PRODUCT FEATURES  
This unit can playback the outstanding sound  
performance in Super Audio CD. This unit has the  
following unique features.  
APPLICABLE DISCS TO THE UNIT  
1. Super Audio CD  
BEFORE USING  
NOTES ABOUT THE DISCS  
* Handle the discs carefully so as not to scratch  
their surfaces.  
* Keep the surfaces of the discs clean at all times.  
When cleaning the surfaces of discs, always be  
sure to use the special cleaner and wipe the  
surfaces in the directions shown in the figure below.  
Low-noise low-distortion filter circuit and high-  
speed current-feedback-type output amplifier with  
the differential input type HDAM.  
Audio CDs contain music tracks only.  
There are three types of Super Audio CDs.  
Text information display function that can display  
disc titles, track titles etc. in Super Audio CD.  
Single-layer Disc  
Dual-layer Disc  
Hybrid-layer Disc  
CD-R/CD-RW discs can be played.  
ABOUT SUPER AUDIO  
Disc Types  
Hybrid-layer Disc  
CD layer HD layer  
Dual-layer Disc  
The Super Audio standard is based on Direct Stream  
Digital (DSD) technology. This new direct-stream  
digital format comprises a 1-bit system that has a  
digital sampling frequency that is 64 times higher than  
that of conventional audio CD. The results are  
spectacular: a frequency response of over 100k Hz  
and a 120 dB dynamic range over the entire audible  
spectrum. Mixed with as many of the original  
frequencies as possible, the audio information  
audible for human ears sounds much more natural.  
All audible frequencies are, after all, embedded in  
the frequency range as emitted by the sound source.  
A better reproduction does not exist! For the first time  
your ears will relive reality.  
Single-layer Disc  
HD layer  
HD layer  
Do not wipe the surface in  
t h e c i r c u m fe r e n t i a l  
direction.  
Wipe the surface  
radially from the  
center.  
And each type may contain two areas of recorded  
information.  
* Do not attach pieces of paper or stickers to the  
label surfaces of the discs.  
High quality stereo area  
When a disc has a piece of plastic tape or rental  
CD label with paste protruding from the edge or  
when a disc still bears traces of sticky tape or  
adhesive labels, do not attempt to play it. If such a  
disc is played on the CD player, you may find that  
you cannot remove it or that some other kind of  
malfunctioning may occur.  
High quality multi-channel area**  
Single Layer Disc  
It can contain both high quality stereo area and  
high quality multi-channel area** information.  
Dual Layer Disc  
PLAYING CD-RW DISCS  
This unit can play back the CD-RW (ReWritable)  
discs as well as ordinary Audio CD and CD-R  
(Recordable) discs.  
It can contain both high quality stereo area and  
high quality multi-channel area** information. And  
a double amount of information can be stored on  
the disc thanks to the second layer.  
Hybrid Layer Disc  
The CD-R and CD-RW discs should contain  
properly-recorded TOC information so that they  
can be played back. In CD recorders, the task of  
writing TOC information is referred to as finalizing  
the disc. Discs that are not finalized cannot be  
properly recognized as an Audio CD and played  
back by regular CD players and Super Audio CD  
players. For details, please read the instruction  
manual provided with a CD recorder.  
Not only does this disc contain both high sound  
quality stereo area and high sound quality multi-  
channel area** information, it also has a CD layer  
in the second layer, so it can be played on a CD  
player.  
* Do not use discs which come in special shapes.  
Do not attempt to play heart-shaped or octagonal  
discs or discs with any other special shapes. You  
may find that you cannot remove them or that some  
other kind of malfunctioning may occur in the player.  
Hybrid Super Audio  
CD Disc  
* TOC stands for Table Of Contents and contains  
information such as the total number of tracks  
and total playing time of the disc.

CD layer that plays on any of your  
existing CD players  
High-Density layer containing:  
- High sound quality stereo  
This unit can play only the discs recorded in the  
CD-DA format designed for music reproduction.  
Do not attempt to play a disc containing other  
data, such as a CD-ROM for PCs, on this unit.

-
High sound quality multi-channel**  
* Use discs which satisfy the CD standards such  
as those with the “CD logo” or “  
their disc label surfaces.  
” mark on  
As the playback of a CD-RW disc necessitates  
partial change of the player setup, it may take  
longer time for reading the TOC information than  
when an Audio CD or CD-R disc is played.  
The number of tracks recorded may vary per layer. It  
will be shown on the display window of the unit.  
No guarantees are made for playback if discs which  
do not satisfy the appropriate CD standards are  
used.  
Similarly, no guarantees are made for their sound  
quality even if it is possible to play such discs.  
** This unit is a stereo-only player, and so it cannot  
play high-quality multi-channel audio areas. (It  
does not recognize multi-channel areas.)

which is tilted at an angle  
When batteries which are no longer required  
are to be discarded, follow the directions  
(regulations) laid down by the local authorities  
in the area concerned for their disposal.  
In winter, droplets of water form on the insides of  
the windows of a heated room: this is called  
condensation. This player uses an optical lens,  
so the condensation may form in the following  
cases.  
In an audio rack with little space at the top and  
bottom or other location where the heat  
dissipation will be obstructed  
To ensure proper heat dissipation, install the  
player while leaving clearances between the  
player and wall or other components, as shown  
in the figure below.

* Start sound mode has a memory retention function  
where the settings remain stored and unchanged  
even when the disc is changed or the power is

* Noise shaping is a type of digital feedback used in  
the algorithms for oversampling. This digital  
feedback enables improved linearity for low levels  
(-70 to -90 dB) and better noise characteristics in  
the audible band. However, this digital feedback is  
still feedback nonetheless. Generally, in amplifiers  
and other equipment, the sound quality changes  
based on the amount of feedback. Low feedback is  
said to result in poor audio characteristics but good  
sound.  
Although no measurement differences are shown  
in the SA-11S1, the sound quality is changed.
