If all is in order, the system is now ready to play music, and at last the sound of your
compact discs will be tolerable! Any CDs that have the De-emphasis process the player will
automatically correct this process.
The CD2.1x will improve over time and start to sound really well balanced. This is because
of the “bedding in” time taken by new electrical components inside the unit. Also, the CD
sound quality improves as the unit reaches its normal, stable operating temperature. The
CD need not be switched off each time after use. It is interesting to note that continuous
operation not only results in optimum sonic performance (since the unit is maintaining a
constant operating temperature) but also causes less electrical stress and so extends
component and valve life.
Please Note: that all our CD players have been designed to run into impedances of 100K or
above. Many transistor amplifiers and passive devices are not. We do not recommend less
than 50K as one of the problems is possible bass roll off. If you are in any doubt consult
your dealer. A modification can be made at the factory for which a charge is made and is
refundable should you buy an Audio Note amplifier from us.

AFTER CARE
No special maintenance is required for the CD2.1x. Cleaning is best made with a soft cloth
or brush similar to those sold by photographic stores for lens cleaning applications.
Use a cloth dampened with mildly warm water and a weak soap solution for removing
grease or oily substances. Strong or alcohol based solvents may cause damage to the CD’s
finish.
