Connecting with an XLR cable
The signal is converted to analog in the D/A converter of
this unit and then output to an integrated amplifier, for
example. Connect the XLR input jack on an integrated
amplifier to the ANALOG OUT jack (XLR jack) on this unit.
0The second pin in the jack of this unit is designated the
HOT (+) pin. Refer to the instruction manual of your
amplifier to see if the second pin of the XLR jack on your
amplifier supports HOT (+).
0When connecting via XLR cable and not connecting with
an analog audio cable, you can listen to even clearer
audio by setting the RCA ANALOG OUT switch to OFF.
0If the connected amplifier has an XLR input jack, it is
recommended to connect using an XLR cable.
Connecting with a digital optical cable
The signal is converted to analog in the D/A converter of the
integrated amplifier, for example. Connect the OPTICAL IN
jack on an integrated amplifier to the DIGITAL OUT
OPTICAL jack on this unit.
0The audio from SACD and DSD is not output from the
DIGITAL OUT OPTICAL jack of this unit.
0The digital signals that can be output by this unit are
linear PCM signals with a sampling frequency and
quantization bit rate of 192 kHz/24 bit (operation may not
be possible with all connected devices or environments).
Connecting with a digital coaxial cable
The signal is converted to analog in the D/A converter of the
integrated amplifier, for example. Connect the COAXIAL IN
jack on an integrated amplifier to the DIGITAL OUT
COAXIAL jack on this unit.
0The audio from SACD and DSD is not output from the
DIGITAL OUT COAXIAL jack of this unit.

The control jack
If you have multiple Pioneer brand devices, and if they have
CONTROL IN/OUT jacks, you can centrally control them
through the remote controller sensor on the amplifier, for
example. By connecting with monaural miniplug cables
(without resistors) as shown in the diagram, then even if this
unit and other devices are put in locations where they
cannot receive the remote controller signal, you can still use
the remote controller to control this unit or other devices by
pointing the remote controller at the remote controller
sensor on the amplifier, for example.
0Also make sure to connect with the analog audio cable.
Centralized control cannot work correctly with only the
control jack connection.
0The remote controller sensor on this unit stops working if
you connect a monaural miniplug cable (without resistor)
to the CONTROL IN jack of this unit.
0The remote controller sensors on the other devices stop
working if you connect a monaural miniplug cable
(without resistor) to the CONTROL OUT jack of this unit.
0If a Pioneer brand network player and amplifier is
connected by the CONTROL IN/OUT jack, you can
perform basic operations on this unit, the network player,
and amplifier on a smart phone app over a network.

Troubleshooting
Others
Before starting the procedure
When operation is unstable, problems may be solved by
simply turning the power on or to standby or disconnecting/
connecting the power cord, rather than reviewing settings
and operations. Try the simple measures on both the unit
and the connected device. If the problem isn't fixed after
referring to "Troubleshooting", resetting the unit to the
status at the time of shipment may solve the problem.
Resetting the unit (this resets the unit settings to
the default)
1. With the power on and no disc inserted, while pressing
and holding ∫ on the main unit, press DIRECT.
2. "CLEAR" is displayed, the unit switches to standby, and
the settings are reset.
∫Power
Cannot turn on the unit
0Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait
2 minutes or more, then plug it in again.
The unit turns off unexpectedly
0The unit automatically switches to standby when the
"AUTO STANDBY" setting in the SETUP menu functions.
The STANDBY indicator on the main unit continues to
flash red and operations are not possible
0Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, wait 2
minutes or more, then plug it in again. The indicator will
continue to flash, but press Í/I STANDBY/ON on the
main unit to turn the main power ON. If this doesn't fix the
issue, there may be a malfunction. Unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet and contact the dealer or our
customer support.

0It is possible that the display has been turned off by
pressing DISPLAY OFF. Press DISPLAY OFF to turn the

played.
0The disc tray opens if you insert a disc that this unit does
not support.
∫Audio
Sound is interrupted
0Narrowing the lock range too much with the LOCK
RANGE ADJUST setting can cause interruptions to
sound and also may cause noise. Sound interruptions
caused by adjustments to the lock range are not covered
by our guarantees of operation. Listen to some audio
while adjusting the lock range.
There is no digital sound
0Set "DIGITAL OUT" in the SETUP menu to "ON".
0Audio from SACD and DSD cannot be output digitally.

∫Discs that can be played
Precautions for Playback
0Compact discs (CDs) with the following logo on the label
surface can be used.
0Note that some discs may not play back because of the
disc characteristics, scratches, contamination or the
recording state.
Playing hybrid SACD
Hybrid SACD consist of two layers; the SACD layer and the
CD layer. Press CD/SACD to select the layer you want to
listen to.
Playing DualDisks
"DualDisk" is a disc with video and audio conforming to the
DVD standard on one side, and audio that can be played on
a CD player on the other.
On the audio side that is not the DVD side, play may not
always be possible due to the fact that the disc does not
conform to the physical specifications of standard CDs.
Operations during play
Direct search does not work while playing discs with music
data.
Types of discs that cannot be played on this unit
DVD Video, DVD Audio, CD-G, Video CD, DTS-CD
Notes on discs
0Be careful not to catch your hand or fingers when
opening or closing the disc tray.
0Never use discs which have an unusual shape (such as
hearts or octagons). These types of discs could jam and
damage the unit.
0Some audio CDs with copy-control functionality do not
comply with official CD standards. These are special
discs and cannot be played with this unit.
0Do not use discs with residue from cellophane tape,
rental discs with labels which are peeling off, or discs with
decorative labels. This type of disc could get stuck in the
unit, or could damage the unit.
0Do not leave a disc having a label printed with an inkjet
printer in the unit for a long time. The disc could get stuck
in the unit, or could damage the unit.
∫Precautions when moving the unit
When moving the unit, remove any discs in it and close the
disc tray. Then press Í/I STANDBY/ON on the main unit,
wait for 10 seconds after [OFF] disappears from the display,
and then unplug the power cord. Moving the unit while a
disc is still in it may cause damage.
∫Condensation
Drops of water can form inside this unit if it is taken from a
cold place to a warm room or when a cold room is rapidly
warmed by a heater. This is called condensation. This may
not only cause the unit to malfunction, but it can also
damage the disc or parts of the unit. We recommend
removing discs from the unit if it is not to be used for a
while. If there is a possibility that condensation has formed,
unplug the power cord and allow the unit to stand for at
least 3 hours at room temperature.
