player operates at a fixed gain. In this mode the unit 
behaves as a CD/DAC operating in the digital domain. 

Unpacking

• Unpacking the product fully. The carton should contain:

•The Audiolab 8300CD

•One IEC power cord suitable for your area.

•One CD-ROM for USB driver.

•One Remote handset with two AAA batteries.

•This instruction manual.

If an item is missing or damaged report this to your dealer as soon as possible. Retain the 
packing for safe transport of your unit. If you dispose of the packing, do so with regard to 
any recycling regulation in your area.

Placement

The unit is designed to run warm during normal operation but ensure you do not block any 
ventilation openings.

Place the unit on a sturdy shelf or table. If you use an equipment rack ensure the unit has 
adequate ventilation and is on its own shelf. 

Ensure your mains voltage corresponds to the rating plate on the rear of the product’s power 
supply. If in doubt, consult your dealer. If you move to an area with a different mains voltage 
seek advice from an Audiolab appointed dealer or a competent service technician.
