X-PLORA V8
GENERAL ADVICE
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS and USER INFORMATION
Your new X-PLORA V8 is designed and built to provide trouble-free performance, but as with all electronic devices it
is necessary to observe a few precautions:
Heed all warnings shown on the back of the product.
Only connect the X-PLORA V8 to a mains outlet having the same voltage as marked at the back of the unit.
Always ensure that when disconnecting and reconnecting your audio equipment the mains supply is switched
off.
Position the mains lead and signal interconnects where they are not likely to be walked on or trapped by items
placed on them.
Do not use near water, or place water-filled containers on the X-PLORA V8, for example, a flower vase or
potted plants. If water does spill inside, immediately pull out the mains plug from the wall socket and
inform your dealer, who should then check the unit before further use. Entry of liquid into the X-
PLORA V8 is dangerous, and may cause electric shock or fire hazard.
Do not place the unit near direct heat sources such as radiators, direct sunlight or other equipment.
Do not remove any covers or try to gain access to the inside. There are no internal adjustments or fuses you
can replace yourself. Refer all service work to an authorised Musical Fidelity agent.
Note: Unauthorised opening of the equipment will invalidate any warranty claim.
Dust regularly with a soft cloth or soft brush but be careful when using cleaning or polishing agents - they may
harm the surface finish.
The electronics in modern hi-fi equipment is complex and may, therefore, be adversely affected or damaged by
lightning. For protection of your audio system during electrical storms, remove the mains plugs and disconnect any
aerial lead.
If after-sales service is required, to help your dealer identify the X-PLORA V8 please quote the serial number located
on the rear panel of the unit.

X-PLORA V8
INSTALLATION
INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your new X-PLORA
POWER CONNECTION
V8
The power lead should be connected to a Musical Fidelity
power supply unit designed for this product, such as the
TRIPLE-X (see your dealer for more information). The
connector from this tuner mates with the 4-way socket
labelled X-PLORAV8 on the rear of the power supply unit.
The connector should fit comfortably with a small click when
properly seated. Do not force the connector.
DAB/FM tuner.
The X-PLORA
V8
is an advanced DAB/FM receiver with
radio text features for FM. Its case design complements the X-
V8
series components which include an Integrated amplifier
and CD player all in the same convenient size.
The tuner is designed to bring DAB into the realms of hi-
fidelity sound reproduction to complement the very latest
technology DAB/FM receiver circuit. Great attention has been
paid to internal layout, isolating each circuit section to prevent
possible interaction. The result is a DAB/FM tuner which has
a smoother response than previously possible with none of the
“hardness” of other units.
The resultant performance achieved by this unit is among the
best in the world. It has excellent signal to noise ratio, low
distortion, extraordinary resolution and fine detail.
CLEANING
Before cleaning the unit, switch off power at the mains
switch and remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
Clean the cabinet and remote control unit using a moist cloth.
We do not advise using solvents, white spirit or thinners as
they could damage the surface finish.
UPGRADE PATH
Early in 2007 two interesting new X-V8 series products are
coming.
- The TRIPLE-X170 PSU is an upgrade Power Supply Unit.
It increases the power of your X-T100 to 85+85 wpc and
improves its peak current. The TRIPLE-X170 PSU will power
the X-T100, X-RAYV8 and X-PLORAV8 simultaneously. Any
product connected to it will sound better.
- The X-DACV8 is a super-performance Digital to Analogue
Converter with a tube output. Its performance is verging on
state-of-the-art and sounds extraordinary. The X-DACV8 is
self-powered and also has power supply outlets for the X-
RAYV8 and X-PLORAV8. When the X-RAYV8 is paired with
the X-DACV8, what you have is a mini KW25 system (the
KW25 Transport/DAC received incredible reviews which
recon it’s probably the best CD player ever).
INSTALLATION
Position the X-PLORA
V8
on a stable, horizontal surface
where there is no risk of it being knocked, or subjected to
vibration such as from loudspeakers.
AERIAL (ANTENNA)
For ease of installation, a tri-band aerial is supplied with the
unit. This covers the FM, DAB II, III and L-bands and picks
up sufficient signal for most domestic purposes. However, if
FM stereo background noise is obtrusive, radio text is
corrupted or DAB cut-out is experienced, or unit is to be used
in a fringe area, a rooftop DAB and FM aerial may be
required. Please contact an approved aerial contractor with
good local knowledge.
The tri-band aerial is plugged into the tri-band antenna F
connector at the rear of the unit, and should be securely
fastened by tightening the nut.
AUDIO CONNECTIONS
Outputs: Connect your amplifier’s left and right TUNER or
AUX (line level) inputs to the RCA sockets on the back panel
marked as LEFT and RIGHT outputs.
If desired, the unit can also be attached to an external DAC
of your choice. The unit outputs COAX and OPTICAL digital
signal stream at 48kHz.
NOTE: The digital output works for DAB and FM.

fit comfortably with a small click when properly seated.
The power connector from the X-RAYV8 mates with
the 5-way socket labelled X-RAYV8 on the rear of the
X-DACV8.The connector should fit comfortably with a
small click when properly seated.
3-component setup, upgraded power supply
The XT-100 integrated amplifier should be powered
from the upgrade TRIPLE-X170 power supply unit.
Connect your XT-100 to this supply through the 6-way
XLR socket at the back. The X-PLORAV8 and X-
RAYV8 are now supplied from the X-DACV8. This frees
up reserve supply for the power amplifiers in the
XT100.

This is by no means an exhaustive list, as it is possible
to use the original TRIPLE-X power supply, say, to
supply the CD player alone further isolating it from the
DAC and other circuits. The beauty of this system is its
incredibly flexible allowing considerable tweaking to
obtain optimum audio performance.
Figure 2
The upgraded 3-component setup using the TRIPLE-
X170 PSU (bottom left) is shown in figure 2.
The wiring is identical to that given under the standard
setup shown above. Simply remove the TRIPLE-X PSU
and use the TRIPLE-X170 PSU in its place.

REMOTE CONTROL
The remote control shown below enables functions to be operated from a convenient distance. Equivalent buttons on the remote
control have the same functions as those on the front panel of the unit. Other functions are only available by remote control.
As the handset uses an invisible infra-red light beam, the front edge must be pointed directly towards the receiver window at the
front of the player, without visual obstruction between them.
If the range of the remote control greatly decreases, replace the batteries with new ones. Do not mix old and new batteries - two are
required, size AAA, LR03 or SUM-4.
Please dispose of used batteries in accordance to local regulations.
