OWNER'S MANUAL

CLASSÉ DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

1. REPEATED LISTENING DESIGN SESSIONS:

Fine tuning the sound by exchanging and mixing different parts (transistors, capacitors, wiring,

PCB boards etc.), and adjusting many specific operating voltages within proper engineering ranges, has

allowed us to produce an overall sonic recipe giving the most natural harmonic realism of music typical

of instruments in a live performance.

2. UPGRADABLE SINGLE CIRCUIT DESIGNS:

All Classé products share exactly the same circuit design philosophy. This means all amplifiers

and all high level circuits benefit from the same design goals. Similar circuits are then tailored to

different power levels etc. Differences between less expensive models and more expensive models are

parts quality and compliment, power supply extravagance and the amount of filtering etc., as well as

features and packaging.

This means that for years Classé has been constantly sonically fine tuning and technically upgrading this

circuit design and its application, thus reaching a very high level of natural musical enjoyment as well as

excellent reliability which benefits all models.

3. EXTREME LONG LIFE IN REAL WORLD CONDITIONS:

Choosing the best attainable quality parts and materials combined with the advantages of the two

above-mentioned areas provides Classé owners with years of proven trouble-free reliability and musical

enjoyment.

UNPACKING & SET-UP

1. UNPACKING AND ACCESSORIES:

The Classé CDP-1 has been carefully wrapped in heavy gauge plastic, packed in semi-rigid foam

and contained in a special box. To remove the unit, open and spread the top flaps of the box. By its

sides, lift the CDP-1 out along with its attached foam packing. Remove each foam side by pulling them

straight out. Remove the plastic wrap and inspect the unit for any concealed damage. Report any

concealed damage to your dealer promptly.

Apart from this owner's manual, please ensure the following is also included:

1) Detachable A.C. power cord.

2) Remote control handset (along with Allen key and two (2) type "AAA" batteries).

Please report any missing parts to your dealer promptly.

2. SETUP:

The CDP-1 CD player must be operated on a horizontal platform (see specifications for details)

such as a table or, preferably, specialized audio furniture to extract the best performance. Like fine

turntables and interconnect cables, the final location of the CDP-1 should be free of any hum-inducing

magnetic fields, such as those caused by power amplifiers, AC line filters and other regulation devices.

Such locations can introduce noise into an audio system, which inevitably degrades sound quality.

Ideally, a few feet should separate the CDP-1 from the power amplifier. As well, keep low-level

interconnect cables away from the power amp and separate from A.C. power cords. The CDP-1

generates negligible amounts of heat. Therefore, air space around the CDP-1 for ventilation need not be

a concern.

Important! Check the Serial Number sticker on the back of the unit for the correct operating voltage.

Regardless of the voltage, the fuse rating should be a 3/8 AMP SLO-BLO type.

A.C. LINE POWER

The ON/OFF switch on the CDP-1 is located on the rear panel of the unit right besides the A.C.

LINE CORD RECEPTACLE. Its low power consumption and improved sonics from always being ON

led to the addition of a STANDBY switch on the front panel. While thoroughly musical shortly after

turn-on, the CDP-1 will exhibit "sonic growth" for the first 300 hours of use.

For optimum sonic performance, you should consider use of the optional CLASSÉ REFERENCE A.C.

LINE CORD. Consult your dealer regarding this accessory.

CAUTION: "FLOATING THE GROUND” OR DEFEATING THE GROUND ON A 3-PRONG

LINE CORD MAY CREATE A SHOCK HAZARD. CONNECT ALL INTERCONNECT CABLES

BETWEEN THE ELECTRONICS BEFORE CONNECTING THE A.C. LINE CORDS TO THE

WALL OUTLETS. THIS WILL REDUCE THE POTENTIAL SHOCK HAZARD. IN ADDITION

PLEASE READ THE WARRANTY SECTION OF THIS OWNER'S MANUAL.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS AND FUNCTIONS

The CDP-1 compact disk player is equipped with both BALANCED and REGULAR RCA

(single ended) analog outputs. Connecting the CDP-1 to your audio system requires a pair of

BALANCED or REGULAR RCA type interconnects and the supplied AC power cord. The CDP-1 is

also equipped with a BALANCED (AES/EBU) data output connector. To use this output, you require a

balanced cable and an AES/EBU input connector on your digital processor. Refer to Fig. 1 on page 10

for visual aid.

A NOTE ABOUT THE CONNECTING CABLES:

The overall performance of the CD PLAYER will vary dramatically with the quality and type of

cables chosen. Selection of the highest quality digital output cables combined with proper output

interconnects is recommended for maximum performance of the Classé CDP-1.

AC LINE INPUT

In addition to the analog and digital outputs, the remaining connection on the rear panel of the

CDP-1 is the AC input connector. Connect the supplied AC power cord to this input. As the

CAUTION section on the previous page indicates, it is always a wise PRECAUTION to connect all

interconnect cables before attaching the AC power cords.

DISPLAY, FUNCTIONS AND OPERATIONS

1. FUNCTIONS:

The front panel of the CDP-1 has six buttons that perform all the basic necessary functions. The

remote control contains all the basic functions found on the front panel (except the LOAD button) as

well as all advanced programming features.

Using Figure 1 on page 10, the front panel controls are (from left to right):

LOAD: Press this button once to open the disk tray. Pressing it again will close the tray.

STOP: Stops playing the disk, and also clears all programs in memory.

PREVIOUS (½): Pressed once during playback, the CDP-1 will start playing the previous track.

Pressing it sequentially will cause the CDP-1 to go back one track each time it is pressed. This button is

also used to select tracks to play and program into memory.

PLAY/PAUSE: Press this button to start playback. Pressing it again will pause the music until it is

pressed once more.

NEXT (¾): Each time this button is pressed, the CDP-1 will advance one track i.e. press it twice to

advance two tracks, three for three tracks, etc. If pressed during playback, the CDP-1 resumes playing

from the desired track. If pressed while stopped, the CDP-1 will await further commands.

STANDBY: This is the "power switch" of the CDP-1. Press it to turn the CDP-1 on and off.

In addition to all the above functions, the remote handset of the CDP-1 contains the following additional

functions (see Fig.2 on page 11):

NUMERIC KEYPAD (digits 0 through 9): This is a convenient alternative to the PREVIOUS and

NEXT buttons. Pressing the desired track number on the numeric keypad is usually faster than the

PREVIOUS and NEXT buttons. For example, if you just inserted a disk and wish to play track 8,

pressing 8 followed by PLAY is easier than pressing the NEXT button eight times, and then PLAY.

REPEAT: Repeats the whole disk, the programmed tracks or just the single track being heard.

SCAN: Plays the first ten seconds of each track.

SHUFFLE: Plays all tracks on a disk in random order.

STORE: Stores selected tracks into memory for playback.

FORWARD (») AND REVERSE («) SEARCH: The CDP-1 employs a convenient 2-speed search.

These buttons allow you to quickly search through the disk in both directions. Press and hold down the

desired SEARCH button. The time counter will approximately double in speed, and the track heard will

be reduced in volume. Once the desired point is reached, release the SEARCH button. Playback will

resume.

If the SEARCH button is held for more than 4 seconds, the CDP-1 goes into a high-speed search mode,

and the time counter advances very rapidly. During high-speed search, the volume is completely muted.

2. DISPLAY INFORMATION AND VARIOUS MODES OF OPERATION:

To insert a disk, press LOAD to open the CD tray. Gently place the disk with the label side up

on the tray, and press LOAD again. The tray will close, and several seconds later the display will

indicate the total number of tracks on the disk with the total playing time. If the disk has not been

properly inserted, or is inserted upside down, the message NO DISC will appear on the display. Disks

with bad scratches, pinholes, or other severe manufacturing defects might also not be useable.

Once the display confirms the number of tracks and playing time, the CDP-1 is in STOP mode. At this

point, you can carry out several different playback modes. Each is described in detail below.

Playback from the beginning or from a selected track

To play an entire disk from the beginning, press PLAY. The CDP-1 will start playing in a few

seconds, and will play the entire disk. To play from a desired track onwards, select the desired track

using the NEXT (¾) and/or PREVIOUS (½) buttons, or with the numeric keypad on the remote control.

Then press PLAY. The disk will play from that point on until the end of the disk. While playing, the

display will show each track currently playing along with the elapsed time from the beginning of that

track. Once the disk is over, the CDP-1 will return to STOP mode.

Playback of only selected tracks

You can program the CDP-1 to play any combination of tracks on a disk, up to a maximum of

20. Using the NEXT (¾) and PREVIOUS (½) buttons, or the numeric keypad, find the first desired

track on the display. Then press the STORE button. Repeat this procedure until all desired tracks have

been stored. As each track is being stored, the display indicates the total playing time of all tracks

currently programmed. Press PLAY. Playback will commence from the first programmed track, and all

programmed tracks will play in the order they were stored. Please note that:

- If you try to program more than 20 tracks, the display will indicate FULL, and no more tracks

will be entered into memory.

- Each track can only be programmed once.

- During programmed playback, the numeric keypad is disabled; use NEXT and PREVIOUS to

change tracks.

- The programmed tracks don't have to be in ascending numerical order; i.e. you can program

track 2 to play after track 6.

- If you programmed a track by accident, simply go to that track once more and press STORE

again. That track will be deleted from memory.

- To clear all the tracks programmed in memory, press the STOP button twice if the CDP-1 is

already playing, or once if it is not. If you intend on changing the disk, simply opening the disk

tray automatically erases all programmed tracks from memory.

Playback using REPEAT

Pressing the REPEAT button sequentially toggles between three different functions: Repeating

the entire disk, repeating the track currently being played or indicated on the display, or not repeating at

all. In each case, the display indicates which mode is selected (REPEAT, REPEAT 1, or a nothing at

all). Once the desired mode of repeat is chosen, press PLAY.

The REPEAT feature can also be used with tracks programmed in memory in the same way as above.

Playback using SHUFFLE

Also known as Random Play, pressing the SHUFFLE button instructs the CDP-1 to play all

tracks in a random order. Once all tracks have been played, the CDP-1 will return to STOP mode.

While in SHUFFLE play, the display will indicate SHUFFLE. After pressing SHUFFLE, you do not

need to press PLAY.

The SHUFFLE feature can be used in conjunction with the REPEAT button to provide endless hours of

randomly selected, uninterrupted music.

Playback using SCAN

This is a handy feature that lets you "preview" the contents of a disk. By pressing SCAN, the

CDP-1 will automatically play the first 10 seconds of each track on the disk. Once you've found a track

you like, pressing SCAN again will disable the SCAN feature and play the entire track currently being

heard.

3. ERROR REPORTING:

The CDP-1 will report any erroneous operation via an "ERR" message on the display. For

example, trying to program a disk while it is playing, or trying to play or program a track number non-

existent on a disk (i.e. track 12 on a disk with 10 tracks) will trigger the error message. The "FULL"

error message only appears when the user attempts to store more than twenty tracks into memory.
