| 3 | AC POWER CORD SOCKET | |
|
|
| This socket accepts AC mains power via the supplied AC power cord. |
| 4 | FUSE COMPARTMENT | |
|
|
| The panel surrounding the main power switch is also a hinged cover for |
|
|
| the Nº31.5’s fuse compartment. The Nº31.5 uses two |
|
|
| fuses (type T1A |
|
|
|
|
Warning! |
|
| Never attempt to open the fuse compartment without first |
|
|
| removing the AC power cord from the Nº31.5. If you need to |
|
|
| replace the fuses, always use the same type of fuse. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| To open the fuse compartment, insert the tip of a small, |
|
|
| driver into the slot at the top edge of this panel. Gently pry open the top |
|
|
| edge of the compartment cover. |

|
|
| These communication ports allow the Nº31.5 to “link” to certain compat- |
|
|
| ible Mark Levinson components via the Madrigal Communications Link sys- |
|
|
| tem (MCL). (See Setting Options.) When making these connections (which |
|
|
| resemble large versions of standard U.S. telephone connectors), make sure |
|
|
| that the Link cable’s locking tabs engage securely in the components’ com- |
|
|
| munication ports. |
|
|
| To set up a Linked system consisting only of transport and processor: |
|
|
| 1. Using a Link cable (see Madrigal Communications Link), connect |
|
|
| the master port on the Mark Levinson digital processor to the |
|
|
| Nº31.5’s slave in port. |
|
|
| 2. Make sure that the digital audio connection between the two op- |
|
|
| erates (you should see “44.1” on the processor, indicating that it |
|
|
| has locked onto the Nº31.5’s output). |
|
|
| 3. Press play on the |
|
|
| To add multiple Mark Levinson transports to the system, simply connect the |
|
|
| first Nº31.5’s slave out port to the second Nº31.5’s slave in port. Subsequent |
|
|
| transports are connected from slave out to slave in in a “daisy chain.” |
|
|
| If you are linking a Mark Levinson preamplifier, it must be the last compo- |
|
|
| nents in this “daisy chain.” Run a Link cable from the last slave out port to |
|
|
| the slave port of the Mark Levinson preamplifier. (Mark Levinson power |
|
|
| amplifiers employ a different, special linking connection from the preampli- |
|
|
| fier.) |
|
|
|
|
Caution: |
|
| Connecting the communication ports other than as |
|
|
| described in this manual may damage the Nº31.5 and the |
|
|
| digital processor, and will void the products’ warranties. |
