This panel incorporates all the terminals for connecting the output signal to your preamplifier, AV receiver or integrated amplifier, and mains supply. Please remember that your Plinius CD101 Compact Disc Player is a high quality electronic instrument capable of an exceptional level of performance. Be sure that you understand your system’s requirements fully before you make any connection to this Compact Disc player. - Page 9 MAINS SWITCH The heavy-duty rocker switch turns the Mains/Line Power to the amplifier ON or OFF. The amplifier draws a moderately high current when switched on, so it is not good practice to rapidly turn the Mains switch on and off repeatedly. MAINS POWER CORD IEC SOCKET This connector is where the mains supply cable from your wall connects to the Compact Disc player.

REPEAT Press this button and the repeat light on the front panel will light. The CD101 will now play all tracks on the Compact Disc as normal, but then repeat all tracks from track 1 in an endless loop. It does not repeat one track only, it repeats the entire contents of the Compact Disc. - Page 11 Pressing this button toggles a Plinius integrated amplifier or preamplifier in and out of mute. Note that this button does not control the CD101 Compact Disc Player, and is included only to remove the need for two remotes, if more than one Plinius product is in your system.

NSTALLATION AND PLACEMENT AND VENTILATION Ventilation through and around your Plinius CD101 Compact Disc Player should be kept unimpeded, so ensure that the heat vents (slots in the lid) are not covered or restricted in any way. The Plinius CD101 design incorporates a very high level of mechanical de-coupling of the outputs. -
Page 13: Output Connection
Connect a pair of RCA inputs from your preamplifier or integrated amplifier to the RCA outputs on the back of the Plinius CD101. Make sure you connect the red coded cable to the red RIGHT RCA input, and the black (or white) cable to the black LEFT RCA input. Also make sure the RCA connectors are a snug fit and are inserted all the way in. -
