THE REAR PANEL
AND HOW TO
CONNECT
8. LEFT and RIGHT BALANCED OUTPUTS
Connect cable with XLR type Balanced Connectors from the MCD7009 LEFT and RIGHT BAL-
ANCED OUTPUT jacks to the balanced CD or AUX input jacks of a Preamplifier or Control Center.
Using balanced connectors and cables can reduce noise and interference by as much as
40dB. This extra noise reduction can be a significant improvement, especially if the cables are
quite long. If cable lengths between the MCD7009 and the preamplifier inputs are short, (one
meter or less), you will probably find high quality unbalanced cables to be equally satisfactory.
You can use both the Balanced and Unbalanced Outputs simultaneously if you desire.
Balanced Jack Pin Configuration:
Pin 1
System Ground
Pin 2
+ Output
Pin 3
- Output
HOW TO CONNECT FOR NORMAL AUDIO PLAYBACK
Connect cables with RCA connectors from the LINE OUT L (Left) and R (Right) outputs to the
CD inputs of a Control Center or preamplifier.
HOW TO CONNECT THE MCD7009 DIGITAL
COAXIAL OUTPUT TO AN EXTERNAL DA CONVERTER
1. Set the DIGITAL OUT Switch (1) to the ON position.
2. Connect a coaxial cable (RG6 or RG59U) from the MCD7009 COAXIAL DIGITAL OUT to the
coaxial input of the external DA Converter.
3. Connect the analog outputs of the DAC to the CD inputs of the Control Center or preamplifier.
HOW TO CONNECT THE MCD7009 OPTICAL OUTPUT TO AN EXTERNAL DA CONVERTER
1. Set the DIGITAL OUT Switch (1) to the ON position.
2. Remove the protective cap from the MCD7009 OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT connector.
3. Connect an Optical cable from the MCD7009 OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT to the Optical input
of an external DA Converter.
4. Connect the analog outputs of the DA Converter to the CD inputs of the Control Center or
preamplifier.
HOW TO CONNECT TO OPERATE THE MCD7009
WITH THE REMOTE CONTROLLER FROM A MclNTOSH
REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM OR CONTROL CENTER THAT HAS NO CD DATA PORT
Connect a Control Cable with DIN connectors, from the MCD7009 CONTROL (4) receptacle
to the matching CD CONTROL connector on a Mclntosh Control Center or Remote Control
System. The Control Center Remote Controller will then operate the MCD7009 by sending IR
signals to the Control Center sensor and then on to the CD player. This connection allows the
following four player operations: PLAY. STOP. NEXT track and BACK track. A control cable is
included with the MCD7009.
HOW TO CONNECT TO OPERATE THE MCD7009 WITH THE REMOTE CONTROLLER FROM
A MclNTOSH REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM OR CONTROL CENTER THAT INCLUDES A CD
DATA PORT.
Connect a DATA cable from the MCD7009 DATA IN (5) receptacle to the CD DATA PORT of
a Mclntosh Control Center or Remote Control System.
(Do not connect a DIN Control cable when the DATA IN Is used.)
