INTRODUCTION
PRODUCT FEATURES
This unit can playback the outstanding sound performance in
Super Audio CD. This unit has the following unique features.
• Low-noise low-distortion filter circuit and high-speed
current-feedback-type output amplifier with the differential
input type HDAM.
• Text information display function that can display disc titles,
track titles etc. in Super Audio CD.
• CD-R/CD-RW discs can be played.
ABOUT SUPER AUDIO
The Super Audio standard is based on Direct Stream Digital
(DSD) technology. This new direct-stream digital format
comprises a 1-bit system that has a digital sampling frequency
that is 64 times higher than that of conventional audio CD. The
results are spectacular: a frequency response of over 100k
Hz and a 120 dB dynamic range over the entire audible
spectrum. Mixed with as many of the original frequencies as
possible, the audio information audible for human ears sounds
much more natural.
All audible frequencies are, after all, embedded in the frequency
range as emitted by the sound source. A better reproduction
does not exist! For the first time your ears will relive reality.
PLAYING CD-RW DISCS
This unit can play back the CD-RW (ReWritable) discs as well
as ordinary Audio CD and CD-R (Recordable) discs.
• The CD-R and CD-RW discs should contain properlyrecorded TOC information so that they can be played back.
In CD recorders, the task of writing TOC information is
referred to as finalizing the disc. Discs that are not finalized
cannot be properly recognized as an Audio CD and played
back by regular CD players and Super Audio CD players.
For details, please read the instruction manual provided
with a CD recorder.
* TOC stands for Table Of Contents and contains
information such as the total number of tracks and total
playing time of the disc.
• This unit can play only the discs recorded in the CD-DA
format designed for music reproduction. Do not attempt to
play a disc containing other data, such as a CD-ROM for
PCs, on this unit.
• As the playback of a CD-RW disc necessitates partial
change of the player setup, it may take longer time for
reading the TOC information than when an Audio CD or
CD-R disc is played.
APPLICABLE DISCS TO THE UNIT

BEFORE USING
NOTES ABOUT THE DISCS
* Handle the discs carefully so as not to scratch their
surfaces.
* Keep the surfaces of the discs clean at all times.
When cleaning the surfaces of discs, always be sure to use
the special cleaner and wipe the surfaces in the directions
shown in the figure below.
• Wipe the surface radially
from the center.
* Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to the label
surfaces of the discs.
When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental CD label
with paste protruding from the edge or when a disc still bears
traces of sticky tape or adhesive labels, do not attempt to
play it. If such a disc is played on the CD player, you may
find that you cannot remove it or that some other kind of
malfunctioning may occur.
• Do not wipe the surface in
the circumferential direction.
INAPPROPRIATE PLACES FOR
INSTALLATION
To keep your player in perfect working order for the longest
possible time, avoid installing the player in the following
locations.
• Wherever it will be exposed to direct sunlight
• Wherever it will be close to a heater or other heat-radiating
appliance
• Wherever the humidity is high or ventilation is poor
• Wherever it is very dusty
• Wherever it will be subject to vibration
• On top of a rickety stand or in an unstable location which is
tilted at an angle
• In an audio rack with little space at the top and bottom or
other location where the heat dissipation will be obstructed
To ensure proper heat dissipation, install the player while
leaving clearances between the player and wall or other
components, as shown in the figure below.
• On top of an amplifier or other component which dissipates
a great deal of heat
* The quality of the laser and other components can be
harmed if the player is placed directly on top of an
amplifier or other device which generates heat.
10 cm or more
10 cm or more
10 cm or more
* Do not use discs which come in special shapes.
Do not attempt to play heart-shaped or octagonal discs or
discs with any other special shapes. You may find that you
cannot remove them or that some other kind of malfunctioning
may occur in the player.
* Use discs which satisfy the CD standards such as those
with the “CD logo” or “
” mark on their disc label
surfaces.
No guarantees are made for playback if discs which do not
satisfy the appropriate CD standards are used.
Similarly, no guarantees are made for their sound quality even
if it is possible to play such discs.
* To protect your discs from damage, avoid placing them
in the following locations.
• Where they will be exposed to direct sunlight or where they
will be close to a heater or other heat-radiating appliance
• Where the humidity level is high or it is very dusty
• Near a window or other such location where they may be
exposed to rain
* Get into the habit of putting the discs back in their cases
after use.

10 cm or more
7
Do not place objects on top
• Refrain from placing any objects on top of the player.
7 Cautions on handling power cord
• Do not touch the power cord with wet hands.
• When disconnecting the power cord, always make sure
that you take hold of the plug. Yanking out or bending the
cord can damage it and/or cause electric shocks or a fire.
• Get into the habit of disconnecting the power plug before
leaving home.
7 Do not attempt repairs yourself
• Refrain from lubricating the player: doing so can cause
malfunctioning.
• Only qualified engineers with specialized expertise are
authorized to repair the pick-up and parts inside the player.
BEFORE USING
PRECAUTIONS
• In winter, droplets of water form on the insides of the
windows of a heated room: this is called condensation. This
player uses an optical lens, so the condensation may form
in the following cases.
- In a room immediately after the heating has been turned
on
- In a room where the humidity level is high
- When the player has been suddenly brought from a cold
location into a warm room
Since, in cases like this, the track numbers may not be
read and the player is prevented from operating properly,
wait about 30 minutes, and then operate the player.
• This player may cause interference on a tuner or TV set. If
this is the case, place it further away from the tuner or TV
set.
• Compact discs have much less noise than analog records
and hardly any noise is heard before play starts. Bear in
mind, therefore, that if the volume control on the amplifier
is set too high, you will risk damaging other audio
components.
• This player is designed to play Super Audio CD and normal
Audio CDs only. It cannot play CD-ROMs used with
personal computers, game CDs, video CDs or DVDs (video/
audio).
• We do not recommend the use of lens cleaners.
LOADING BATTERIES
Batteries in this remote control unit have a life of approximately
1 year under normal operating conditions. If the remote control
unit is not going to be used for an extended period of time,
remove the batteries. Also, if you notice that the batteries are
starting to run down, replace them as soon as possible.
q Remove the battery cover.
w Insert the batteries with correct +/– orientation.
Two AAA-size (R03) batteries
e Close the battery cover until it clicks shut.
ENGLISH
USING REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
Cautions on handling batteries
Misuse of the batteries can result in electrolyte leakage,

* In the case of a CD-R or CD-RW disc, this problem may
occur when the conditions under which its data was originally
written were substandard or when the quality of the disc itself
is poor.
* This condition may occur in Mixed-Mode CDs, CD Extra,
and other discs that have CDDA format mixed with other data.
Noise may also be heard momentarily when skipping tracks.
• Remote control operation is not possible.
1. Is the transmitter of the remote control unit (RC-11SAS1)
pointed correctly at the remote sensor on the front of the
player (this unit)?
Or is there an obstruction between the transmitter and the
remote sensor?
2. Are the batteries in the remote control unit exhausted?

• A CD-R/CD-RW disc cannot be played.
1. Is the disc placed upside down?
2. Is the disc contains properly written TOC?

• A specific CD cannot be played
Copy control CDs (CDs with copy guard) are special discs
that do not comply with current CD standards. Marantz
cannot guarantee the ability to play such discs on your CD
player.
When normal CDs can be played without a problem and
problems occur only when playing these special discs, it is
not a problem with this unit.
Please ask the seller of the copy control CD for detailed
information regarding copy control CDs.
• The unit makes a clicking sound when the tray closes
This is the adhesion click of the clamper for securing the
disc. This does not cause any problem in using the unit.
• While the disc is spinning, a spinning sound is heard
or a slight vibration occur.
Depending on the disc, a spinning sound may occur or the
unit may vibrate slightly due to disc eccentricity or such.
This is not a problem with this unit.
