File this owner's manual in a safe place so you don’t misplace it. Save the carton and packing inserts in
case you ever have to ship or move your C/DP-1000. Find the serial number which is printed on the
unit’s rear panel and note it here for future reference or in case of casualty loss or theft:
_________________________

Placement

Your C/DP-1000 should be placed on a level and sturdy surface, out of direct sunlight. It should be in a
well-ventilated area, away from heating ducts or radiators. The area must be free of dust or excessive
humidity.

The location should be stable and isolated from speakers or foot steps to minimize vibrations which
could interfere with the sensitive optical laser and thereby require the error correction circuits to engage
for other than defects in the CDs themselves. Your unit will simply sound better.

The unit should not be placed near any component which generates a strong magnetic field, such as a
power amplifier. Do not place directly on top of an amplifier which may generate excessive heat.

It is also wise not to place any CD player nearby your tuner or TV since digital circuitry uses very high
frequency signals which could cause interference with clear broadcast reception, or conversely the
tuner’s radiations from its local oscillator will pollute the clarity of CD reproduction.

If you have any doubts about a correct location for your C/DP-1000, call your Parasound dealer for
further advice.
