Check to make sure your Wadia 860 Compact Disc Player has been
manufactured for operation at your AC line voltage. Attempting to use
your Wadia 860 Compact Disc Player at any voltage other than specified
on the rear of the unit may damage the unit. Damage caused by improper
operation is not covered by Wadia warranty If the voltage specified is
different from your AC voltage, contact your Wadia dealer.
The best performance is obtained when the Wadia 860 is plugged
directly into the wall with the power cord provided. The Wadia 860 has
power conditioning, surge suppression and an extremely sophisticated
overall protection scheme. It should not be necessary to use surge
protectors, power conditioners or aftermarket power cords. If you wish
to experiment with any of these devices, work closely with your dealer -
and most of all, trust your own ears.
Avoid allowing static shocks to be applied to the inputs or outputs. To
prevent static shocks, touch any grounded surface, such as the Wadia 860
chassis, before connecting or removing a cable. It is unlikely that a static
shock will damage the unit, but it may cause the Wadia 860 Compact Disc
Player circuitry to "lock-up" (see
Inputs and outputs can be safely connected to the Wadia 860

We strongly recommend that you use your Wadia 860 Compact Disc Player
connected directly to your power amplifier. Even if you purchased your Wadia
860 with the intention of connecting it to your preamplifier, we suggest that
you try direct connection to your amplifier. Many listeners are surprised by
the improvement in performance over even the most expensive preamplifiers.
To connect your Wadia 860 to a power amplifier, ensure that your power
amplifier is turned off, then simpl connect your analog interconnects from
the Wadia 860 analog outputs to r he amplifier's inputs.
While the Wadia 860 Compact Disc Player was designed to be used without
a preamplifier, no compromises were made in its design that will prevent
excellent operation in a conventional system with a preamplifier.
When using a preamplifier, bypass the Wadia 860 volume control by setting
it to its maximum setting.
