Main features
High quality amplifi er stressing sound quality
Equipped with a 30 W + 30 W (6 Ω) high-quality amplifi er circuits.
Direct Play for iPod® and iPhone® via USB
Music data from an iPod can be played back if you connect the
USB cable supplied with the iPod via the USB port of this unit, and
also an iPod can be controlled with the remote control for this unit.
Weight and Dramatic sound
The board and circuit confi guration has been redesigned to achieve
lower impedance. Since stable current is supplied to the power
amp and other sections, it is possible to realize as much as 30
watts of power.
“Simple & Straight” circuit design for sound
purity and free of coloration
DENON’s popular M series gives you high sound quality based on
the “simple & straight” concept. Circuitry is uncomplicated, signal
paths are short, and all adverse infl uences on sound quality have
been minimized.
Cautions on handling
• Before turning the power switch on
Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are
no problems with the connection cables.
• Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is
set to the standby mode. When going on vacation or leaving home
for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the
power outlet.
• Proper ventilation
If the unit is left in a room full of smoke from cigarettes, etc., for
long periods of time, the surface of the optical pickup may get dirty,
preventing it from receiving signals properly.
• About condensation
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of
the unit and its surroundings, condensation may form on parts inside
the unit, causing it to fail to operate properly.
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power
turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature
before using the unit.
• Cautions on using mobile phones
Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that
occurs, move the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.
• Moving the unit
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
Next, disconnect the cables connected to other system units before
moving the unit.
Playback of MP3 and WMA fi les
Supports playback of discs and USB memory devices on which
MP3 or WMA fi les are recorded. The unit’s display can display the
title of the track and the name of the artist of the current track.
Usable characters “Switching the display” (vpage18, 20)

• Discs in special shapes (heart-shaped discs, octagonal discs, etc.)
cannot be played. Do not attempt to play them, as doing so can
damage the unit.
• Some discs and some recording
formats cannot be played.
• Non-fi nalized discs cannot be

12 cm disc
8 cm disc
• “00 Tr 00 : 00” is displayed if a disc that cannot be played is loaded.
• “NO DISC” is displayed if the disc is loaded upside-down or if no
disc is loaded.
NOTE
Do not push the disc tray in by hand when the power is turned off.
Doing so could damage the set.
Cautions on loading discs
• Only load one disc at a time. Loading two or more discs can damage
the unit or scratch the discs.
• Do not use cracked or warped discs or discs that have been repaired
with adhesive, etc.
• Do not use discs on which the sticky part of cellophane tape or labels
is exposed or on which there are traces of where labels have been
removed. Such discs can get caught inside the player and damage it.
Cautions on handling
• Do not get fi ngerprints, oil or dirt on discs.
• Take special care not to scratch discs when removing them from
their cases.
• Do not bend or heat discs.
• Do not enlarge the hole in the center.
• Do not write on the labeled (printed) surface with ball-point pens,
pencils, etc., or stick new labels on discs.
• Water droplets may form on discs if they are moved suddenly from
a cold place (outdoors for example) to a warm place, but do not try to
dry them off using a hairdryer, etc.
Cautions on storing discs
• Be sure to remove discs after using them.
• Be sure to store discs in their cases to protect them from dust,
scratches, warping, etc.
• Do not store discs in the following places:
1. Places exposed to direct sunlight for long periods of time
2. Dusty or humid places
3. Places exposed to heat from heaters, etc.
ENGLISH
Cleaning discs
• If there are fi ngerprints or dirt on a disc, wipe them off before using
the disc. Fingerprints and dirt can impair sound quality and cause
interruptions in playback.
• Use a commercially available disc cleaning set or a soft cloth to clean
discs.
Gently wipe the disc from the
inside towards the outside.
Do not wipe in a circular motion.
NOTE
Do not use record spray, antistatic agents, benzene, thinner or other
solvents.

Basic connections
This section explains how to connect speakers, recording
equipment, and antennas.
For other connections, see the sections below.
n Control dock for iPod (vpage16)
n USB memory device (vpage16)
n iPod (vpage16)
NOTE
• Do not plug in the power cord until all connections have been
completed.
• When making connections, also refer to the owner’s manual of the
other components.
• Be sure to connect the left and right channels properly (left with left,
right with right).
• Do not bundle power supply cords together with connection cables.
Doing so can result in humming or noise.

Connecting the speaker cables
Carefully check the left (L) and right (R) channels and + (red) and –
(black) polarities on the speakers being connected to the unit, and be
sure to connect the channels and polarities correctly.
Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing
1
from the tip of the speaker cable, then
either twist the core wire tightly or
apply solder to it.
Turn the speaker terminal
2
counterclockwise to loosen it.
Insert the speaker cable’s core wire to
3
all the way into the speaker terminal.
Turn the speaker terminal clockwise
4
to tighten it.
NOTE
• Use speakers with an impedance of 6 to 16 Ω. The protection circuit
may be activated if speakers with an impedance other than specifi ed
are used.
• Connect the speaker cables so they do not stick out of the speaker
terminals. The protection circuit may be activated if the wires
touch the rear panel or if the + and – sides touch each other (v
“Protection circuit”).
• Never touch the speaker terminals while the power supply is
connected. Doing so could result in electric shock.
Protection circuit
The protection circuit is be activated in the following situations:
• If the speaker cable wire touches the rear panel or screws or if the
speaker cable wire touches the speaker cable’s + and – sides are
touching
• If the surrounding temperature is extremely high
• If the inside of the amplifi er gets hot to extended use at a high
output
If this happens, unplug the power cord, then check the connections
of the speaker cables and input cables. If the unit becomes very hot,
wait for it to cool off and improve the ventilation around it. After doing
this, plug the power cord back in.
If the protection circuit is activated even though there are no problems
with the ventilation around the unit or in connections, the unit may
be damaged. Turn off the power and then contact a DENON service

center.

NOTE
• Do not connect two FM antennas simultaneously.
• Even if an external AM antenna is used, do not disconnect the AM
loop antenna.
• Make sure the AM loop antenna lead terminals do not touch metal
parts of the panel.
• If you are unable to receive a good broadcast signal, we recommend
installing an outdoor antenna. Inquire at the retail store where you
purchased the unit for details.
