Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this Cambridge Audio Azur Blu-ray Player. Like
all Cambridge Audio products, our Blu-ray players adhere to our three
core principles – stunning performance, ease of use and incredible
value.
The 651BD/751BD both features almost universal disc compatibility and
can play back CD, HDCD, DVD-Video, DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD and BluRay discs including those with 3D content. 24/192kHz Digital to Analogue
converters and our usual careful audio design ensure that the
651BD/751BD can reproduce the dynamics and scale required for
modern movie soundtracks whilst also being able to reproduce a
genuinely musical performance with either stereo or multi-channel music
discs.
A full range of HDMI, digital and analogue outputs are fitted. These allow
the connection of suitably equipped TVs and AV receivers.
Twin HDMI outputs allow two screens or a screen and a projector to be
connected at the same time. Both are fully compatible with the HDMI 1.4
standard for 3D TV and deepcolour support.
The primary output also features a Marvell QDEO scaler with motion
adaptive noise reduction and a host of technologies to further improve
the picture quality for this output.
An Ethernet connection is provided for BD Live and other interactive
features via the internet. Additionally the 751BD is supplied with a USB
Wi-Fi dongle.
The latest surround-sound formats are supported including decoding of
Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS-HD High
Resolution Audio in Stereo, 5.1 or 7.1 variants. In particular support for
the true lossless Dolby True HD and DTS HD Master Audio formats
provides unprecedented audio fidelity from Blu-ray discs.
The 651BD/751BD is also capable of outputting all of these formats as
bitstreams over HDMI for decoding in a suitable AV Receiver.
Both models use 24/192kHz Digital to Analogue converters. The 651BD
features a Cirrus Logic CS4382A 8 Channel multi-dac to create its 7.1
analog output (which can be set to Stereo mode also).
The 751BD instead uses five WM8740 stereo DACs from Wolfson
Microelectronics and features both a permanent 7.1 and a separate
Stereo output. For the 751BD all analog outputs are also up-sampled via
an Analog Devices DSP running our proprietary Q5 Upsampling and jitter
suppression algorithm from Anagram Technologies to 24 bits and
192kHz.
Both models feature an environmentally friendly low power (1W) standby
circuit.
All this proprietary engineering is housed within our low resonance,
acoustically damped chassis. An Azur Navigator remote control is also
provided, giving full remote control of your Blu-ray player and if required
a Cambridge Audio amplifier or AV receiver in an attractive and easy to
use handset.
Remember your 651BD/751BD can only be as good as the system it is
connected to. Please do not compromise on your AV receiver or speaker
package and always use good quality video and audio cabling. Naturally
we particularly recommend AV receivers such as those from the
Cambridge Audio Azur range, which has been designed to the same
exacting standards as this product. Your dealer can also supply excellent
quality Cambridge Audio interconnects to ensure your system realises its
full potential.
Thank you for taking the time to read this manual; we recommend you
keep it for future reference.

Plug-fitting Instructions (UK only)
The cord supplied with this appliance is factory-fitted with a UK mains plug fitted with
a 3-amp fuse inside. If it is necessar y to change the fuse, it is important that a
3-amp fuse is used. If the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for
your socket, or becomes damaged, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug
fitted following the wiring instructions below. The plug must then be disposed of
safely, as insertion into a mains socket is likely to cause an electrical hazard. Should
it be necessary to fit a 3-pin BS mains plug to the power cord, the wires should be
fitted as shown in this diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of this
appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals
in your plug. Connect them as follows:
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be
connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter ‘N’ or coloured BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be
connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter ‘L’ or coloured RED.
The wire which is coloured GREEN/YELLOW must
be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter ‘E’ or coloured GREEN.
If a standard 13-amp (BS 1363) plug is used, a 3-amp fuse must be fitted or, if any
other type of plug is used, a 3-amp or 5-amp fuse must be fitted, either in the plug
or adaptor, or on the distribution board.

Discs that cannot be played
• BDs with cartridge
• DVD-RAMs
• HD DVDs
• Data portion of CD-Extras
• BD-Video/DVD-Video with a different region code to the Blu-ray player
you have purchased.
• Some DualDiscs: A DualDisc is a two sided disc with DVD on one side
and digital audio on the other side. The digital audio side does not
generally meet the technical specifications of the Compact Disc Digital
Audio (CD-DA) format so playback is not guaranteed.
• Music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies: among
such discs, some again do not conform to the CD standard so playback
is not guaranteed.
• To keep the disc clean from scratches or fingerprints, handle the disc
by its edge. Do not touch the recording surface.
• Blu-ray Discs record data in very high density and the record layer is
very close to the disc surface. For this reason, Blu-ray Discs are more
sensitive to dust and fingerprints than DVD. Should you encounter
playback problems and see dirty spots on the disc surface, clean the
disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the centre out along the
radial direction. Do not wipe the disc in a circular motion.
• Do not use record cleaning sprays or solvents such as benzene, thinner
and anti-static spray.
• Do not attach labels or stickers to discs as this may cause the disc to
warp, become imbalanced or too thick, resulting in playback problems.
• Avoid exposing the discs to direct sunlight or heat sources.
• Do not use the following discs:
– Discs with exposed adhesive from removed stickers or labels. The
disc may get stuck inside the player.
– Warped or cracked discs.
– Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart or business card shapes.
Since the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, some discs
may not play properly depending on the disc type, version and encoding.
It is possible that a Blu-ray disc manufactured after the player was
manufactured uses certain new features of the Blu-ray Disc
specifications. To ensure the best possible viewing experience, the player
may need a firmware or software update from time to time.

Connecting to the Internet
Ethernet connection
The 651/751BD supports the BD-Live feature offered on some Blu-ray
Disc titles. BD-Live offers extra downloadable content and additional
online interactive programs. The available BD-Live content varies by discs
and studios, and may include additional subtitles, commentaries, movie
trailers, games, and/or online chat.
Connecting the player to the Internet will also allow the player to obtain
firmware updates via the Internet.
In order to utilize the BD-Live feature or update firmware via the Internet,
the player needs to be connected to a broadband Internet connection. It
is not necessary to connect to the Internet if you do not intend to use the
BD-Live and online firmware updating functionality.
• Plug one end of a network cable (Categor y 5/5E straight through
Ethernet cable) into the LAN port on the back of the unit.
• Plug the other end of the network cable into a LAN port on your
broadband router or modem.
• Some network configuration may be required. Please refer to the
Network Setup section of the manual for more details.
• Refer to the operating instructions supplied with the broadband router
or modem, or contact the Internet service provider for questions related
to setting up of a router or modem.
Note:
Only connect the LAN port of the player to an Ethernet port that
supports 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. Connecting to any other ports or
jacks, such as a phone jack, can damage the player.
Using the wireless adaptor (751BD only)
The wireless adaptor included with the 751BD has been pre-configured
to work with your player. Other wireless adaptors will not work.
A USB extension cable is provided with your 751BD. This can be used if
desired to move the wireless dongle to a more convenient location.
• Make sure the broadband Internet connection is available and the
Wi-Fi function on your wireless router or access point has been turned
on, and plug the adaptor into the rear USB 2.0 port of your 751BD.
• After connecting the adaptor, some network configuration is required.
Please refer to the ‘Network Setup’ section of this manual.

Separate analogue stereo (751BD only)
The analogue stereo outputs should be used for play back of CDs, DVDs
etc in stereo through a conventional amplifier or AV receiver with analogue
stereo inputs.
Analogue stereo is also usually the best connection method for listening
to CDs and other stereo discs for best possible sound quality. It is often
a good idea to connect both the analogue stereo outputs (for CD
playback) and digital audio outputs or HDMI (for surround sound
decoding) at the same time.
To connect an analogue stereo system to the 751BD, use stereo phono
cables (stereo 2RCA-2RCA).
Digital audio
The digital audio outputs should be used to decode the surround-sound
soundtracks of BD/DVDs with an external AV Receiver (Note: Digital output
must be set to
"RAW" in the Audio setup page). The 651/751BD sends an
undecoded audio bitstream to the AV Receiver for decoding into 5.1/7.1 etc.
Note: The latest HD audio types, SACD and DVD-A cannot
be output over
SPDIF/TOSlink and an HDMI connection must be used for these.
Either a 75ohm co-axial cable designed for digital audio or a TOSlink fibre
optic cable should be used (only one at a time).
Note:
It is also possible to output stereo digital audio from the Digital
Outputs for recording on conventional CD-R/MD etc. machines, see
section on 651/751BD setup.
Audio connections
Do not plug in the mains power lead or turn the unit on until all
connections have been made.
Three types (two for 651BD) of audio only connection can be made
between the 751BD and your stereo/AV system:

5.1/7.1 analogue

The 651/751BD is also capable of decoding Surround-Sound
soundtracks itself and outputting these as analogue Stereo, 5.1 or 7.1
depending on the settings in the Speaker setup page in the 651/751BD
setup menu.
For 5.1, connect to an AV receiver or amplified speaker system, use 6 x
phono/RCA cables.
For 7.1, connect to an AV receiver or amplified speaker system, use 8 x
phono/RCA cables.
Note: It is also possible to make an HDMI audio/video connection which
carries both audio and video in the same cable. See later section.
However, when making an HDMI connection i.e. to an AV receiver, it is
also often preferable to make an additional audio connection for CD
and/or SACD/DVD-A playback.
