When using these high grade components, a considerable length of time is required for the

for 3 days in order to fully warm up its components.
Once again, thank you for including a MAGNUM DYNALAB product in your entertainment
system. We are sure that you will have years of listening pleasure from your MD 809T
Internet Media Tuner . Please be sure to register your product at

UNPACKING YOUR MD Tuner

Carefully inspect all sides of the shipping
carton for damage. If there are marks or
holes in the carton make note of the
location in relation to the unit inside. Any
obvious dents or scuff marks should alert
you to the possibility of damage. Carefully
remove the MD Internet Media Tuner
from the end caps and wrapping, inspect
all sides. Pay special attention to the
corresponding areas on the unit where
damage was found to the shipping carton.
If damage is evident, document the type
and extent of the damage, then repack the
unit and call the dealer.
KINDLY DO NOT SEND THE UNIT
BACK TO THE SHIPPER UNTIL YOU
HAVE BEEN ASKED TO DO SO.
DO NOT DISCARD THE PACKING
MATERIALS AND CARTONS. Should
there be a necessity to return the unit for
any reason, it must arrive safely and
suitably packaged in order for our receiver
to accept it from the carrier. If the unit has
incurred damage as a result of improper
packaging, it is not likely that a claim for
the damage against the carrier will be
successful.
Likewise, we will ship your unit back to
you only in factory-approved packaging,
however, if the unit were to arrive at the
factory on anything other than factory
approved packaging, we reserve the right
to return the unit in factory-approved
packaging and charge the cost of the
packaging to the shipper. This is the only
way we can assure you of a safe return
(damage by carrier excepted).

External resources
To operate the MD 809, the following
external resources are needed:

• a power source (100-240 V mains

supply),

• a wired (Ethernet) or wireless (Wi-

Fi) network (provided through a
router) with appropriate
permissions and password if
necessary (for Internet Tuner and
Network Music player modes),

• broadband Internet access (for

Internet Tuner mode and Internet
Software Update),

• a music library stored on the

network or on a USB mass storage
device (for Music player modes),

SETTING UP THE MD Internet

Media Tuner

1. Position the tuner away from any spot

which may have extremes in
temperatures.

2. Place the tuner on a very rigid surface

capable of holding 75 pounds (34 KG).

3. It is important that the tuner is not covered

and it is not installed in a closed area
where there is little air circulation. Ensure
at least 2” of clearance on the left and
right of the device, and 5” of clearance
above the unit to allow for proper
ventilation.

4. Connect the tuner to your preamplifier or

integrated amplifier using a set of cables
consistent with the caliber of your system.
Select the input you chose on your
preamplifier/Integrated. Note: Be sure

that the preamplifier volume is set to
zero.

5. If hardwiring your Internet Media Tuner ,

connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet
port, and the FM antenna cable to the RF
input, on the back of the unit.

6. Unwrap the EIA AC cord and plug the

EIA end into the rear socket marked
Power Input. Plug the other end of the AC
cord into a 120/220/230/240 volt
continuous AC power supply. Be sure that
the voltage marked on the rear of the unit
is the same as the AC source that you are
using.

** CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE UNIT
IS SET UP FOR THE PROPER
VOLTAGE **
(Check for unit’s voltage marked on rear
panel) then plug the tuner’s AC power
cord into an AC power source. Be sure to
use a continuous power source so as to
allow the stand-by mode feature to
function properly. The tuner’s audio
output is muted in the stand-by mode.
