Important Note: Disc formats

Whilst every effort has been made to ensure universal compatibility with all approved disc types, it is impossible to guarantee full operation of every function of the Linn Classik Movie System with every disc that is on sale now or in the future. We have tested many of the disc types that are currently available but many discs that are on sale at this time do not conform to the published and accepted formal specifications. For this reason, we are unable to accept any responsibility for the player being unable to playback any particular disc. If you have discs that do not play on the Linn Classik Movie System, which are subsequently found to play on other brands of player, this does not imply that the Linn Classik Movie System is in any way at fault. There are many websites that display details of discs that have known playback problems and we suggest that you consult with this published data before you make any judgements regarding the Linn Classik Movie System’s playback abilities. We welcome the receipt of all suspect discs as this may assist us in ensuring that the Linn Classik Movie System continues to develop but cannot accept discs from end users on the basis that we have made any warranty about being able to learn how to play them.

Please consult the Linn end user website at www.linn.co.uk where you will be able to find links to some of the various sites that list suspect discs.

Novelty discs

Do not play irregularly shaped discs (heart-shaped, business card size etc) in the Classik Movie System as they may damage the unit.

Surround sound

The Classik Movie System is equipped with circuitry for processing the audio signal on discs marked with the following logos:

For details on the surround sound modes, see Surround sound modes in Playing Discs chapter.

Cleaning

Disconnect the Classik Movie System from the power supply before cleaning. Remove dust and fingerprints with a soft damp cloth. Avoid using domestic cleaning products on the unit.

Introduction

Connecting

Connecting

This chapter describes how to install your Classik Movie System and how to connect it to speakers, TV etc.

NOTE:

In the manual ‘TV’ refers to projection TVs and monitors as well as televisions.

Unpacking

handset with booklet

2 x R6 (AA) size batteries for the handset

AM aerial

FM aerial

mains lead

this manual

We recommend that you retain all packaging in case you need to transport the Classik Movie System at a later date.

Voltage selection

Do not connect the mains supply until you have verified that the Classik Movie System is set to the correct voltage for your mains supply.

The Classik Movie System is factory-set for a 240 volt mains supply and must not be connected to a mains supply other than this before it is adjusted for your local voltage. To set the voltage, use a screwdriver to adjust the voltage selector on the rear of the unit to the correct setting.

This appliance must be earthed. Use the earthed moulded mains lead supplied. Never use an unearthed plug or adapter.

Positioning

You can position your Classik Movie System almost anywhere you find convenient, but please consider the following points:

Allow at least 10cm of space to the sides, rear and above the Classik Movie System for air circulation.

Never block the ventilation holes on the top and sides of the unit.

The handset is sensitive. You should have no problems operating the Classik Movie System with the handset wherever it is placed in a room, provided you keep the Classik Movie System out of direct sunlight and you do not obscure the control window.

IMPORTANT:

Do not open the Classik Movie System’s disc drawer if the unit is behind glass doors as this can damage the drawer’s mechanism.

Handset modes

Pressing a source key (DVD, TUNER, TV or AUX) on the handset will put the handset into the mode of that source. The function of the handset keys varies for the different sources, so you may find that occasionally when using the handset the Classik Movie System does not respond as expected. This is because the handset and the unit are set to different sources. To correct this, simply press the key on the handset for the desired source.
