introduction
The Myryad MCD 200 and 600 Compact
Disc Players have been designed to offer
a combination of high quality sound
reproduction and elegant styling in keeping
with other Myryad products. Both models
operate in exactly the same way, but the
MCD 600 has more advanced internal
circuitry resulting in greatly improved sound
quality. For simplicity this manual refers only
to the MCD 600 but all sections apply equally
to the MCD 200 – with the sole exception of
the Specifications which are given separately
for each model.
The MCD 600 is a full-function remotecontrolled CD player. It has fixed-level
low-impedance audio outputs to drive
a Myryad integrated amplifier or preamplifier – or other high quality amplifier.
In addition the MCD 600 has a digital
output on a single RCA phono socket
(SPDIF standard), suitable for driving
a separate DAC (Digital-to-AnalogueConverter), and a ‘Smart My-Link’
control input and output.
The MCD 600 offers a range of expansion
possibilities:
• The digital output can be used to feed
a separate DAC or digital recorder.
• The My-Link input can be connected
to a Myryad integrated amplifier or
pre-amplifier so that the MCD 600 will
automatically be switched on or off when
the amplifier is switched on or off.
• The My-Link input/output can be coupled
to other Myryad products that can then
be remote-controlled via the MCD 600’s
infra-red receiver – or vice-versa.
•When linked via the ‘Smart My-Link’ to
a compatible Myryad integrated amplifier
or preamplifier a number of extra features
become available which make the system
as a whole easier and quicker to operate.

still requires some ventilation. Do not place
it on a rug or other soft surface into which
it could sink, obstructing the air inlets in its
underside. Do not allow any obstruction to
the ventilation slots in the rear panel. The
CD player should not be installed in a builtin situation such as a bookcase or rack unless
proper ventilation is provided.
