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.

THE CDP-1.5 IS NOT TO BE OPERATED WITH THE COVER OPENED.

THERE IS INVISIBLE LASER RADIATION WHEN THE COVER IS OPENED.

AVOID DIRECT EXPOSURE TO THE LASER BEAM.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. WATER AND MOISTURE: This product should not be used near water. To prevent fire or

shock hazard, do not expose this product to rain or moisture.

2. HEAT: This product should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat

registers, stoves, or other appliances which produces heat.

3. POWER SOURCES: This product should be connected to an AC power source of the proper

rated voltage. The original shipping container and the serial number tag at the back of the unit

will stipulate the AC voltage from which this unit can operate correctly.

4. SERVICING: Do not open this unit for any reason. No user serviceable parts inside. Refer

servicing to an authorized service technician.

5. NON-USE PERIODS: The power cord of this unit should be unplugged from the AC outlet

when left unused for an extended period of time.

6. DO NOT REMOVE THE TOP COVER while the unit is ‘on’ or connected to an AC outlet, there

is a SHOCK HAZARD, also, foreign objects could fall in the unit and cause severe damage to

internal components, the player may also leak invisible laser radiation. AVOID DIRECT

EXPOSURE TO THE BEAM.

1. UNPACKING AND ACCESSORIES:

The Classé CDP-1.5 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-1.5 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 two (2) type "AAA" batteries).

Please report any missing parts to your dealer promptly.

2. SETUP:

The CDP-1.5 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-1.5 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-1.5 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-1.5

generates negligible amounts of heat. Therefore, air space around the CDP-1.5 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.

.C. LINE POWER

The ON/OFF (POWER) switch on the CDP-1.5 is located on the front panel of the unit, at the

left, besides the CD drawer. While thoroughly musical shortly after turn-on, the CDP-1.5 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-1.5 compact disk player is equipped with both BALANCED and REGULAR RCA

(single ended) analog outputs. Connecting the CDP-1.5 to your audio system requires a pair of

BALANCED or REGULAR RCA type interconnects and the supplied AC power cord. The CDP-1.5 is

also equipped with a SINGLE ENDED (S/PDIF) and BALANCED (AES/EBU) data output connector.

To use theses outputs, you require a SINGLE-ENDED (REGULAR) DIGITAL or a BALANCED

digital cable as well as an S/PDIF input connector or an AES/EBU input on your digital processor.

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-1.5.

AC LINE INPUT

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

CDP-1.5 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-1.5 has eight buttons that perform all the basic necessary functions.

The remote control contains all the basic functions found on the front panel (except the LOAD and

POWER buttons) as well as all advanced programming features.

POWER: Press this button to turn the unit ON or OFF.

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

PREVIOUS(½): Pressed once during playback, the CDP-1.5 will start playing the previous track.

Pressing it sequentially will cause the CDP-1.5 to go back one track each time it is pressed. This button

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

NEXT(¾): Each time this button is pressed, the CDP-1.5 will advance one track i.e. press it twice to

advance two tracks, three for three tracks, etc. If pressed during playback, the CDP-1.5 resumes playing

from the desired track. If pressed while stopped, the CDP-1.5 will await further commands.

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

pressed once more.

FORWARD(») AND REVERSE(«) SEARCH: The CDP-1.5 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-1.5 goes into a high-speed search

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

muted.

In addition to all the above functions, the remote handset of the CDP-1.5 contains the following

additional functions.

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.

STORE: Stores selected tracks into memory for playback.

CLEAR: Will clear the last track entered into memory.

DISPLAY: When pressed once, the display will count backwards giving the total remaining time on the

disc or the programmed tracks. If pressed once more, the display will count upwards the total time on

the disc or the programmed tracks. If pressed once again, the display will return to its normal function.

NOTE: There is no variable output on the CDP-1.5.

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, ZERO’s (0 0 00) 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-1.5 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-1.5 will start playing in a few

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

2. DISPLAY INFORMATION AND VARIOUS MODES OF OPERATION: (Continued)

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-1.5 will return to STOP mode.

Playback of only selected tracks

You can program the CDP-1.5 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, no more tracks will be entered into memory.

- 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 press CLEAR, that track will be deleted from

memory.

- To clear all the tracks programmed in memory, press the STOP button twice if the CDP-1.5 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 will have the unit repeating the entire disk.. Once the REPEAT

mode is chosen, press PLAY.

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