CDX2

7. CDX2 Introduction and Installation

The CDX2 CD Player can be operated either from its internal power supply or, for improved performance, from an external
Naim CD 555PS or XPS Power Supply. Connection of the XPS Power Supply is illustrated in Diagram 11.2. CD player control
and operation is described in Sections 16, 17 and 18.
The CDX2 should be installed on a dedicated equipment stand intended for the purpose. To improve sound quality the player
has hard metallic feet which may blemish any delicate surface on which it is placed. Do not stand the player directly on top
of another item of Naim Audio equipment. Care should be taken to ensure that the player is level.
The CDX2 is fitted with both analogue and S/PDIF digital output options selectable using a rear panel switch.
A transit screw on the underside of the CDX2 should be removed before use and must be replaced if the unit is to be moved
or re-packed and shipped. The transit screw must not be used in any other Naim product. Do not invert the player once the
transit screw is removed.
The player (and external power supply if used) should be installed in its final location before connecting cables or switching
on. Ensure that power amplifiers are switched off and the preamplifier volume is turned down before the player (or external
power supply) is switched on. The player power button is located on the rear panel. Power supply power buttons are located
on their front panels.
The player and power supply are heavy and care should be taken when lifting or moving them. Make sure that the surface on
which they are to be placed can support their weight.
