recording machine. Use a high quality fibre optic interconnect cable  
designed specifically for audio use.  
Like all audiophile electronic components, this unit will perform best once  
it has warmed up. When using for the first time it is advisable that it is left  
on, playing music, for at least 36 hours prior to critical listening. For  
subsequent use, a warm up period of 10-15 minutes is recommended for

a variable output level.  
5. AC POWER SOCKET
