Introduction

Thank you for your purchase of the Balanced Audio Technology VK-D5 CD player.
Please read this owner's manual to obtain the full benefit of the VK-D5 in your system. It will
provide you with the needed safety information and operating procedures for this exceptional
unit.

WARNINGS:

To prevent the possibility of serious injury, electrical shock or fire:

DO NOT operate with the cover removed.

DO NOT expose to rain or moisture.

DO NOT defeat the ground power-plug.

DO NOT replace fuse with anything other than the same type and rating as supplied by the factory.

Package Contents

Included in the box should be the following:

Description Quantity

VK-D5 CD Player 1
Power Cord 1
Spare Fuses 2
Torx Wrench (T-10) 1
Spare Top Cover Screws 5
User’s Manual 1
VK-R2 Remote Control 1

Save all the packaging material in a safe dry area for the unlikely event that you
need to return the VK-D5 to the factory for service.

Reseating Tubes

Normally, reseating tubes upon delivery is not required. However, if any tubes have
noticeably drifted out of position due to high transportation stress, it will be advisable to
reseat the tubes. Use the supplied Torx wrench to remove the top cover. Reseat the tubes
in their sockets and reinstall the top cover.

NOTE: When using the Torx wrench, make sure it is fully inserted so that the screw head
is not stripped.

Physical Placement

It is recommended that you provide for at least 6" of free space around the unit for proper
ventilation.

Mount the unit on a hard surface with proper ventilation underneath.

Do not stack the VK-D5 CD player on top of other units, nor vice versa.

Connecting the VK-D5 to Your System

Balanced Components

Use balanced XLR interconnects. All input and output connectors are clearly marked on the
back panel.

Note: The VK-D5 XLR connectors are wired as follows:

Pin 1: common/shield
Pin 2: positive
Pin 3: negative

Single-Ended Components

Single-ended components have RCA connectors. The VK-D5 CD player allows
direct connection to a single-ended preamplifier using the back-panel mounted RCA jacks.
