Connections - Burmester 061 Owner's Manual

All terminals for hook up are located on the rear panel. While connecting the CD player all components of the music
system must be turned off.
CAUTION: Before connecting the unit please check if the input voltage of the 061 is equal to the local voltage of
your wall outlet. Make sure the ground lead in your power outlet is working correctly. A missing or faulty ground is
extremely dangerous!
In case of doubt contact a licensed electrician.
AC mains terminal Make sure the AC mains switch (20) is set to OFF. Connect the appliance connector of the
power cord to the AC mains terminal (21). Then plug the power cord into the wall outlet.
There are various possibilities for connecting the CD player, depending upon the kind of audio components and
auxiliary devices used. For the best connections please also refer to the owner's manual of your audio components
or auxiliary devices. The following explains the various hookup possibilities:
HOOKUP TO A DIGITAL AMPLIFIER
Digital outputs The player provides two digital outputs for connecting a digital amplifier:
The terminal TOTX (24) sends optical signals via optical cable with TOSHIBA-norm plugs.
The terminal RCA (25) requires a 75ohms coax cable with RCA plugs.
Choose whichever connection sounds best to you if your amplifier allows both types of
hookup.
CAUTION: The terminal RCA (25) must not be connected to the analog input of an amplifier
because this could damage the amp or the loudspeakers.
HOOKUP OF A DIGITAL SOURCE COMPONENT
Digital inputs The CD player 061 offers three digital inputs for the connection of external digital source
components such as DAT recorders or CD players:
The terminals RCA1 (28) and RCA2 (27) receive electronic signals and require 75ohms
coax cable with RCA plugs.
The terminal TORX (26) receives optical signals and requires an optical cable with plugs
according to TOSHIBA norm.
Choose whichever connection sounds best to you if your amplifier allows both types of
hookup.
CAUTION: The digital inputs of the 061 can process PCM stereo data with a sample rate up
to 192kHz. If the digital source offers a sample rate with more than 96kHz you must switch
the CD player to 192kHz with the AUDIO button of the remote control. This is done when
the AUDIO LED (11) lights up.
