INSTALLATION

Connections general

 

Analog connections

For playback on the CD recorder from the CD changer deck the following outputs are present:

Digital coaxial output (CD & CD-R)

Analog output (CD & CD-R)

We advise you to connect these to the TAPE or CD-R input on your amplifier.

For external recording the following inputs are present:

Digital optical input

Digital coaxial input

Analog input (stereo)

The connections you make will depend upon the possibilities your audio equipment offers. Please refer to the user manuals for your other audio equipment first.

Digital recordings (optical or coaxial) give the best performance in audio and usability (e.g. auto-track).

(The digital optical connection is less sensitive to external disturbances).

If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high quality Analog-Digital-Convertor of your set will ensure very good audio performance when recordings are made from the analog input.

Playback via the digital coaxial output of the CD recorder gives the best audio performance.

If your equipment does not offer digital connections, the high quality Digital-Analog-Convertor of the set ensures a very good sound quality via the analog output.

We advise you to always establish both digital and analog connections. In this way you can always make analog recordings when digital recording is not possible.

We have described the most common ways of connecting the CD recorder. If you still have difficulties with the connections you can always contact the Philips Consumer Service desk in your country.

This connection must be made for playback on the CD recorder deck as well as the CD changer deck (cable 2). Cable 1 is only required if you want to make recordings from an external analog source.
