Hookups
Connecting the deck to an amplifier
Connect the amplifier to the LINE (ANALOG) IN/OUT jacks
using the audio connecting cords (supplied), making sure to
match the color-coded cords to the appropriate jacks on the
components: red (right) to red and white (left) to white. Be
sure to make connections firmly to prevent hum and noise.
Connecting the deck to a digital component such as a CD
player, DAT deck, digital amplifier, or another MD deck
Connect the component through the DIGITAL IN/OUT
connectors with two optical cables (not supplied). Take the
caps off the connectors before plugging in the cables.
z Automatic conversion of digital sampling rates
during recording
A built-in sampling rate converter automatically
converts the sampling frequency of various digital
sources to the 44.1 kHz sampling rate of your MD deck.
This allows you to record sources such as 32- and 48-
kHz DAT or satellite broadcasts, as well as compact
discs and other MDs.
Notes
If “Din Unlock” or “Cannot Copy” appears in the display,
recording through the digital connector is not possible.
In this case, record the program source through the LINE
(ANALOG) IN jacks with INPUT set to ANALOG.
When recording through the DIGITAL IN connector, you
cannot adjust the recording level.
Connecting the AC power cord
Connect the AC power cord to a wall outlet or to the
outlet of a timer.
