NEVER wet the inside of the MOON 300 D with any liquid. If a liquid substance does enter your MOON 300 D, immediately disconnect it from the AC mains and take it to your MOON dealer for a complete check-up.
The performance of your 300 D will continue to improve during the first 400 hours of listening. This is the result of a “break- in” period required for the numerous high quality electronic parts used throughout this DAC.
You should avoid placing it near a heat source as this could compromise the DAC’s performance and reliability. The 300 D uses a toroidal transformer; even though it is well shielded, you should not place the player too close to source components sensitive to EMI, such as turntables and phono preamplifiers.
Directly above the “Standby” button is a vertical array of six (6) red LED’s to indicate the sampling frequency of the digital input signal: 192 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 96 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 48 kHz and 44.1kHz. Only when the MOON 300 D has successfully locked onto an input signal will one of these LED’s illuminate.
Your MOON 300 D is equipped with a 1/8” mini jack input for use with aftermarket infrared remote control receivers. The “IR in” connector is located to the right of the analog audio outputs. Finally on the right side is the “AC Power” section with a main power switch (“0”=off, “1”=on) and IEC receptacle for the included AC power cord.
We recommend that you leave your MOON 300 D DAC powered up at all times to maintain optimal performance. In the event that you plan to be away from your home for a few days, switching the 300 D into “Standby” mode may not be a bad idea.
