CD Player

Use a pair of XLR (balanced) or RCA (unbalanced) interconnects between the analog output of the CD10 and the CD input of your preamplifier or
integrated amplifier.

When using the balanced connection, the Pin 2 must be positive. Make sure this complies with your other audio equipment.
(Consult with your dealer for the modification of the pin connection if necessary)

The balanced and the unbalanced outputs can be connected simultaneously.

To use the CD10 as a dedicated CD transport uses the Digital Output section. The signal output can be directed to an external D/A converter or a
digital recording apparatus. The use of a top quality digital, coaxial or Toslink cable is highly recommended for this application (Consult your local
dealer for recommendations).

Fig. 1] The Rear Panel

There are three sets of inputs, one coaxial and two Toslink.

All digital apparatus like DVD player, LD player, Satellite Set Top Box, MD player can be connected with the CD10 as long as their sampling rate is
under 24Bit/96kHz.

Most DVD players are equipped with a minimum of one coaxial and one Toslink digital outputs.
For connecting to a Surround Processor, you can choose between the coaxial or the Toslink connection. For listening to 2-channel audio where the
primary focus is musical reproduction quality rather than surround sound experience, we recommend the use of the coaxial digital input connection
with a first grade 75 Ohm nominal digital cable.
