Connecting the CDR-201A

1Connecting to an amplifier/Tuner amplifier

Connect the CDR-201A to the CDR, TAPE or MD terminal on the amplifier/Tuner amplifier.

Connect the red connectors of the supplied audio connection cables to the R-channel terminals and the white connectors to the L-channel terminals.

Make sure the connectors are properly inserted all the way. If the connectors are not properly connected, noise or improper operation may result.

Do not bundle the audio cables together with power cords or speaker cables. Doing so may cause deterioration of the audio signal.

2Connecting the zcable

With Onkyo components that are equipped with an zconnector, use the supplied zcable to connect the zconnector to the zconnector of the CDR-201A.

The zconnectors are only effective if they are used in conjunction with an Onkyo amplifier with an z connector. Do not connect to a component other than an Onkyo component with an zconnector. Doing so may damage the CDR-201A.

The function of the upper and lower zconnectors are the same. Connect to either one.

Connecting the zcable only does not make the system operational. You must also connect the audio cables as well.

3Connecting to the digital input

Using the digital input, you can record digital audio from compact disc players, DAT decks, and other digital audio components that have a digital output. Connect using the supplied optical digital cable and either the DIGITAL INPUT 1 and 2 input on the CDR-201A. You can also connect to amplifiers that are equipped with digital output terminals.

Notes:

The optical digital terminal is provided with a protection cap installed. When necessary, remove this protection cap and store it safely. When not using the optical digital input terminal, be sure to put the cap back on the terminal.

To perform digital input recording, you must connect to the optical digital input terminal. If the digital connection is not made, "D.In Unlock" will appear in the display.

4Connecting to the digital output

Using the digital output, you can connect to MD recorders, CD recorders, DAT deck recorders, and other digital audio recorders that have optical digital input connectors for making digital recordings. You can also connect to amplifiers that are equipped with digital input terminals.

5Using the AC outlet on the CDR-201A

An AC outlet is available on the CDR-201A for you to connect your own audio devices.
