About the Switch Marked
“STANDARD” on the rear
panel of the player
The Super Audio CD includes high frequencies beyond
the audible range, although the design of normal
amplifiers and speakers is based on characteristics
corresponding to the audible range.
Therefore, if you increase the volume or treble excessively
during Super Audio CD playback, noise may occur or the
amplifier’s protect circuit may be activated. To prevent
these problems, set the switch at the rear of this player in
accordance with the connected amplifier. This enables
you to match the output signal to the amplifier
characteristics.
Connecting to a normal amplifier
This switch is set to “STANDARD” at the factory. When
you connect this player to a normal amplifier, leave the
switch as it is. Never set it to “CUSTOM,” otherwise noise
may be produced or the speakers and the amplifier may
be damaged.
Connecting to the Preamplifier TA-E1 (not
supplied) and the Power Amplifier TA-N1
(not supplied)
When you connect this player to the Preamplifier TA-E1
(not supplied) and the Power Amplifier TA-N1 (not
supplied), remove the cover as illustrated below, and set
the switch to “CUSTOM.”
The “CUSTOM” mode enables you to enjoy wider range
of frequencies.
Note
When you record the audio signals of a Super Audio CD to a tape
deck (Cassette deck etc.), set the switch to “STANDARD” even if
the player is connected to the Preamplifier TA-E1 and the Power
Amplifier TA-N1.
Hooking Up the Power
Connect the supplied mains lead to the AC IN terminal on
the player.
About the mains lead
European models only
Connect the supplied mains lead to the mains.
U.S.A. and Canadian models only
The supplied mains lead has a 3-pronged grounded plug.
If you are using 3-pronged grounded mains, the plug can
be inserted directly into the mains. However, if the socket
is a 2-pronged grounded mains, use the supplied plug
adapter or a commercially available plug adapter.

•
When the width of the mains are a different size
Use the supplied plug adapter.
•
When the width of the mains are the same size
Use a commercially available plug adapter. In this case,
you can check the polarity of the mains with a
commercially available spark-testing screwdriver. It is
the pronged ground that does not light the neon grow
lamp even if you insert the spark-testing screwdriver
into the mains. Insert the blades so that the “N pole”
can be inserted to the ground on the plug.
If noise (hum) is produced
Noise may be caused by an electric potential difference on
the ground circuit.* In this case, use the supplied plug
adapter and be careful not to connect the ground lead to
anything.
* Although the ground of the domestic mains is normally a
safety ground, a few electrical potential differences may be
produced, depending on the mains. Therefore, use of the
supplied 3-pronged mains lead may lessen the quality of the
audio signal or may produce humming noise.
