OPERATION
Enhanced use
Filter switch
Not all amplifiers/receivers and speakers can handle the
extended frequency response of SACD. Your SACD is
equipped with a switchable filter on the rear. The
factory setting for this filter is 40 KHz, which is safe for
all systems. If your system can handle the full frequency
range of SACD (check the relevant manuals or, when in
doubt, contact your dealer) do the following:
Set the switch to the required output signal.
Position 1 : 40 kHz - output signal on all speakers is set
to 40 kHz.
Position 2 : 50 kHz FRONT/50 kHz OTHERS - output
signal on front speakers is set to 50 kHz;
output signal on all other speakers is set to
40 kHz.
Position 3 : 50 kHz - output signal on all speakers is set
to 50 kHz.
Warning: If you are not sure that your system is
able to handle audio input signals up to 50 KHz,
do not change the output signal. You may
damage your speakers or amplifier/receiver.
System grounding
When your system consists of a lot of components,
occasional disturbance problems (like howling noises)
may occur. These problems can be solved by grounding
the system.
1
Unscrew the ground connector GND halfway,
connect an earth wire to the connector and tighten
the connector again.
2
Connect the earth wire to the ground connector of
the next component in the system.
3
If ground connectors are available on the other
components of your system, ground the other
components in the same way.
