Delta

70.2

CD

player

and

Delta

CD

transport

handbook

Introduction

The

Arcam

Delta

Compact

Disc

playing

systems

have been

designed

to

provide

the

best

possible

sound

quality

from

Compact

Disc.

Combine

the

Delta

70.2

CD

player

or

Delta

170

CD

transport

with

an

Arcam

Delta

range

amplifier,

tuner

and

digital

to

analogue

converter,

plus

a

pair

of

Arcam

loudspeakers

to

complete

a

formidable,

British

made

hi-fi

system.

The

Deita

70.2

CD

player

is

a

direct

development

of

the

widely

acclaimed

Delta

70

and

offers

the

excellent

sound

quality

and

comprehensive

range

of

features

expected

of

a

machine

with

such

a

pedigree.

New

features

include

twin

transformer

power

supplies,

an

improved

display

(which

can

be

switched

off

or

dimmed)

plus

a

remote

control

handset

which

includes

volume

and

direct

track

access

facilities.

The

Delta

170

CD

transport

is

a

top

quality

CD

player

without

the

D/A

converters

and

analogue

output

stages.

It

is

perhaps

analogous

to

a

top

quality

turntable

motor

unit

to

which

an

arm

and

cartridge

of

the

user's

choice

are

added.

It

is

simply

designed

to

provide

a

digital

output

signal

of

the

highest

quality

and

integrity.

The

Delta

170

must

be

used

with

an

outboard

D/A

converter

or

with

DAC

equipped

amplifiers

or

pre-amplifiers.

With

the

exception

of

the

remote

control

volume

facility,

the

Delta

170

includes

all

the

features

found

on

the

Delta

70.2.

To

obtain

the

very

best

performance

the

Delta

170

also

includes

a

CDM1

Mk

2

die

cast

transport

and

twin

digital

outputs

(one

optical

and

one

co-axial),

fed

from

their

own

transformers

and

power

supplies.

To

ensure

the

best

possible

isolation

from

external

vibration

the

Delta

170

comes

complete

with

a

set

of

AudioQuest

sorbothane

feet.

Please

study

this

manual

carefully

to

ensure

you

get

the

best

results

from

your

CD

machine.

Remember

that

your

dealer

is

there

to

help

you.

He

has

a

full

knowledge

of

all

Arcam

products

and

considerable

experience

of

their

use

in

a

variety

of

systems.

If,

however,

he

is

unable

to

answer

your

query

then

please

do

not

hesitate

to

contact

us

at

the

factory.

Important

Notice

1

Prior

to

installation

it

is

essential

to

remove

the

two

large

metal

transit

screws

which

protrude

from

the

base

of

your

machine.

2

These

can

be

safely

stored

in

the

holes

provided

on

the

back

panel

of

both

the

Delta

70.2

and

the

Delta

170.

DO

NOT

transport

either

machine

without

re-fitting

and

tightening

up

the

transit

screws.

2

Please

retain

the

carton

and

all

packing

materials

(including

the

transit

screws)

provided

with

your

player

so

that

it

may

be

re-packed

correctly

if

it

ever

becomes

necessary

to

transport

the

unit

or

to

return

it

for

service.

3

If

servicing

is

required

then

the

equipment

should

be

fitted

with

its

transit

screws,

properly

packed

and

returned

to

the

dealer

from

whom

it

was

purchased.

It

is

essential

to

include

a

covering

letter,

giving

your

name

and

address

and

a

brief

but

thorough

description

of

the

fault.

Installing

and

using

your

Delta

70.2/Delta

170

Mains

Supply

The

Arcam

Delta

70.2/Delta

170

may

be

supplied

to

work

on

any

of

the

following

a.c.

voltages:

240V, 220V,

120V,

110V,

100V.

Check

that

your

local

mains

supply

voltage

agrees

with

the

voltage

setting

indicated

on

the

back

panel

of

the

player.

If

not,

please

contact

the

factory

or

your

national

distributor

for

details

of

how

to

proceed

further.

A

detachable

mains

lead

is

supplied

with

the

player.

The

cores

of

this

lead

are

coloured

in

accordance

with

the

following

code:

Green

and

Yellow

—

Earth

Blue

—

Neutral

Brown

—

Live

Note:

Export

units

for

certain

markets

have

moulded

mains

plugs

fitted

as

standard.

As

the

colours

in

the

mains

lead

may

not

correspond

with

the

coloured

markings

identifying

the

terminals

in

your

plug

proceed

as

follows:

The

wire

which

is

coloured

GREEN

AND

YELLOW/

must

be

connected

to

the

terminal

in

the

plug

which

is

marked

by

the

letter

E

or

to

the

safety

earth

symbol

or

coloured

GREEN

or

GREEN

AND

YELLOW/.

The

wire

which

is

cotoured

BLUE

must

be

connected

to

the

terminal

which

is

marked

by

the

letter

N

or

coloured

BLACK

or

BLUE.

The

wire

which

is

coloured

BROW/N

must

be

connected

to

the

terminal

which

is

marked

by

the

letter

L

or

coloured

RED

or

BROWN.

Fuses

If

the

mains

plug

is

fused

fit

a

3

amp

fuse.

All

versions

of

the

Delta

70.2

and

Delta

170

are

fitted

with

an

anti-surge

mains

fuse,

rated

at

315mA

for

220/240V

players

and

630mA

for

100/1

10/120V

players.

Should

a

mains

fuse

fail,

SWITCH

OFF

THE

PLAYER

AND

DISCONNECT

IT

AT

THE

WALL

SOCKET.

The

fuse

always

remains

live

when

the

machine

is

plugged

into

the

mains.

Remove

the

top

plate

from

the

player

by

unscrewing

the

two

screws

at

the

top

of

the

rear

panel

using

a

No

1

‘Posidriv’

screwdriver.

Lift

the

top

plate

vertically

and

pull

it

backwards

slightly

to

release

it.

Fit

a

new

fuse

of

the

same

type

and

value

in

the

fuse

holder

close

to

the

mains

inlet.

You

should

find

a

spare

mains

fuse

in

the

spares

kit

provided

with

the

player

or,

alternatively,

fitted

inside

the

machine

close

to

the

mains

inlet.

If

the

new

fuse

fails

we

recommend

that

you

return

the

player

to

your

dealer

for

investigation

and

possible

repair.

Interaction

with

other

equipment

Although

the

transformers

used

in

the

Delta

CD

machines

have

a

low

and

well

controlled

level

of

magnetic

field

radiation

it is

possible

that

they

may

occasionally

interfere

with

nearby

sensitive

equipment,

such

as

the

cartridge

inputs

of

an

amplifier

or

the

replay

circuitry

of

a

cassette

recorder.

This

interference

normally

manifests

itseif

as

a

low

level

background

hum,

present

when

using

the

appropriate

equipment,

but

which

disappears

when

the

CD

machine

is

turned

off.

If

this

situation

occurs

and

is

annoying

it

can

be

eliminated

by

changing

the

relative

position

of

tne

interacting

items

or,

in

extreme

cases,

switching

off

the

CD

player

when

other

items

are

in

use.

[It

may

be

useful

to

know

that

the

transformers

in

the

Delta

70.2

and

Delta

170

are

located

to

the

right

of

the

unit).

A

CD

player

may

also

radiate

some

r.f.

(radio

frequency}

signals,

derived

from

its

digital

circuitry.

Although

within

statutory

limits

this

can

cause

interference

with

nearby

tuners

and

radios,

especially

on

the

AM

(Medium

and

Long)

wavebands.

To

solve

this

problem

move

the

aerial

of

the

tuner

or

radio

away

from

the

CD

player,

or

re-orient

it

for

minimum

interference

pickup.

In

extreme

cases

switch

off

the

CD

player

when

using

your

tuner

or

radio.

Disc

Maintenance

Treat

your

CDs

with

care.

If

you

always

pick

up

a

disc

by

its

edge

and

put

it

back

in

its

case

after

use,

cleaning

should

not

be

necessary.

Should

fingerprints,

dust

or

dirt

appear,

you

can

remove

them

with

a

soft,

lint

free

cloth,

wiping

the

disc

in

a

straight

line

from

centre

to

edge.

Breathe

on

the

disc

lightly

if

necessary

but

do

not

use

detergent,

abrasive

cleaning

agents

or

solutions

designed

for

use

on

records.

Never

write

on

the

disc

label;

this

can

cause

irreparable

damage

as

corrosive

components

present

in

inks

can

etch

their

way

through

and

destroy

the

information

layer

of

the

disc.

Player

Maintenance

Clean

the

cabinet,

when

necessary,

with

a

soft,

damp

cloth.

Do

not

use

cleaning

agents

containing

alcohol,

spirits,

ammonia

or

abrasives.

[For

stubborn

stains

or

fingermarks

we

have

found

the

careful

application

of

"Windolene'

to

be

particularly

effective).

Keep

the

disc

tray

free

of

dust.

With

the

exception

of

changing

a

fuse,

do

not

attempt

to

adjust

or

modify

anything

inside

the

player

—

this

will

void

your

warranty.

In

Case

of

Difficulty

Although

the

Arcam

Delta

CD

machines

have

been

manufactured

to

the

highest

standards,

the

possibility

remains

that

a

fauit

could

appear.

However

the

cause

of

a

problem

will

not

always

be

the

player

—

apparent

faults

can

arise

because

you

are

not

yet

fully

familiar

with

a

complex

new

product,

or

simply

from

faulty

discs.

There

follows

a

list

of

possible

faults

and

their

causes

(see

pages

10—11].

If

you

are

unable

to

solve

a

problem

after

following

our

guidelines,

stop

your

investigation,

disconnect

your

machine

from

the

mains

and

contact

your

dealer.

Audio

Outputs

Two

pairs

of

audio

outputs

to

your

amplifier

are

available

via

standard

RCA

type

phono

sockets,

marked

left

and

right.

A

pair

of

phono

to

phono

leads

should

be

used

to

connect

the

player

to

your

amplifier.

A

basic

cable

of

reasonable

sound

quality

has

been

provided

with

the

Delta

70.2

to

‘get

you

going’

(but

see

notes

on

connecting

cables

below).

The

average

output

level

of

both

audio

outputs

is

500mV

(2V

RMS

peak].

You

should

connect

the

Delta

70.2

output

to

the

CD

or

AUX

input

of

your

amplifier.

The

direct

outputs

on

the

Delta

70.2

offer

the

most

direct

path

from

the

internal

D/A

converter

circuitry

and

hence

give

the

best

sound

quality.

The

variable

outputs,

by

offering

a

remote

control

volume

facility,

give

convenient

armchair

command

over

a

useful

but

limited

range

of

21dB

with

only

a

slight

loss

in

audio

quality.

Note:

A

set

volume

level

will

be

lost

when

the

power

to

the

player

is

switched

off.

When

the

player

is

switched

on

again

the

volume

will

be

set

at

normal

full

output

level.

Any

other

required

listening

level

will

therefore

need

to

be

reset

using

the

remote

handset.

QO

REMOTE

YOU

OUT

OU!

Digital

Output

This

single

phono

socket

allows

the

Delta

70.2

user

to

reap

the

sonic

benefits

achieved

by

using

the

player

with

an

outboard

D/A

converter,

for

example

the

Delta

Black

Box,

or

perhaps

with

a

digital

pre-amplifier

or

amplifier

equipped

with

its

own

internal

DACs.

DO

NOT

connect

the

digital

output

of

the

Delta

70.2

to

the

conventional

inputs

of

any

audio

amplifier.

Connecting

Cables

With

high

quality

CD

sources,

such

as

the

Delta

70.2

and

Delta

170,

the

quality

of

the

cables

which

carry

the

analogue

signals

between

the

player

and

the

amplifier

becomes

of

paramount

importance.

Remember

a

hi-fi

system

is

only

as

good

as

the

weakest

link

in

the

chain!

We

strongly

recommend

that

only

first

class

interconnect

cables

be

used

with

your

hi-fi

system.

(Of

course

the

same

importance

should

also

be

attached

to

loudspeaker

cables].

We

have

found

interconnect

and

loudspeaker

cables

from

the

AudioQuest

LiveWire

range

to

be

particularly

suitable.

We

suggest

that

you

discuss

the

question

of

cables

with

your

dealer.

As

a

rule

of

thumb

you

might

budget

to

spend

between

596

and

2096

of

the

price

of

your

system

on

cable.

This

can

be

one

of

the

most

effective

upgrades

you

can

carry

out

on

your

system.

is

supplied

as

standard

with

the

Delta

to

be

used

with

equipment

possessing

the
