Setting Options
The Nº31.5 gives you the ability to "customize" its operation to suit your particular
needs and/or preferences. One of these options pertains exclusively to how the
Nº31.5 itself operates: Index 0. The other options address the way in which the
Nº31.5 interacts with other Linked Mark Levinson components such as the Nº30.5
Reference Digital Processor and the Nº38S Preamplifier.
Note: To take advantage of linked functions, the various compo-
nents must be connected via their communication ports. (See Rear
Panel and Setup and Installation.)
The stand-alone option that is always available addresses whether the Nº31.5 plays
the space between tracks called "Index 0." This space is analogous to the "lead-in
grooves" of vinyl LPs.
When this option has been selected, pressing

If you prefer all track and index operations to use Index 0 as
the effective beginning of a given track (to hear the applause be-
fore a song on a live recording, for example), you may select
