Adcom GCD-700 - Manual (Page 4)

UNPACKING
Before your new GCD-700 left our factory, it was carefully inspected for physical imperfections and tested for all electrical
parameters as a routine part of ADCOM's systematic quality control. This, along with full operational and mechanical testing,
should ensure a product flawless in both appearance and performance. After you have unpacked the GCD-700, inspect it for
physical damage. Save the shipping carton and all packing material as they are intended to reduce the possibility of
transportation damage, should your CD player ever need to be shipped again. In the unlikely event damage has occurred, notify
your dealer immediately and request the name of the carrier so a written claim to cover shipping damages can be initiated.
THE RIGHT TO A CLAIM AGAINST A PUBLIC CARRIER CAN BE FORFEITED IF THE CARRIER IS NOT NOTIFIED
PROMPTLY
IN WRITING AND IF THE SHIPPING CARTON AND PACKING MATERIALS ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR
INSPECTION BY THE CARRIER. SAVE ALL PACKING MATERIALS UNTIL THE CLAIM HAS BEEN SETTLED.
INSTALLING THE GCD-700
Although the GCD-700 does not generate much heat, you will ensure its long-term, trouble-free operation if you keep it away
from external sources of heat such as radiators or heat registers and provide reasonable ventilation. The GCD-700 should
never be placed with other heat producing components in a cabinet or enclosure that lacks proper ventilation.
When placing the GCD-700 with other stereo components, do not stack more than thirty pounds of additional equipment on top
of the CD player as damage may occur.
For use in professional installations, the GCD-700 may be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack using the optional RM-4 rack
mount adapters available through you local ADCOM dealer.
NOTE
WHEN PLACING THE GCD-700 ON A SHELF OR IN A RACK ENSURE THERE IS ENOUGH ROOM FOR THE DRAWER
TO FULLY OPEN. YOU WILL NEED AT LEAST NINE INCHES OF SPACE IN FRONT OF THE CD PLAYER TO
GUARANTEE PROPER CLEARANCE.
REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
The performance of the GCD-700 depends greatly on the interconnection cables used for the player itself and its associated
equipment. All the output signal connections should be made using only high quality, low-loss audio cables such as the one
supplied with the GCD-700. The Fixed, Variable, and Digital outputs are clearly labeled on the rear panel, as well as their
respective LEFT and RIGHT channels where applicable.
WHENEVER CONNECTIONS TO OR FROM THE GCD-700 ARE BEING MADE, BE SURE THAT THE GCD-700 AND ALL
ASSOCIATED COMPONENTS ARE TURNED OFF.
