Digital Output The Ayre C-5xe MP features a balanced AES/EBU digital audio output on the rear of the unit. This output is used when connecting to a digital recording unit or other device, such as an external digital-to-analog converter (DAC). Additional information regarding the digital output may be found in the chapter “Optimization and Customi[...]

AC Power The Ayre C-5xe MP may be plugged directly into an unswitched wall outlet. Although proprietary RFI (radio-frequency interference) filtering is built into the disc player, in some situations an AC power-line filter (such as those offered by Ayre) may provide additional sonic benefits. Break-In Playing music with the unit for 100 to 500 hour[...]

Navigation of Discs The Ayre C-5xe MP universal stereo player will play every currently available audio disc format. Each type of music disc has a structure to aid in navigation , that is, locating and playing the desired music on each disc. While there is an overall similarity, each disc format utilizes a different navigational structure. Understa[...]

SACD SACDs use a system of numbered tracks for navigation, just as CDs do. In addition, an SACD will provide distinct areas when multi-channel tracks are present in addition to the normal stereo tracks. Each audio format (multi-channel or stereo) is contained is its own separate area. The Ayre C-5xe MP will always play the stereo area of an SACD, i[...]

may have one group with a stereo mix sampled at 192 kHz with a resolution of 24 bits, while a second group may have a multi-channel (surround sound) mix sampled at 96 kHz with a resolution of 24 bits. Typically there are several different groups on a DVD-A disc. Normally each group contains the same number of tracks, each with the same musical sele[...]

DVD-Audio Navigation Pressing “Play” while the DVD-A disc is stopped will automatically begin play at Track 1 of Group 1. Many DVD-A discs were designed to be played while using a video display for navigation of the on-screen menu.

The main feature is almost always found in Title 1, and this is the title that would normally be played when using the C-5xe MP . Virtually all DVD-V discs will auto-play upon insertion. However, many discs will begin playing a menu that is designed to be navigated by using a video display. In this case the front panel display shows “ MENU ”. S[...]

Optimization and Customization The Ayre C-5xe MP is configured at the factory to provide the best performance for a typical installation. In certain situations you may wish to change the default configuration for optimal performance in your system, using small toggle switches on the rear of the unit. The default configuration settings (all switches[...]

A switch on the rear panel allows the digital audio output to be turned off if its use is not required. Turning the digital output “off” when not using it will result in slightly higher sound quality through the analog outputs. A second switch sets the sample rate available at the digital output. Selecting “44/48 kHz” will down-sample high [...]

Digital Filter The digital filter of the Ayre C-5xe MP features two user-selectable algorithms. A selector switch is located on the rear panel. One algorithm produces greater accuracy in the time domain and is labeled “Listen”. The other algorithm produces greater accuracy in the frequency domain and is labeled “Measure”. Normally the selec[...]
