Continual improvement policy

Arcam has a policy of continual improvement for its products. This means that designs and specifications are subject to change without notice.

Radio interference

The CD192 player is a digital audio device which has been designed to very high standards of electromagnetic compatibility.

Both CD players and DACs generate, and can radiate RF (radio frequency) energy. In some cases this can cause interference with FM and AM radio reception. If this is the case, keep the CD player and its connecting cables as far from the tuner and its aerials as possible. Connecting the CD player and the tuner to different mains sockets can also help to reduce interference.

EC COUNTRIES – These products have been designed to comply with directive 89/336/EEC. USA – These products comply with FCC requirements.

Laser radiation

If an Arcam CD player is operated whilst the outer casing is removed, invisible laser radiation could cause eye damage.
