Unpacking

Aer unpacking your Cantata Music Center, inspect it for any shipping damage and contact us immediately if any
is found. Do not plug the unit into any outlet if you discover any shipping damage.

Please keep all packing materials for future transport of your player, and please do not detach the foam from the
inside of the shipping crate. e crate is designed for easy reuse should it be needed and is well-tested to ensure
the safety of your player. Shipping the unit in anything other than its original crate may result in damage that is
not covered by warranty. If you require a replacement crate or other packing materials, please contact Resolution
Audio.

In addition to the Music Center, the following items are also included: mains power cord, remote control, and
(2) AAA baeries for the remote control. To install the baeries in the remote control, open the cover on the
back of the remote, insert the baeries in the orientation shown inside the compartment, and replace the cover.

Installation

1. Turn o any associated components prior to connecting the Cantata Music Center. is minimizes the

chance of momentary electrical surges disturbing your system.

2. Set the power switch on the rear of the unit to the OFF position, aach the power cord and connect it to your

electrical outlet. (e OFF position is selected when the “O” symbol on the switch is depressed.)

3. Connect the analog outputs of the Cantata Music Center to your preamplier or amplier. e Cantata Music

Center is designed to connect to any preamplier or amplier directly using RCA or XLR interconnects.

4. Turn on the main power switch on the rear panel of the Cantata Music Center. (e ON position is selected

when the “I” symbol on the switch is depressed.) e Cantata will begin in low-power standby mode. Press
the standby buon on either the front panel or the remote control. e Cantata Music Center will take a few
seconds to initialize and read the disc if present. Volume level is initially set to a low level (30).

5. Turn on the rest of your system. It is a good habit to turn the amplier on last, and o rst, to prevent surges

and transients from reaching your loudspeakers.

6. Insert a CD and press Play, or select an external input via the remote or front panel.

7. Adjust the volume. If you are using a preamplier, we recommend seing the level to maximum (100). e

volume seing can also be used to match the level of the Cantata Music Center to other source components,
in order to minimize the dierence when switching sources.
