Thank you for purchasing this Cambridge Audio CD player. This model
is part of our commitment to the on-ggoing development of the
Cambridge Audio range. We hope that you will appreciate the results
and enjoy many years of listening pleasure from them.

As with previous Cambridge Audio CD players, the CD5 makes use of a
custom Cambridge Audio servo solution and transport, at the heart of
which is a VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) circuit which dynamically
adjusts in real time the focusing, tracking and output level of the laser
for the maximum retrieval of digital information. To ensure the very best
performance there are also multiple separate power supplies for the
D/A converter circuitry, audio filters, clocks and other stages, as well as
extensive use of low impedance film capacitors.

The CD5 CD player also now features MP3 playback and allows naviga-
tion of MP3 folders on the disc directly from the remote control and front
panel.

Your CD player can only be as good as the system it is connected to.
Please do not compromise on your amplifier, speakers or cabling.
Naturally we particularly recommend amplification from the Cambridge
Audio range, which have been designed to the same exacting standards
as our CD players. Your dealer can also supply excellent quality
Cambridge Audio interconnects to ensure your system realises its full
potential.

Thanks for taking the time to read this manual; we do recommend you
keep it for future reference.

Technical Director
