CD Player  
NOTE: Before installing your new component, please read this manual  
carefully as it will inform you of the product specifications, proper  
installation and correct operating procedures for your unit. Also included  
in this manual are guidelines on how to service and care for your new  
Cary Audio Design product.  
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
WARNING: The triangle with the lightning flash symbol  
displayed on the unit advises the user of dangerous un-  
insulated voltage inside the product’s enclosure.  
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not  
remove the cover. There are no user-serviceable parts  
inside; it is recommended that only qualified personnel  
service this component.  
ALERT: The triangle with the exclamation point symbol on the component suggests that the owner refer to  
important operating and maintenance instructions in the owner’s manual.  
1. OWNER’S MANUAL: Before powering up the equipment, read all safety and operating instructions and follow  
them as instructed. Retain the safety and operating instructions for future reference.  
2. ATTACHMENTS: Use only those attachments recommended by the unit manufacturer, as others may cause  
hazards.  
3. ACCESSORIES: Do not place the unit on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The unit may fall,  
causing injury to a person or damage to the unit. Mount the unit according to the manufacturer’s instructions with  
the suggested mounting accessory.  
4. WALL OR CEILING MOUNTING: Mount the unit to a wall or ceiling only in the manner recommended by the  
manufacturer.  
5. WATER AND MOISTURE: Do not use the unit near water (for example, near a swimming pool, bath tub, wash  
bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub) or in a damp environment (like a basement or outside in the rain).  
6. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY: Do not push objects of any kind into the unit through openings as they could touch  
dangerous voltage points and short-out parts, possibly resulting in a fire or electric shock. Avoid spilling liquid of any  
kind on the unit. If water or any metal object (such as a paper clip, coin, or staple) accidentally falls inside the unit,  
disconnect it from the AC power source immediately and contact Cary Audio Design for further instructions.  
7. HEAT: Position the unit away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other units (including  
amplifiers) that produce heat.  
8. VENTILATION: Slots and openings in the cabinet create ventilation to protect the component from overheating.  
These openings on the top and bottom panels must remain unobstructed. Allow at least 6 inches (16cm) of clearance  
above the unit and an opening behind the unit for airflow. Do not place the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, built-in  
bookcase, or rack without adequate ventilation.  
9. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION: As a safety feature, the unit may be equipped with a polarized alternating  
current line plug in which one blade is wider than the other. This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If  
you cannot insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still will not fit, contact a licensed  
electrician to update your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.  
10. POWER SOURCES: Operate the unit only from the power source indicated on the marking label. If you are  
unsure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your unit dealer or local power company.  
11. POWER CORD PROTECTION: Arrange power supply cords so that they do not suffer from foot traffic or pinching  
by items placed on or against them. Pay close attention to cords where plug enter the AC outlet and where they exit  
from the unit.  
12. LIGHTNING: For added protection during a lightning storm or when is the component is idle for long periods of  
time, unplug the unit from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will help protect the  
unit from lightning and power line surge damage.  
13. POWER LINES: Do not locate an outside antenna system in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric  
light or power circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, take extreme care to avoid touching the power  
lines or circuits; contact with them could be fatal.  
14. OVERLOADING: Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this  
increases the risk of fire or electric shock.  
2
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS  
15. REPLACEMENT PARTS: When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used  
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or those having the same characteristics as the original parts.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock or other hazards.  
16. SAFETY CHECK: Upon completion of any service or repairs to the unit, ask the service technician to perform  
safety checks to ensure the unit is in proper operating condition.  
17. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE:  
Before connecting a new product such as the CD 303T to your audio or home theater system, turn off all other  
equipment (preferably unplugging them from the AC power source). Many audio components feature automatic  
turn-on circuits that may activate during an installation, potentially causing damage to electronic components  
and/or speakers. This type of damage is not covered by product warranties, and Cary Audio specifically disclaims  
responsibility for any such damage.  
Power Cord: The removable power cord provided with your player was specifically designed  
for use with this product, but other AC cords may be used. Consult your dealer for advice on AC  
power cords and high quality wire in your system.  
AC Fuse: The fuse is located inside the chassis and is not user serviceable. If the unit does not power up,  
contact an authorized service representative  
Wiring: Cables running inside walls should have the appropriate markings to indicate compliance and listing by  
the UL, CSA or other standards required by the UL, CSA, NEC or your local building code. Questions about  
cables inside of walls should be referred to a qualified custom installer, a licensed electrician, or low-voltage  
contractor.  
18. RECORDING COPYRIGHT: Recording of copyrighted material for other than personal use is illegal without  
permission of the copyright holder.  
19. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to  
article 820-40 of the NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies  
that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry  
as practical.  
20. FCC INFORMATION FOR USER:  
CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Cary  
Audio Design could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.  
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits  
for a Class B digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential  
installation. This equipment generates and can radiate radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used in  
accordance with the instructions it may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is  
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful  
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the  
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:  
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.  
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from where the receiver is  
connected.  
21. OUTDOOR ANTENNA INSTALLATION/SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTION:  
If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the equipment,  
be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded in order to provide  
protection against built-up static charges and voltage surges. Article  
810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada, Part 1  
of the Canadian Electrical Code) provides information regarding proper  
grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the  
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding  
conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to  
grounding electrodes and requirements for the grounding electrode.  
Outside antenna system should be located well away from power lines,  
electric light or power circuits and where it will never come into  
contact with these power sources if it should happen to fall. When  
installing an outside antenna, extreme care should be taken to avoid  
touching power lines, circuits or other power sources as this could be  
fatal. Because of the hazards involved, antenna installation should be  
left to a professional.

WELCOME  
PRODUCT OVERVIEW  
Cary Audio Design would like to thank you for purchasing the new CD-500 player. The CD-500  
is the latest in a series of optical disc players that use a specially selected  
Read Only Memory (ROM) drive for reading the disc. The ROM drive allows multiple  
passes to be made, ensuring that the correct data is recovered from the disc and improves the  
standard Compact Disc's error-correction capabilities by a factor of 100. It also allows complete  
buffering of the recovered data.  
To ensure the lowest possible jitter in the digital circuitry, the CD-500 incorporates three buffers.  
Two of these buffers are configured as ‘First In First Out’ buffers (FIFO). By the time the data is  
passed to the Digital to Analog Converters (DACs) or to the digital output, the jitter is incredibly  
low - in fact the CD-500 has the lowest jitter we have ever measured on a CD player - around 90  
picoseconds, with the jitter spectrum held below  
0.1 Hz.  
The signal path includes proprietary design error correction and concealment, and Cary  
Audio Design’s acclaimed 'Resolution Enhancement' DSP circuitry, in which the original  
44.1 kHz, 16-bit audio is first expanded to 24 bits and then can be upsampled to 96, 192,  
384, 512 and 768 kHz in one of three 190 Millions of Instructions Per Second (MIPS) processors  
operating with 48-bit internal precision. This is 'true' DSP upsampling, unlike anything else  
available in the marketplace.  
The CD-500 incorporates HDCD decoding capabilities. It has 192kHz, 24 bit Burr Brown  
1792u DAC chips in the critical digital to analog converter section. The CD-500 contains audio  
grade Elna capacitors in the audio circuit for incredible bass, extremely musical midrange, and  
extended highs.  
Cary Audio Design firmly believes in high performance products that offer incredible value for  
the money. With its leading edge technology, exceptional sound performance and ease of use,  
the CD-500 offers exceptional performance in its class.  
Thank you for your continued support.
