Random Play

that enable you to let the machine select the
tracks to be played in a random order. The 
random modes may be started at any time by
pressing the

this mode, all tracks on the current disc will be
played in random order, and then the unit will
advance to the next disc in order and play all
tracks on that disc randomly. When each disc is

tracks from the disc in use and play them ran-
domly. After these two tracks play, another disc
will be randomly selected and two tracks will
play from that disc. This pattern of a randomly
selected disc, and the play of two random tracks
from each disc, will continue until all tracks on
all discs have been played. At that point the unit
will stop.

HDCD

®

HDCD, which stands for High Definition
Compatible Digital, is a sophisticated process
that enables the FL 8370 to deliver outstanding
digital-to-analog decoding no matter what type
of CD is played.

When a disc with the HDCD logo is played, the
FL 8370 is able to take advantage of the spe-
cial recording process that is used in the cre-
ation of HDCD discs. Although HDCD discs are
playable on any CD player, when they are
played on a unit such as the FL 8370, the spe-
cial circuitry delivers audio with extraordinary
fidelity, stunning resolution and the highest
possible overall quality. The HDCD process
effectively cancels the additive and subtractive
distortions that are present in other recordings.

No special adjustment is required to play an
HDCD disc. Simply play the disc as you would
any other CD, and the FL 8370 will automati-
cally sense that it is an HDCD recording. An
indicator will illuminate on the front panel to
remind you that an HDCD disc is playing.

It is important to note that the HDCD process is
completely compatible with standard recordings.
Its high-quality digital-to-analog circuitry pro-

vides enhanced playback from all standard CD
audio discs

Play Exchange

The FL 8370’s Play Exchange feature allows you
to change discs while the machine is playing.
Using this feature, you can have uninterrupted
play of an unlimited number of discs, since the
drawer may be opened and discs changed
while another disc is playing.

To use the Play Exchange function, simply press
the 

Open/Close

button 

!

at any time while

the unit is in the Play mode. The disc drawer
will open and two discs will be available for
change. Replace either disc, or both, as desired.
To reach the other two discs, press the 

Disc-

Skip

button 

* n

. You may now remove and

change either of these two discs.

When you have finished making any disc
changes, press the 

Open/Close

button 

!

. The

drawer will close and play will continue with
normal functions.

Time Display

The FL 8370’s time display is capable of show-
ing a wide range of information about a CD.

In normal operation the display will show the
total running time of the CD that is currently
being played. Each time the track changes, the
time display will reset to 

and begin to

increase again as the disc plays.

To view the time remaining on an individual
track, press the 

Time

button 

6 k

once. The

display will now show the time left in the track
currently playing.

To view the total playing time remaining on a
disc, press the

twice. In

this Time Display mode the
