SERVICE AND CARE
CARE AND CLEANING
Unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Clean the cabinet housing and front panel of the CD
303T SACD Professional Version with a soft cloth and a glass cleaner (such as Windex).
Removing the cover during cleaning is not advised. The frequency of cleaning will vary
based on the cleanliness of the environment and the number of hours the CD 303T SACD
Professional Version is operated.
TUBE REPLACEMENT
The CD 303T SACD Professional Version has four 12AU7 tubes for audio gain and
output buffering. They should provide years of trouble free performance. You may want
to experiment by “rolling” some vintage 12AU7 tubes in the CD 303T SACD
Professional Version. You can access the four tubes by opening the small panel on the
top of the chassis. Be sure the unit is unplugged and cool before opening the top panel
and removing any tubes. Gently pull the tubes out by pulling straight up. When inserting
tubes, be careful to line the pins of the tube with the socket in the CD 303T SACD
Professional Version.
