Introduction  
Thank you for purchasing your Sonata AR30/DR30. We are confident that you will  
enjoy many years of listening pleasure from it. Like all Cambridge Audio products, the  
Sonata AR30/DR30 adheres to three core principles – stunning performance, ease  
of use and incredible value.  
The Sonata AR30 and DR30 were jointly developed to offer truly uncompromised  
audiophile quality audio in a small convenient and stylish package. The Sonata AR30  
is a stereo receiver featuring high quality amplification with an in-built FM/AM tuner  
and supplied DD30 docking station for iPod. The US version of the AR30 additionally  
features a SIRIUS-Ready socket to allow satellite radio to be added in that country  
(requires a SIRIUS subscription).  
The Sonata DR30 is an alternative stereo receiver featuring the same amplification  
and DD30 iPod dock but with a DAB/FM tuner for countries which broadcast DAB  
digital radio.  
The supplied remote can control all of the Sonata AR30/DR30’s functions and those  
of an iPod when docked in the matching DD30 dock (supplied).  
The audio circuitry draws on all our previous experience and features a true discrete  
high power amplifier, linear power supply and low flux toroidal transformer. Alarm and  
Sleep timer functions are available and you may choose to wake to the Tuner or  
attached iPod. A temporary aerial is supplied to get you going, however the use of  
appropriate external AM/FM/DAB aerials is strongly recommended to really get the  
best from your Sonata AR30/DR30.  
Ultimate sound quality depends on the whole of your system, naturally we particularly  
recommend speakers from the Cambridge Audio Sirocco range as these have been  
designed for a perfect acoustic and aesthetic match. Your dealer can also supply  
excellent quality Cambridge Audio interconnects to ensure your system realises its full  
potential.  
Thanks for taking the time to read this manual; we do recommend you keep it for  
future reference.

Important safety instructions  
For your own safety please read the following important safety instructions carefully  
before attempting to connect this unit to the mains power supply. They will also enable  
you to get the best performance from and prolong the life of the unit:  
14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the  
apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as the power-supply cord or plug  
having been damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the  
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate  
normally, or has been dropped.  
1. Read these instructions.  
2. Keep these instructions.  
3. Heed all warnings.  
WARNING  
– To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or  
moisture.  
4. Follow all instructions.  
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.  
6. Clean only with a dry cloth.  
– Batteries (battery pack or batteries installed) shall not be exposed to excessive  
heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.  
The unit must be installed in a manner that makes disconnection of the mains plug  
from the mains socket outlet (or appliance connector from the rear of the unit)  
possible. Where the mains plug is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect  
device shall remain readily operable. Only use the mains cord supplied with this unit.  
7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the  
manufacturer's instructions.  
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or  
other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
Please ensure there is ample ventilation (at least 10cm clearance all round). Do not  
put any objects on top of this unit. Do not situate it on a rug or other soft surface and  
do not obstruct any air inlets or outlet grilles. Do not cover the ventilation grilles with  
items such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains, etc.  
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A  
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type  
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong  
are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet,  
consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.  
This unit must not be used near water or exposed to dripping or splashing water or  
other liquids. No objects filled with liquid, such as vases, shall be placed on the unit.  
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs,  
convenience receptacles and the point where they exit from the apparatus.  
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
12. Use with only the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the  
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use  
caution when moving the cart/ apparatus combination to avoid injury  
from tip-over.

Important safety instructions (continued)  
Ventilation  
IMPORTANT - The unit will become hot when in use. Do not stack multiple units on top  
of each other. Do not place in an enclosed area such as a bookcase or in a cabinet  
without sufficient ventilation.  
This unit has been designed to be left in standby mode when not in use as this will  
increase the life of the unit (this is true with all electronic equipment). To turn the unit  
off, switch off at the rear panel. If you do not intend to use this unit for a long period  
of time, unplug it from the mains socket.  
Ensure that small objects do not fall through any ventilation grille. If this happens,  
switch off immediately, disconnect from the mains supply and contact your dealer for  
advice.  
Overloading  
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or  
electric shock. Overloaded AC outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, damaged  
or cracked wire insulation, and broken plugs are dangerous. They may result in a shock  
or fire hazard.  
Positioning  
Choose the installation location carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to  
a source of heat. No naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, should be placed  
on the unit. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, cold or  
moisture. The unit can be used in a moderate climate.  
Be sure to insert each power cord securely. To prevent hum and noise, do not bundle  
the interconnect leads with the power cord or speaker leads.  
Cleaning  
This unit must be installed on a sturdy, level surface. Do not place in a sealed area  
such as a bookcase or in a cabinet. Any space open at the back (such as a dedicated  
equipment rack) is fine however. Do not place the unit on an unstable surface or shelf.  
The unit may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult as well as serious damage  
to the product. Do not place other equipment on top of the unit.  
To clean the unit, wipe its case with a dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use any cleaning fluids  
containing alcohol, ammonia or abrasives. Do not spray an aerosol at or near the unit.  
Battery disposal  
Batteries may contain substances harmful to the environment. Please dispose of any  
discharged batteries with due consideration and in accordance with local  
environmental/electronic recycling guidelines.  
Due to stray magnetic fields turntables or CRT TVs should not be located nearby due  
to possible interference.  
Electronic audio components have a running in period of around a week (if used  
several hours per day). This will allow the new components to settle down, the sonic  
properties will improve over this time.  
Loudspeakers  
Before making any connections to loudspeakers, make sure all power is turned off  
and only use suitable interconnects.  
Power sources  
The unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the  
marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power-supply to your home, consult your  
product dealer or local power company.  
Servicing  
These units are not user serviceable, never attempt to repair, disassemble or  
reconstruct the unit if there seems to be a problem. A serious electric shock could  
result if this precautionary measure is ignored. In the event of a problem or failure,  
please contact your dealer.

Loudspeakers  
Note: Do not plug in the mains power lead or turn on the unit until all connections  
have been made.

1 Loudspeakers  
Check the impedance of your speakers. Speakers with an impedance of between 4  
and 8 Ohms are recommended.  
The red coloured speaker terminals are positive (+) and the black speaker terminals  
are negative (-). Make sure correct polarity is maintained at each speaker connector  
or the sound can become weak and “phasey” with little bass.  
Prepare the speaker cords for connection by stripping off approximately 10mm (3/8”)  
or less of the outer insulation. More than 10mm could cause a short circuit. Twist the  
wires tightly together so there are no loose ends. Unscrew the speaker terminal knob,  
insert the speaker cable, tighten the knob and secure the cable.

Aerials  
4
Note: Sonata AR30 and DR30 are supplied with a temporary aerial for initial use. For  
permanent use, outdoor aerials are highly recommended.  
AM loop aerial  
Connect each end of the single length antenna to the antenna terminals. Place the  
antenna as far from the main system as possible to prevent unwanted noise and to  
obtain optimum reception. If the AM loop aerial provided does not receive sufficient  
reception, it may be necessary to use an outdoor AM aerial.  
Trigger outputs/Power syncing  
Your Sonata AR30 or DR30 can automatically power on or switch into Standby, a  
matching Sonata CD30 CD player or DV30 DVD player. The Sonata CD30 and DV30  
comes with a trigger lead for this purpose.  
To enable this feature:  
1. Switch off all Sonata units.  
2. Connect one of the provided trigger lead between your source equipment and the  
corresponding trigger connection at back of the Sonata AR30 or DR30 unit (e.g.  
connect the Sonata AR30 or DR30 CD trigger output to the Sonata CD30 trigger  
input).  
FM aerial  
Connect the supplied aerial to the FM 75 ohm socket. Extend and move the aerial  
lead around until you get the best reception. For continued use, we strongly  
recommend using a 75ohm outdoor FM aerial.  
SIRIUS ready (US version only)  
The SIRIUS socket allows the connection of a SIRIUS satellite radio reception module  
(require subscription). Consult your dealer for more information.  
3. Switch all Sonata units back on.  
Now, when the CD or DVD sources are selected on the Sonata AR30 or DR30, the  
appropriate Sonata source equipment will switch on. Conversely, when a different  
source is selected, the appropriate Sonata source will go into Standby, also when the  
Sonata AR30 or DR30 is put in standby mode, all the Sonata units will also go into  
Standby.
