FEATURES OF THE AMC MODEL CD8b
TM
* The AMC model CD8b was designed to meet professional quality performance
standards and to provide superior value.
* Select grade components are utilized throughout the circuit design with special
emphasis on components within the audio path to assure stable, consistent performance.
* Premium transport and servo drive system assures constant data rate retrieval and
unsurpassed tracking performance.
* Use Burr Brown 96kHz/24bit D/A converter for high resolution and superb audio
reproduction.
* Unique 5-pole linear active LPF (low pass filter) prevents interference from ultrasonic
noise commonly found in other CD playback systems.
* Advanced power supply design incorporates separate windings for the digital, analog
and servo circuits to prevent interference and preserve sonic performance.
* EIA calibrated audio outputs ensure a proper match with preamplifiers and receivers.
* Provide digital output allow the CD8b to be used as a high-quality transport and provide
for future upgrades.
* Up to 21 tracks may be programmed to playback in desired order.
* Full-function infrared (IR) remote control with direct track access.
TRANSIT SCREW
A transit screw secures the
transport mechanism for protection
during shipment. Before making
any connections or applying power
to the CD6b, remove the transit
screw which is located on the
underside of the unit.

the memory mode, the CD8b has a "wraparound" function. If you back
repeatedly from track "00", the number
counts down from the final track of the disc.
This provides a convenient way to select
high-numbered tracks during
programming.
b) Press to store the selected
track in memory. The track number
will revert back to "00" and the time display
will advance to "P:02", showing the
player is ready for a second entry.
c) Repeat steps a and b, and
PROGRAM
track numbers in memory, up to a
maximum of 21 entries.
d) At any point during the program entry
process, the button on the player
can be pressed to display the total playing
time of the program.
e) To review programmed entries, press

antenna system isgrounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surgesand built up static charges.
Section 810 ofthe National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No.
70-1984, provides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of
the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit,size of grounding
conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to
grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding
electrode. See Figure.
a) Use No. 10 AWG (5.3 mm ) copper, No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm )
aluminum, No. 17 AWG (1.0 mm ) copper-clad steel or
22

bronze wire, orlarger, as a ground wire.
b) Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with
stand-off insulators spaced from 4-6 feet (1.22-1.83 m)
apart.
c) Mount antennadischarge unit as close aspossible to where
lead-in enters house.
d) Use jumper wire not smaller than No.6 AWG (13.3 mm )
