UNPACKING AND SETTING UP

CAUTION: The CD player 069 and the external power supply unit (if existent) are very heavy. To avoid injuries while unpacking it is suggested that only personnel with experiences in heavy weights unpack the units.
CAUTION: The CD player 069 is shipped inside a plastic protective cover. Make sure that children do not play with it to avoid the danger of suffocation.

Unpacking

To avoid damaging the housing, please do not use pointed or sharp tools to open the box.

Please make sure that the content of the box is complete. If something is missing or you notice any damage while unpacking, do not hook up the unit. Instead, contact your authorized dealer.

Content of boxes

The two boxes should contain the following:

• 1 box with the CD player 069
• 1 CD clamp
• 1 base plate with 4 carbon fiber damping discs
• 1 remote control
• 1 power cord for connecting the CD player to the external power supply unit (if existent)
• 1 AC power cord
• 1 owner’s manual
• 1 box with the external power supply unit (if existent)
• 1 base plate with 4 carbon fiber damping discs for the external power supply (if existent)

Packaging

We recommend keeping the original packing in case the unit needs to be shipped in the future.

Setting up

Too low or too high temperatures may cause damage inside of the preamp. Therefore we recommend you leave the unit to adapt to room temperature, before using it for the first time.

Carefully remove the unit from its packaging and set it up in an appropriate location. To protect the 069 from overheating make sure that the location offers sufficient air circulation around the unit. Also, avoid excessive exposure to sun, dust and humidity.

Ventilation ducts and openings in the housing serve to keep the unit cool. They must not be covered up with magazines, table cloth, curtains etc.

If the 069 has to be operated in an extremely warm environment it may be necessary to supply additional ventilation. Avoid operating the unit in an excessively humid environment like bath rooms etc.

Set up variations

The feet of the CD player and of the power supply unit are constructed as spikes. They can  either be placed directly on the aluminum of the base plate or on the supplied carbon fiber damping discs. Using the carbon fiber damping discs additionally decouples the entire housing acoustically from the ground surface.

We recommend placing the CD player and the power supply unit onto the base plate with the carbon fiber damping discs.

CONNECTIONS

All terminals for hook up are located on the rear panel. While connecting the CD player, all components of the music system must be turned off.
There are various possibilities for connecting the CD player, depending upon the kind of audio components and auxiliary devices used. For the best connections please also refer to the owner’s manual of your audio components or auxiliary devices. The following explains the various hookup possibilities:
HOOKUP TO AN ANALOG PREAMP, INTEGRATED AMP OR POWER AMP
Analog outputs
To connect an analog pre amp, integrated amp or power amp the 069 offers balanced as well as unbalanced outputs (ANALOG OUTPUTS). If your amplifier provides balanced inputs, connect them to the terminals BALANCED R (36) and BALANCED L (39).
Unbalanced connections can be made using the terminals UNBAL (37). An analog recording device may be hooked up to the terminal TAPE (38).
For reasons of superior sound we recommend using balanced connections whenever possible. If you connect the CD player to an analog pre amplifier or integrated amplifier, we recommend choosing the setting FIX in the SETUP MENU. You will find this setting in the menu item OUTPUT.
CAUTION: If the CD player is connected directly to power amplifiers, you must choose the setting VARIABLE ! ! ! The setting FIX may destroy your loudspeakers, because the CD player delivers maximum level to the outputs ! ! !
The pinning of the balanced outputs are: PIN1=GND, PIN2=NEG, PIN3=POS.
HOOKUP TO A DIGITAL AMPLIFIER
Digital outputs
The player provides two DIGITAL OUTPUTS for connecting a digital amplifier:
The terminal TOTX (31) sends optical signals via optical cable with TOSHIBA- norm plugs.
The terminal RCA (32) requires a 75ohms coax cable with RCA plugs.
Choose whichever connection sounds best to you if your amplifier allows both types of hookup.
CAUTION: The terminal RCA (32) must not be connected to the analog input of an amplifier because this could damage the amp or the loudspeakers.
HOOKUP OF A DIGITAL SOURCE COMPONENT
Digital inputs
The CD player 069 offers three DIGITAL INPUTS for the connection of external digital source components such as DAT recorders or CD players:
The terminals RCA1 (35) and RCA2 (34) receive electronic signals and require 75ohms coax cable with RCA plugs.
The terminal TORX (33) receives optical signals and requires an optical cable with plugs according to TOSHIBA norm.
Choose whichever connection sounds best to you if your amplifier allows both types of hookup.
CAUTION: The digital inputs of the 069 can process PCM stereo data with a sample rate up to 96kHz.
HOOKUP OF AN ANALOG SOURCE COMPONENT
Analog inputs
The CD player 069 offers a balanced ANALOG INPUT for the connection of external analog source components such as a phono preamplifier or a FM-tuner for example.
The analog input terminals (27) and (28) are balanced connectors. If your analog source component offers only unbalanced connectors, you need two RCA to XLR connectors, which your can order at your local dealer.
The pinning of the balanced inputs are: PIN1=GND, PIN2=NEG, PIN3=POS.
ADDITIONAL CONNECTIONS
REMOTE
Connecting DC OUT (29) to the corresponding DC IN jack of another BURMESTER- unit offers to switch on or off this other unit simultaneous by the 069. In this case, 069 has the master function.
Connecting DC IN (30) to the corresponding DC OUT jack of another BURMESTER- unit offers to switch on or off the 069 simultaneous by the other unit. In this case, 069 has the slave function.
MMI slot (optional)
The MMI slot (26) offers to integrate future developments into the CD player 069, for example a multi media interface.
BURLINK
To the BURmester-LINK interface plugs (24), (25) a computer system like PC, CRESTRON™, AMX™ e.g. can be connected to the CD player 069. The computer system allows a comfortable control of your HiFi system using an individual programmable touch panel for example. With the LEDs beside the plugs named T and R (Transmit and Receive) you can check whether data exchange is working.

COMMANDS
Following are listed the possible commands to control the CD player 069. All commands needs to be sent in capital letters finished with a “carriage return“ \r .

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Please read these instructions and the owner´ s manual carefully and keep these instructions safely with the owner´ s manual of your component.
If you have any questions, we ask you to contact your dealer.
Operating temperature
An operating temperature that is too high or too low may cause malfunctioning. We therefore recommend letting the unit sit for a while after unpacking and before connecting and operating it.
Setting up
When choosing a place for your equipment please observe the following:

• Avoid direct sunlight.
• Do not subject the equipment to excessive heat, cold, humidity or dust.
• Provide adequate air circulation; avoid placing the equipment in enclosures.
• Slots and other openings in the housing are for ventilation. They must not be covered up.
• Please note that the component is not exposed to dripping water or splash water, also don´t place boxes with liquid in onto your component.
• Open flames like candles should not be placed on top of any electronic unit.

Mains voltage

• Check before operating the unit to see if the mains voltage setting shown on the back panel below the AC mains input conforms to the voltage of your household power supply.
  Any change should only be done by an expert only.

• For AC connection please use only the three-pronged power cable provided.
  The grounding pin should not be bypassed under any circumstances. Connect the component only to a wall outlet with fully functional grounding pin.

Comm. Operation

• Before installation switch off all components of a stereo system. Switch them back on only after making sure that any and all connections have been made correctly and completely.
• Never try to operate the equipment when it has obviously been damaged or if liquid has gotten into it.

Terminals
The pins of the connecting terminals on the back panel should not be touched by fingers under any circumstances. Static discharges may damage the electronic circuitry inside the unit.
Interconnects
We supply custom-made balanced as well as unbalanced interconnect cables and speaker cables of any length to ensure highest-quality signal paths for our components. The impedance of our cables is ideally matched to all BURMESTER components.
For the cleanest power supply we recommend our triple-shielded power cord BURMESTERPOWER.
IR receiver
The IR receiver receives signals from the BURMESTER remote control and must not be covered up by objects.
Heat development
Be careful when touching the housing – it may get quite warm during operation.
Reset
If the unit does not react when pressing the control keys on the front it may be reset to normal operation by switching it off and back on using the AC mains switch in the back.
Lightening strikes
During the summer months, malfunctions often occur due to voltage spikes in the power lines after lightning strikes. Completely unplugging the power cord offers the only effective protection. Merely switching the unit off does not suffice since voltage spikes are able to arc over separated contacts.
Fuses
