Eight Channel Audio Configuration

Setup Operations

Setup involves two parts. First, the overall configuration is chosen and any internal switches can be set as shown. Then the final levels are set during playback later. These setup features are for the more advanced user. Most setup parameters can be done using the menus.

Configuration Options

The Player can be configured for audio and home theater applications. We have listened to this product in the most demanding audio systems and are confident that you will not find a more neutral 2 channel CD/DAD/ DVD-Audio Player.

One time configuration is accomplished with user settings inside the product.

Opening the Player

Place the Player upside down on a soft surface like a tablecloth or carpet. Disconnect the power supply. Remove the three philips screws on the front edge of the cover. Turn the Player over and remove the three philips screws from the back edge of the cover. Carefully separate the base from the cover by sliding it toward the front. Tip the cover forward and place with the front down, right in front of the player. Take care not to disconnect the ribbon cables to the front panel. Place the Player so that the RCA connectors are facing AWAY from you. This way all the diagrams will be oriented correctly.

The photo shows the location of the switches and jumpers. The following diagrams and switch settings show what can be done.

First we show the standard factory settings in a stereo application. Notice that each output channel besides the fronts is comprised of the source channels you select. In the standard settings, the center channel out is made from the center channel source as the third switch is turned on. If you did not want a center but an extra sub channel, you could turn on the AUX-S switch #4.
