We recommend to connect signal cables to the CD-player when the CD-player and all the other units of the audio
system is switched off.
The CD-player has two types of analog audio outputs: unbalanced audio signal with RCA plugs (phono plugs)
The CD-player has got one RCA standard SPDIF digital audio output. Digital signal level is 0.5Vpp when
terminated in 75 ohm load. This is the standard load impedance of external DAC's and other recording equipment.
USE & PLACEMENT
The Consonance ORFEO should be placed on a flat, hard surface for proper isolation against vibrations. The CD-
player performs best after being switched on for about 30 minutes for heating upage A certain space is required
for air circulation above and below the CD-player. The CD-player must never be placed on a carpet or similar
surface that obstructs air circulation through the component. Nor must it be covered while in use or placed on a
narrow shelf or in another confined space.
CLEANING
The top cover , the front panel and side panels are made of brushed / blasted and anodized aluminum.
Fingerprints or stains on the front panel, knobs or top cover can be removed with a cloth moistened with warm
water.
We wish you good luck in setting up and connecting your new CD-player and hope that it will give you many years
of joyful natural sounding music experiences!
