Using the AKURATE KONTROL with a Linn AKURATE CD player

If an AKURATE CD is being used as a two-channel (stereo) source, simply connect the AKURATE CD’s FRONT A or B analogue line outputs to the AKURATE KONTROL’s 1/FRONT ANALOGUE AUDIO INPUTS (the AKURATE KONTROL is factory configured for an AKURATE CD to be connected to this input).

If an AKURATE CD is being used as a multi-channel source there are advantages in operation when using the AKURATE KONTROL:

•The AKURATE KONTROL will choose an appropriate surround sound format for a disc’s audio stream.

•When playing a CD you will be able to select the Dolby Pro Logic II surround sound format.
